A lot of the conversation about public policy has degraded to "Listen to this bitch, she sounds so fucking dumb, who talks like that? A dumb bitch, that's who" and "Shut up, you're poor and you just want everyone else to be poor".

FOX took a minute to evolve from its William F. Buckley / Milton Friedman style highly academic bullshit to its modern WWE-style punching a nerd in the dick on TV and calling them gay incarnation. As a result, the reactionary social media has largely displaced them among under-60 conservative ahem "thought-leaders".
