21. I feel that we need to stop calling it 'misinformation' and star calling it 'ignorance'.

Because anyone who believes this crap is ignorant. We need to stop with the 'politically acceptable' speech.

So, it won't be, "You have been misinformed.", it will be, "You are ignorant of the facts."

Keep hammering that word every time you hear any rethug or their orange false idol say what they usually spew.

"That is an ignorant position to take."

"The President made an ignorant statement on Fox News today..."
