What I've Learned From Collecting Stories of People Whose Loved Ones Were Transformed by Fox News

[Farmer-Rick]

14. Watching my Uncle die, as he got sicker and sicker, his mind got less and less sharp

He died peacefully and expectedly. But as he approached the golden gates, his mind seemed to have gotten too tired to question authority. Maybe it was his medications, or maybe he was just generally tired.

His was a great logic puzzle whiz. But there at the end he couldn't do them.

But the reason I bring it up is that if he had been exposed to Fox, as if it were real news, during this time, he would have bought it hook line and sinker. I could see how he took people on face value where before he was skeptical of most people's motives. He stopped questioning or examining the world. I think there at the end he might have even believed in a god though all his life he was a proud atheist.

And before he became bed ridden, he was kind of angry. I teased him and called him an angry old man. He would smile and say at his age he had a right to be angry, and get off my lawn....he was 86. I think being angry is a symptom of a tired mind, at least at that age. You are too tired to think through what is happening so you get angry at it. Fox would use that built in anger to their benefit.

But Fox takes advantage of people like him. Whether they are naturally inclined to not question life or if it's caused by injury, disease or medication. Fox cons these people and sucks them into their fantasy world. It's a world where all the questions are answered and all the problems are caused by someone else. Your only real responsibility in this fantasy land is to vote like you are told, Hate...really hate, the people they tell you to hate and don't question their scrambled thinking. Then the world will be perfect, until the next problem.
