Elderly people are notoriously fearful of any change and distrustful of minorities, so they like Fox News because it feeds these fears and distrust and tells them they're right and everyone else is wrong.\r\n\r\nThis is not something \"super successful people and smart in business\" crave. This is what your racist uncle craves, and just because he grew up in a better economy and has had longer time to save and invest doesn't make him \"super successful people and smart in business\".\r\n\r\nIt just makes him old, fearful and bitter with a better retirement account.\r\n\r\nYou admit though, that your dad really fell under their spell after he had a stroke, so you're saying that in his weakened, debilitated state he found himself more mentally susceptible to the Fox News messaging?\r\n\r\nYou've proven my point.\r\n\r\nTo understand, watch [The Brainwashing of My Dad](https://www.amazon.com/Brainwashing-My-Dad-Matthew-Modine/dp/B01C6AFDM6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1521477423\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=brainwashing+of+my+dad), it's free on Amazon Prime.","subreddit_name":"politics","author":"OB1-knob"},{"body":"That is like asking why people start to smoke or continue to smoke.
