Cognitive dissonance…

Well…I still shake my head when I hear stories about Biden’s visit to the storm damaged parts of the south that were hit by the tornadoes last week where his empathy and genuine caring for the people there, no matter what their political leaning are, was on display. Most of the people they interviewed were really surprised how much he just listened and gave out hugs to people who needed them…and how nice he was and it hit me how this bit of cognitive dissonance happened…most of these folks probably only watch fox news where Biden is portrayed as the devil incarnate, a socialist, communist who is trying his best to destroy this country…so when this nice, caring guy shows up to really help them, it doesn’t fit the propaganda they have been fed by fox and they can’t square reality with fox’s lies…so cognitive dissonance….I think we need to get better at getting the truth out but that is pretty difficult when all media is rooting for Joe’s failure…and the failure of the country just to have something they want to write about…how about the truth? Nope, won’t happen…geez…
