Millions of people now live in the Land of Oz. They are completely detached from reality. The only information they receive is garbage on social media.
At the same time, the public is polarized. This is a dangerous one-two punch combination.
Folks do not want to hear the other side. As I describe in my best-selling book “Confronting America – What Has to Change”, these are the “Bubble People.” They believe what they want to believe; nothing can change their mind.
For example, a report from the Washington Examiner found that 20% of social media accounts on Election Day published fake stories. This was an attempt to influence the vote.
I do not believe these bogus posts had a major impact on the midterms, but this is only going to get worse.
So, beware the “Bubble People”…
If you don’t know anything about your country, you might lose it.
