The day I read that TV was created to control us was the day I stopped watching it. I have barely watched the tube since the late sixties. I thought it was just an advertising platform pushing greed. I knew it was also more than that but because I was a young teen I didn't know what the rest of the subliminal bullshit was called. I've lived for decades with a hatred and avoidance of TV. I tried Netflix for a while because my current husband is a TV addict, but Netflix was just as stupid.
Now that we have the internet, why would anyone watch the tube?

the Right has their share of fake memes/news, always research before spreading and have a critical mind with the right too. I found many fake news articles, especially the voice of Europe website is full of lies. So we share their links and look like fools and conspiracy theorists.

People will reject opinions if they cannot reconcile those opinions with their own strongly held beliefs. Cognitive dissonance. Be patient and trust that all will be revealed. I have been praying for 20+ years that light would be cast into the shadows and all would be made known. Patience.

Just love em where they're at. They'll figure it out eventually. People resist what you tell them, but if you lovingly and curiously ask them QUESTIONS you might get somewhere. Just drop your agenda of trying to be right and invite them to explore, and don't be attached if they choose not to. Truth will prevail brother. Let em wake up slow if they want, maybe they're not morning people.

Big red pills are hard to swallow. The little ones go down much easier.
During this whole GHWB love fest, I keep pointing out to my family that the media’s new found love for 41 is odd given the vitriol they had for him and his son.
It’s a head scratcher that can open em up for the larger pills.
