“They only believe what their union tells them to believe”
I found something similar at my old workplace (non-union), only more frightening: the folks there felt and spoke conservatively in conversation (against a welfare state, against big government, and against government intrusiveness) and yet time after time I heard them parrot the main stream media’s talking points against prominent republicans in the news.
These people were so susceptible to whatever the talking heads were saying that they would vote leftist time and again against their own best interests. It was an eye-opener.
MSM propaganda works, and quite effectively. People do seem to be kind of stupid and trusting of the MSM. It’s really disheartening to see.
What do 50 + year old woman anyway care about reproductive rights? Aren’t their reproductive years over by now?
I believe one of the worst segements of women is this 50-60 year old age group. These ARE the women who in the last 30 years or so who have aborted their children in such unfathomable numbers. Many of them are still living with their guilt and most are unrepentant, yet rotting on the inside.
It’s a hollow existence at best and denial of facts and reality is the only thing they have left to hold onto.
Most people I know, family and/or acquaintences, are living their lives as conservatives— (for the most part) yet as you say, repeat whatever the lying MSM tells them, and believe it. No amount of simple explanation will tell them differently. Quite sad, and scary for the future.
