they nailed the core message: Americans aren't paying attention and taking the media at face value, which got Bush reelected, the patriot act enacted, and secured more forever wars in the middle east. In the early 00s, this was 100% attributable to right wing media influence.
That just isn't the case anymore. The right has no media influence, yet everything is still shit in all of the above. but now that the media is all left-wing influence, the entertainment class thinks it's all just those stupid MAGAtards. they will literally perform a song that is a complete condemnation of them and everything that they do, yet change that one line and they think they are still the scrappy rebels fighting the power.
After Obama's presidency, I'm 100% convinced that if Gore or Kerry had gotten in in place of Bush, we'd still be almost exactly where we are today. Those worthless fucks would have let the "intelligence" agencies run the country exactly the same way Bush did.
Though if they had gotten in instead of Bush, maybe Obama wouldn't have been able to ride the wave of anti-incompetent-establishment sentiment to the white house... Which would have been a big win, because Obama is probably the most corrupt, partisan political hack to have inhabited the office in my entire lifetime.

Even at the time, the Neo-Cons had a middling influence, almost entirely due to the Evangelicals being used to propel their careers.
