Liberal outlets need to start doing “drumbeat” coverage of the real villains in America like the way right wing media pushes stories about immigrants and lgbtq. We need stories about evil insurance companies and church/cop pedos to highlight the rot of conservatism.

Elon Musk's propaganda site is positively full of puce-faced men screaming that 'they stand with farmers' who don't want to pay more in tax to fund public services.
