It's not just the partisan media diet that's at fault. Its the concept that Americans would rather watch something entertaining rather than something helpful or thoughtful. You have the entire library or world history at your fingertips, and people want to watch TikTok and throw a fit if they don't get it.

FANTASTIC article. And honestly, if you had a bigger readership, this would go a long way towards helping us shake off our despondence and start getting a little more positive minded again. Especially number 10 on your list (he really was a unicorn, although I am part of the half of the country that is apparently immune to his hypnotic whatever).
