Discernment is dead and we are f**ked. Community notes are after the fact and useless. 

In 2016, folks making fake news (for clicks and profit) targeted various political folks. One group repeatedly bought into the various conspiracies and shared the bogus articles the most, and so the fake news folks focused on them. Which group? The Trumpers. 

Most of these current posts are geared towards that same group and they eat it up. Sorry but it's the truth. At least on this platform. That's not to say that it doesn't happen on the other side but not to this magnitude.

Why the Trumpers? Because they're convinced Dems/Libs/the radical left are evil and hate this country. So if you write a post or story that follows that narrative, they immediately believe it. Pretty sad.
