I try to explain to leftists how we right-thinking people are BOMBARDED with far-left propaganda on a daily basis. TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, everything pushes the latest far-left talking points.
I explain that we're used to hearing 'opposing' viewpoints and used to dealing with them. It is the leftists who have never even heard a right-thinking viewpoint and are shocked to discover them.
They cannot grasp this, they think it's made-up. By doing so (rejecting new ideas) they prove it, but that too is lost on them 😋
They will turn around and moan about "right wing media" as if that's even a thing. The existence of Fox News justifies their fantasy of being the underdog rather than the empire that's busy crushing everything underfoot.
They think because so many media outlets say the same thing then that must mean they're unbiased. They can't even comprehend that most of the media is actually far-left.
They don't even realize that they are far-left. It's like trying to explain water to a fish.
Of course you could easily point out how much the Overton window has shifted, and how opinions that were considered leftist 10 years ago are considered far-right today. But then they'll insist that everything was worse in the past. "Don't believe your nostalgia!"
