A Civil War is being fought on the internet. That is not hyperbole. In some ways there is a very The Matrix feel to all this...not literally, but the cocoon is the media created reality bubble, and everyone in the “alternative” media are the people in the stark ship.
Then you have the guy who says “I know this steak isn’t real....but....”
I know the two that made that movie are hardly on the “right”, but there sure are a lot of analogies to that movie going on.
I have been making the same Matrix analogy for a long time. Donald Trump is offering to unplug us from the system is sucking the life out of us for their own benefit. Some people would rather pretend that everything is “real” when it really isn’t, like the fake steak.
