Post-truth era

Yesterday I heard someone on the radio talking about how we now live in a post-truth era. How we had the "real fake" news cycle during the presidential campaign and how Donald Trump & company turned that on its head in recent weeks. Blablabla Blablabla ... all as if this is something that just happened.

.

Hell, no! It didn't just happened. You, talking radiohead, and friends, are idiots! You have no clue of what you are saying. Fake news, "alternative facts", historical re-writes, have been the bread and butter of the Trump base for many years, decades even. 

.

You must have not paid attention. Here is a short list of what the Trump base has rallied behind for years:

- Planned Parenthood does all sorts of illegal stuff.

- vaccinations cause autism.

- there is no scientifically valid evidence that fluoride in water is good for your teeth.

- there is no scientifically valid evidence for man-made global warming / climate change.
- there is no scientifically valid evidence for evolution.

- Obama's birth certificate is fake. Fake.
- Obama is a muslim.

- There was no civil war. It was a War between states and it was not about slavery. Lincoln made it about slavery. Total non-sense.

- in 1860 slavery was in steep decline and there was no need to go to war for slavery to end. Total stupidity.

- its ok to discriminate against "mexicans" because most of them are here illegally.

- Obama does not deport illegals, in fact, he buses them in!!!!!
- several localities in the US are run under sharia law.

And the list goes on and on ... 

Please!!!!! Give me a break!!!! Has this talking radiohead ever listened to Rush Limbaugh?

Donald Trump didn't make fake news ... fake news made Trump!!!!
