David Rothkopf:

"This is one of the biggest stories in America today. It’s not that poll numbers are out of whack with reality. It’s WHY the poll numbers are out of whack with reality."

"Homicide numbers are poised to hit a record decline nationwide. But most Americans think violent crime is on the rise.

There’s a stark disconnect between how a lot of Americans feel & what’s actually happening. Disinformation is distorting our perception of reality.

More data to add to this point: Crime overall is down year-over-year, including violent crime.

Q3 2023 vs Q3 2022, violent crime dropped 8%, while property crime fell 6.3%—its lowest level since 1961. But 77% of Americans think crime is up over last year." -Almed Baba

The disconnect between declining crime stats and false vibes about rising crime: overt from radical known admitted liars like Fox entertainment, when crime stories are spotlighted in MSM, people assume crime is high. Fox lies.
