>>17339204>>17339205>>17339207even when the TV man's lies become so bold and horrific that everyone can see them (which they mostly can already, people are smarter than they seem) the response will mostly be cowardice and denial on an internal/personal level. once horror crosses a certain threshold most people genuinely can't deal with it in a rational way. they will lie to themselves and hope the monster under the bed slips decides not to eat them (this of course only invites further aggression).
