Yeah, living in the UK I'm not surprised.
Right wing lies are spread non-stop to blame people on benefits, immigrants or the EU for problems caused by poor policy decisions, usually those made in service of people who are already rich.
I've personally met people who think that benefit cheats (people who are getting "too much" financial support from tej government) are a huge problem, when they make up only a tiny amount of our costs compared to wage theft, military spending and tax breaks.
In france companies gets 279 BILLION euros of help every year (of course no verification is done, and it's hidden in "lower charges/taxes" instead of "handouts"). Thats 900€ per working person.
Per month.
And we're supposed to be angry at poor people just trying to get by? I wonder why /s
And this is because 99% of our press is explicitly right-wing and has a somewhat fuzzy relationship with truth.
Thanks, Murdoch!
Capitalists should not be allowed to own media. Or really have any say whatsoever over how society functions. Why would any society allow someone whose sole interest is themselves to have power over anyone else?
