Todays, Saturday May 18 letter one writer claims that ‘leftist’ readers validate their opinions by reading letters from other ‘’leftists’ which I find ironic in the extreme. I listen to the right wing am radio, I’ve noticed you’re inundated with a nonstop diet of spoonfed opinions in the morning that are then regurgitated verbatim that very same evening across the right wing social media scape. Every topic, every opinion consist of talking points and opinions couched as facts. Bobble heads bobbling. Until the people are capable or wanting to discern opinion from fact and what we want to believe vs what is true these political schisms will only grow exponentially worse. There is an entire world of information at our fingertips but we are living in a world where typing words and pretending they are facts is how the sides are consuming there information. Trump was the most prolific liar in American political history, an opinion that has been back up by fact checkers, so fact or opinion?
