  1. It's not entirely their fault. Even people with low education can make decent decissions when confronted with the truth, the truth and nothing but the truth. But instead they sitting in a trap of lies with no way out. And they were told everybody outside the trap who could help is a liar.

  2. You have to remove toxic information sources in America. No hiding behind Freedom of Speech, no hiding behind "we only make entertainment noone reasonable would ever believe us". One option would be to reintroduce the "Fairness doctrine" forcing media companies to improve their news. But I think we also need something more fundamental. My suggestion would be to introduce a new human right: "The Right to Truth" as a counterweight to "Freedom of Speech". It will not stop the liars to lie immediatly, but it would make them legally liable for it.

  3. People like her and right-wing media demagogues spreading the fuel through the room in form of misinformations and fearmongering and give people who trust what they say a match saying "light it to solve your problems". And when the world burns they say "it wasn't me" and something about "Freedom of Speech".

  4. We cannot decide for them don't ever take this away from them or they feel threatened. But what you can do is keep telling them the truth and give them time to think about it and make a decission on their own. The truth has a marvelous property ... it makes perfect sense when you have all the pieces together.

  5. Because the GOP had over 50 years time to reduce education in the states they coming from and blaming Washington or the Democrats for it depending on if the GOP has the power or the Democrats.
