This is from a thread about the rise in the President's poll numbers. If ONLY we could force everyone to read DU the world would be a better place!!!!

This hub of untarnished, fact based, news stories. (Not talking about the comment sections)

I think you'd see very different numbers. Fact is almost half the population doesn't even vote. And almost half of those that do only hear fake news to shape their opinions.

Which reminds me of something that grates me. How Democrats are so damn shy about using 'strong' language. It took a year for them to call Trump a liar, to use that word. Same with the word racist. So Republicans, who have no quibbles about it pound salacious insults day after day on Democrats, for decades now. Long after Fox News and RW hate radio had been engaging in fake news, promoting invented scandals on the Clintons, or Obama, Trump and the Republicans once again pre-empt the shy Dems and first coin the term "fake news" and so make it 100x harder to accuse the other side of it. Now the term "fake news" is forever associated with CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC etc... Its because it works, to accuse the other side of what they are doing. Just like 'the big lie'.

Unvarnished, fact-based news. On DU.

I'm less sure the result would be what LLL expects. Revulsion seems to me more likely.

I'd like to see every American have to go there and read their crap too.  It would show them what rabid animals are at the core of the Donk party.

Ya, DUmmie, the "required" part............FOAD.
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Wise words indeed.
“Don’t vote for the person who tells you you deserve something. Just don’t do it if it’s something other than life, liberty, or the pursuit of possible happiness. If everyone is telling you you deserve something, vote for the one who is promising you the least. Be suspicious of the man or woman who tell you deserve everything. Because you don’t.” ---Mike Rowe

It just occurred to me.
Brainwashing may possibly be the only washing a DUmmie might encounter.
