Facebook proves that to millions every single day. They sell you to the highest bidders. Literally. So does Google. If you've ever had any experience running a social media marketing campaign.
When someone tries to narrow your thinking to 2 options and you believe them, you are the 3rd option.
Of course. It’s why the gop has had to purge its intelectual leaders like George Will. You can’t have smart people hanging around while you try to dupe the rubes.
