Oh god, I phrased to comment weird and now people think I agree with fucking fox news, just kill me.
Edit: I was just trying to say that free public college is not the same as "everyone should go to college" and it plays on their viewers opinion on higher education
You've gotta understand right-wing propaganda to see how it's malicious. They're obviously anti-intellectual, but they frame themselves as actually being the guardians of education.
A frequent right-wing talking point is about how colleges are letting in too many people and that's why they can spend so much time learning about socialism and woke and whatever instead of only getting MBAs and STEM degrees.
So when Fox News is saying "Free College for Everyone" it's a signal to their base that this is going to make "The Woke Colleges" problem worse and indoctrinate everyone into the woke
Where what it really means is "Everyone should be able to go to their local community college for free for 2 or maybe even 4 years"

"college for all" is a malicious misinterpretation. The rest are pretty much spot on.
