The Fox lie machine and hate radio keep feeding the beast.
Rampant racism and ignorance and greed keep it going.
Billions of dollars spent on culture-war political ads against minorities, gun control, etc. add to the propaganda.
And now, the mainstream media have gone from incompetent to fully complicit in the true fascism.
