[Botany]

Fox News is Podsnappery ergo Fox News viewers are Podsnapperiums

Podsnappery Podsnappery Podsnappery know it, learn it, love it, and use it.

"Can you just turn that un-American Podsnappery off?" or call your cable company and ask
them, "Is there anyway to block that Fox News Podsnappery?"

1. It's not Fox "News". It's Faux entertainment.

2. Cool word, but right-wingers are agitated and angry, which is far from being complacent

If they were merely complacent they wouldn't be an active threat to democracy. I wish.

The might deny unpleasant facts (like Trump lost), but they don't replace the facts with anodyne fantasy, they replace the facts with unpleasant lies and conspiracy theories.

4. But it is a big word and that will get 'em mad but their Christo Fascisti leanings make them ....

... complacent about Fox's wall to wall lies and the on going right wing coup.

3. I prefer the term "Suckers."
