What also worries me is that the countries willingness to accept & believe half-truths and outright lies is increasing. The more the gullibility of the populous climbs, the more lies and outright crap the left injects into the information it feeds the population.
Our politicians and media are becoming more like Bagdad Bob every day.

I quite agree, they have no connection to reality.

I don't know if that's real, or merely perceived -- I recall a story about Russian people knowing what the real [details in] stories were by what wasn't printed in the news [propaganda], and some seem to be doing the same here... this isn't "accept & believe" but rather "acknowledge & adapt." -- That said there is a lot of acceptance of lies, many of which are directly due to the indoctrination of public education.
