Actually, I’d argue that due to isolation from mainstream news sources, quite a lot of them are uninformed. Was their specific tiktok account putting the info into their feeds? If not, you can get uninformed.
tiktok is not a news source. tiktok is propaganda. propaganda is meant to program a response from people.
the education system failed to prepare these people for a toxic inhospitable world where their very identity is being attacked on the daily.
also, these people failed to prepare themselves once they became adults because they couldn’t identify the risks to themselves. they lack the skills to identify where their opinions end and the mobs values begin because of a lifetime of indoctrination through tools like Facebook and Tiktok.
they were not uninformed. they made a conscious decision to vote the way they chose. they can certainly change their perspective and their values, but they have damaged their integrity and irreparably broken the trust given to Americans around the world.
just because you don’t understand why you did a thing doesn’t absolve you from being guilty. if someone is uninformed they made choices based on falsified information. there are numerous cases that specifically told the world how big of a corrupt criminal Trump is. Too many sources to ignore it, this is why they chose of their own free will and were not “uninformed”.
Whether someone is informed or not is something that can be objectively analyzed. It had nothing to do with responsibility or guilt. Either they know or they don’t, it is an entirely separate topic whose fault that is.
court: so you then hit the victim seventeen times in the head with a hammer. what do you have to say for yourself.
defendant: I didn’t know that hitting a person that many times would kill them. I saw it happen on Looney Tunes hundreds of times and thought they would be fine.
so by your own admission the defendant should be let go because they can’t be held responsible or guilty because they were uneducated and/or misinformed?
No, I’m saying that discussion of innocence and guilt is a pointless distraction from the important parts of the conversation. It’s irrelevant, it doesn’t matter. There is nothing illegal about listening to gop bullshit, so it’s a pointless red herring to focus so heavily on it.
What do you perceive the benefit of focusing on guilt to be? What’s the point?
