"I’m afraid that for some people it just bounces off of them, it’s not their fault.... That would worry me, if I thought it was a generational thing."

Face it, most of the new generation are exactly what the oligarchs want them to be, as can be seen by the voices that the oligarchs promote, incl. in places like the WaPo (e.g. Suzanna Walters) and the NYT (e.g. M.E. Dyson).

Maybe Meier needs to brush up, e.g. on Matt's book on Hate Inc., and w/ Koppel's thoughts of a few years ago, at https://www.theblaze.com/news/ted-koppel-liberal-media-out-to-get-trump .
