    I don’t think this is accurate. If your only interaction to Americans is the terminally online dipshits, I can see why you’d think that. Americans are just ignorant, especially now with how consolidated mainstream media has become. Fox News is never going to report on the real tragedies the American military creates when it bombs civilians, and for a lot of people Fox, CBS, CNN, etc are their only source of news. They’re very effective propagandists.

    But try as they might, not even the most adept propagandist can hide the gas prices. It’s an inconvenient truth not even Trump can lie his way out of.

      so when they finally notice the high gas prices, do they not even wonder why?

      if they do, your excuse for them falls apart… if they don’t the claim is automatically proven
