They're mostly online though, but I know one or two, who literally had no clue.

Poor things didn't understand that it was the Russian propaganda channel, they're learning things now.
They're all the folks who keep pretending misogyny doesn't exist and that racism is over. There are a lot of them out there. Usually found disparaging Democrats, the nominee, the DNC, MSNBC and anyone they don't think is sufficiently favorable to their favorite people.
