[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how much the right wing is spending on anti-DEI propaganda and activism?  I wouldn't be shocked or surprised if that number by far exceeds that UVA budget.[/quote]

Considering the fossil fuel industry literally spent well over a billion dollars on climate denial propaganda I would tend to agree.   It's sad that they could have invested that billion into cleaner tech and we would all be better off today.

The right wing is far too invested in fighting change just for the sake of fighting.  [/quote]

Yep, billions with a B.  The right wing faux outrage machine is a huge industry.[/quote]

Holy crap.  I just did a search and this is correct - the right wing spends [b]a billion dollars a year[/b] on climate denial via 91 think tanks, advocacy organizations and trade associations - https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/meet-the-money-behind-the-climate-denial-movement-180948204/

This is probably true of many other right wing issues as well.[/quote]
That’s the only way the GOP maintains any sort of credibility - paying to brainwash people. But they keep doing it because it works, because our media exists for the benefit of the GOP and because there are no limits to the GOP paying to brainwash people. [/quote]
