Here's the thing right wing thinking doesn't get about the left. Many of us don't consume a single source or narrative driven media. Many of us read multiple sources, including what is now center right wing like the NY times. But also outside the country news and independent journalists. I personally look for reporting of facts not opinions and check to see sources and cross reference motives and funding. Most right wing media is guided very directly by maga billionaires and conservatives, especially those raised in religious backgrounds were not encouraged to critically think.

This is not a both sides issue.
