I don't want to excuse their decision, but want to point out some context. Right-wing media is really effective at throwing out a ton of bullshit to obfuscate reality. The right-wing bubble throws out shit like Democrats having underground pedophile rings being run in DC pizza restaurants. Meanwhile Trump was found to have committed rape by a court.

Many conservative voters either:

  • Don't hear about the second one
  • Or hear about both and decide that all news is mostly made up trash like the National Inquirer

its called firehose of falsehood, create many false narratives to the point your opponents dont know how to respond to it, this also doubles internal propaganda the target base wouldnt know what is true or not. and yes its russian strategy, and fox works with putin closely with the propaganda.

another one was pretty much gaza muslims, refuse to vote for biden, eventhough it had no statistical different on the voting numbers before the election.
