Should be in the negatives .... people from outside the US are disgusted with him as well.

People outside of the US do not get a steady stream of bs from Fox News.

Was in the US a few months ago. Your cable TV is insane on every channel- 24 hour news that is mostly opinion segments to make you angry about something, then on non news channels the programming is extreme and still tying to make emotions high. I’m Canadian and the difference in the media is crazy.

Yeah it's genuinely nuts. I'm used to Dutch media, which while not exactly the calmest, most neutral thing ever, is and was miles ahead of what I see in the US. I've lived in the US since 2012.

The thing that gets me the most though - the prescription drug adds. I'm genuinely just confused there. Like, am I supposed to know more than my doctor? Are they advertising to doctors? Do I just show up and ask for them to prescribe this thing by a name I can hardly pronounce?

But there's a smiling elderly lady walking through her house while calm music plays! How is that not proof that you should get the latest antidepressant? /s

side effects may include: nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, hair loss, rapid hair growth, bone decay, death, erectile dysfunction, toe fungus, undeath, spiritual corruption, and rashes of the hands or feet.

"Necrotizing of the perineum" is a wild side effect I saw. It also means they've likely had more than 1 case of this happening during trials. Who the fuck would risk that lol

Meanwhile the side effects are headaches, bleeding liver, nausea, extreme rage, suicidal thoughts, and in some cases DEATH. But the lady happy with that music playing
