I’m so sick of the lying. Everyone in power is so casually lying without fear of consequences. Lying used to be a shameful thing to do. How do we get back to that?
Edit: How do we call them out on it? Social media attack? How much does it cost to post ads on all the popular media platforms? Even though it gives money to billionaires in the short term, maybe the public crucifixion would be worth it.
The asterisk is doing all the heavy lifting in that ad
"Potatoe" HA! Can't even spell potato, definitely not leadership material
Remember this gem?
Asking how the cashier scan gun worked.
Giving a too enthusiastic cheer.
A lot of that stuff depended on a competent opposition that was able to get those moments playing over and over again until everyone had seen them 7 times.
Our problem is we try to refute these shitheads' points one by one so people hear about it once then forget about it and move on.
Republicans are very good at taking one stupid thing about democrats and repeating it over and over again until everyone has heard it a dozen times, a dozen years later. People still mention Obama promising you could keep your doctor on the ACA plan. It's this repetition that allows stupid Americans to understand and internalize their messages.
Lying became a means to an end. Police officers lie to get anyone arrested to fill their quotas. Politicians lie to get elected over someone who might actually be honest. Corporations lie to protect their bottom line. It's just a tool for these ghouls now.
Word of mouth, I avoid ads so I wont see this but comment everywhere about how this is a lie.

I’m not tech savvy but I use an ad blocker. I think most people either don’t know they exist or don’t care.
That makes you more tech savvy than a large portion of average users. Just knowing they exist, and how to implement one means you're at least savvy enough to:
See numbered list above 😉
