Fox News aired this to scare the public (Bluesky)

[orangecrush]

These all sound like excellent ideas.

1. The idea of actual good government scares people.

[RandySF]

2. Don't tease me with a good time, Fox.

[Aussie105]

3. Am I missing something?

I don't see anything scary there.

7 ticks of approval from me on that graphic.

But if you are a low brow American who needs to feel downtrodden and hard done by, I guess those ideas are rather threatening.
Their Rage Against the System would be seriously weakened.
And that, just isn't on!

Fox left out an important one though - neuter the industrial military complex that is sucking the lifeblood out of America.

4. It is the "for all" that scares Fox viewers.

[ColoringFool]

7. The usual response is that the viewer worked hard for what....

he has, and therefore everyone else ought to.

Which response one must needs sympathize with, because our cut-throat Capitalism is cruel to and exploitative of the Working Poor.

We Left-leaning Democrats are thus compelled to make the case for the future, a difficult task when voters are inclined to think only of their now.

13. It scares the working people who see the other working people under them. Not worthy

I noticed that many years ago at a computer place I worked. I found out how non college workers were treated by the college guys.
A kid I had known since he was 14 had gone to work where I was working after he got out of college. I did the lan installations and hardware work. While riding in the back seat of the car with him and another college employee in the front seats. I had to listen to them the whole drive back with them talking about how useless non college people were.

I see the counter argument now with adults not wanting their kids going to college since all the do is "get high on drugs and party."

There is a lot of "those people" sentiment everywhere.

14. That kind of mindset leaves me speechless.

[LiberalArkie]

15. That is why college graduates in the poorer South is kind of non existent.

[orangecrush]

11. Definitely

[Renew Deal]

20. There is truth to that

There are people that are opposed to healthcare because they are worried that it will clog the system and they won't be able to get care themselves.

[LilElf70]

5. After seeing all the

money this administration has pissed away, I don't see why we can't pass all of them NOW!!!!! They've proven we can afford this......and more.

[orangecrush]

12. Great point

[BurnDoubt]

6. I think someone should mention that...

This regime exhibits the behaviors that made the Communists regimes unpopular with their subjects.
Brutality.
Censorship.
Repression.
Oppression.
Regression.
“Unitary Executive”.
Secret Police.
Concentration Camps.
Death Squads.
Militia Thugs.
Extra-Judicial Summary Executions.
Corrupt Judiciary.
Corrupt Executive Branch.
Corrupt Legislative Branch.
Loyalty Oaths.
Religious Persecution.
Feel free to add any I have neglected to mention…..

“Balanced Reporting” might include an in-depth investigation into how Democratic Socialism works in the Nations utilizing this form of governance and how people’s lives are affected. Until that comes to pass, they’re only spreading Right-Wing Bullshit and should be called on it by OTHER NEWS ORGANIZATIONS, and make them back it with facts. Do their homework for them if necessary, then rub their noses in it.

Why Not?

9. I've said all along...

...what cost us the 2024 election was student loan forgiveness.

It was the tipping point for many of the people I live with and work with in a red state.

They see educated people as the enemy, and then they were told they had to cover the cost of that education.

[yardwork]

10. The loan forgiveness was for people who had been paying high interest for decades.

My sister, for instance, had paid off much more than her original loan. But because she was mostly paying interest, even after decades of paying she still owed almost the same as her original loan.

The U.S. government and private lenders made a ton of money off people who just wanted to get a degree. It was predatory lending.

Biden did the right thing and should have been allowed to continue. The billionaire-owned "news" media misrepresented the loan forgiveness program as a way to upset people, turn on their resentments and racism, and get them to vote for Trump.

They do this with everything, they ruin everything.

[Vinca]

16. Terrifying.

[peggysue2]

17. Scary only to the . . .

Rich and powerful who fear America truly waking up.

[Kaleva]

18. About 5% of the adult population watches Fox News

[durablend]

19. And then they go on social media and convince another 20%

[Kaleva]

22. Combined, it's still a small minority

[Danascot]

21. Fox news

is making campaign signs for Dems now?
