The worst thing progressives do is assume everyone is as informed as themselves.
Immigrants and first generation Americans more often then not have labor jobs, work unusual shifts with a small number of other people, live in districts with bad schools, and don’t speak or read English. They watch news on culturally oriented outlets like telemundo and only interact with other immigrants in meaningful ways.
It’s extremely easy to use that bubble to circulate disinformation. It’s coming from other people they love and trust and tinted with their own culture.
The internet exists. There’s plenty of Spanish, or any other language, news coverage of anything you could want to know about. People have the responsibility of educating themselves. Failing to do so is just that, a failure. Don’t give anyone cover to remain in ignorance.
Educated or no, doesn’t take a rocket scientist for a blue collar worker to look at their grocery bills and see that they tripled, or to figure out that they can’t afford to see a doctor or send their kid to college.
