The key to fascism, explained by Katherine Hepburn in 1942

This sounds familiar:

Let’s see it in practice today:

Fox News is a fascist breeding ground. It has created a false reality, then moved into power to enforce its lies.

And despite its lies, millions of brainwashed stooges continue to vomit up its fantasies because that’s their reality. They will always be dupes:

WILMINGTON, Del.—Fox News’s huge payment to Dominion Voting Systems to settle Dominion’s libel suit over Fox’s deliberate lies about the firm’s voting machines in the 2020 election is an admission of guilt by Fox and “a ringing endorsement for truth and democracy,” attorneys for Dominion say.

The reality, however, is that the amount Fox has to shell out is far less than half the money it takes in during just one quarter of its yearly operations. To most corporate giants that percentage of earnings is nothing more than what they expect to shell out simply as the regular cost of doing business.

As a result of the settlement, the viewers of the giant “news” network will never get to see the admission by Fox that it was guilty of pushing on the public the Big Lie that the 2020 election was stolen from the Dear Leader, Donald Trump. Fox aired, on Tuesday afternoon, when most of its viewers were at their jobs or shopping for what they need at home, a several second statement that “some of the statements about Dominion voting machines were not accurate but that Fox remains committed to providing the highest standards” of journalism.

That was the extent of their admission agreed to in court. The many millions who get their news from Fox will never see anything else about the case. The settlement also guaranteed that people like Rupert Murdoch, the leader of Fox and that people like Tucker Carlson and other Fox hosts will never be seen admitting to millions that they lied to their admiring public.
