So my thrice vaxxed and boosted SIL/BIL, to give you some context, were responding to my aunt's comments about the college protests, and basically responded that these protests are fake and not grassroots. My BIL - who is definitely Big Pharma Brainwashed - was nodding "yes!" at my adding that the whole thing was clearly funded from an outside source with the matching tents, etc. Then on his own he added that a large majority of the protesters arrested were not even students.
It's a small thing I know, but at the same time, seismic.
That is why good memes are so effective, a little bit of common sense truth that makes someone laugh, then they just awake. Many people I've watched say it was like a curse lifted off them and they realise what our side has been saying and agree.
I have always believed humor was better than journalism. A lot of lies sell if they are salacious or otherwise interesting. But if it's not at least a little true, it's just not funny.
Definitely agree, comedians are very powerful, why the cancel culture tries to keep them in line.
