And honestly, if Fox could have just taken Tucker out with a .22 to the back of the head, they would have totally done that.
Yeah it’s the same as 1984 and so many others, it’s about the human condition and natural propensites.
The truth is things haven’t really got much worse, I happen to enjoy Victorian newspapers and it’s all the same nonsence and lies. People will always find a new way to lie and a new excuse to pretend to believe.
