DeSantis Media Censorship/Gag On Hold

So what the Repubs are demanding is that they have the right to lie, contrive, deceive, misdirect, obfuscate and commit all manner of disingenuos acts and malfeasance any time, anywhere without penalty or being held accountable.

Well, seeing as if that would be the only way they could win at the polls who can blame them for trying to fix things that way? They are compelled to force their will on the majority party while giving nothing but lip service to their rank and file party members. Their lies and deception is clearly not aimed at the opposition party, rather it's directed squarely at their own members who, for lack of any logical reason to question their party's leadership's integrity, simply buy into the lies thus completing a circle where lies beget more lies, the bigger the better, especially if those lies are about denigrating and dehumanizing their opposition.

What I think is funny is that over the last few years conservatives have moved from complaining about virtue signaling to actively vice signaling.

Like all the performative refusal to wear a mask - they were bragging about endangering public health! And in this case, it's the governor of a major state signaling to his supporters that he wants to destroy the first amendment.

I don't think his supporters really comprehend what's going on though. Just R good, D bad, if this R is telling me something then I'm gonna roll with it.

I mean, if some do understand, they're likely to just process the cognitive dissonance and lash out at others (like we see often)
