      I’d take BBC/PBS over Fox News any day.

        The broadcasts’ content on PBS are still privately owned. The part that is publicly funded is the broadcasting of the content.

  I think people are being dosed with some kind of pollutant that is inhibiting their fear center somehow, interfering with brain function to make them more trusting and compliant, and massive numbers with taxoplasmosis, a parasite that affects all mammals spread between rodents and cats, where the rodents lose their fear of cats when they get it.

  I used to joke about that, half joke, I’m full serious now. In the US as well, something is fundamentally wrong with everyone, not just one side.

    COVID did cause real brain damage, we have not measured the impact at scale, but u think it made everyone more selfish and uncaring.

      That could be a factor I didn’t even think of that.
