I no longer believe in Chomsky’s manufacturing consent. I think the right wingers are correct when they say the media gives the “people” ( I strongly believe the reactionary masses make up the “elite” rather than just billionaires) what they want in the US; the narratives are a license for their violent bigotry as they understand at some level they benefit from the exploitative relationship the US has with the rest of the world (even the vassal states that benefit from this hegemony).
If having the ability to livestream the genocide on their phones for the past couple of years isn’t going to change their minds, then their consent for murder was never manufactured in the first place.
