World of difference between people with soundbites vs people who have information.

The contrast is stark as hell.

But yeah, that's why these conservatives refuse to actually engage with certain people because it's always revealed that the Emperor has no clothes on.

This is one of the biggest problems.

Often, to explain a position or discuss an issue...it requires a long, detailed, sometimes complicated answer.
But that doesn't fit with people's short attention spans and the media's insistence on soundbites and short clips.

I think Noam Chomsky once said something that tv studios didn't want to book him because "he lacks concision". Which is to say, his ideas and arguments aren't short and "digestible"

He acknowledged they had a point. But it's also a problem with the media and a reason why so much of the country is ignorant.

Tell me in 20 words or less really did a number on discourse in our country specifically.
Sometimes things are complex and require nuance when discussing them but that's not sellable.
