No one is immune to propaganda. These techniques are highly effective and explains how even good people worldwide and throughout history have been radicalized, even violent, when they'd never consider committing attrocities in absence of the constant barrage of lies they become addicted to.
Rupert Murdock said in his depo "the reason we lied to our audience is they wanted the lies, they did not like the truth!" I mean how simple can you get but here they are watching 24/7 with the little RT in the left hand corner and not one of these viewers now what it means.
Everyone can be scammed. The difference in people is admitting you’ve been scammed. A good person can make a mistake and make amends. A person who wants you to believe they are good will make the mistake and never make amends.
Start funding education as if our lives are at stake. We've been under-funding education for the past 20+ years. We are now paying a VERY high price for that mistake. A price so high, we may not recover from it.
Ten years in parochial school, and I discover almost daily another element of history omitted in my education. It's my recent assertion this country has *always* operated from fascist ideology. We just didn't get to learn about it.
Several black friends have shared they feel trump did this country a favor as even white people now see the white supremacy of christian nationalism.
It surprised me, too. The views shared were that most white people still believe the 'few bad apples' lie, but now, with overt racism, misogyny, anti-abortion, anti-poor, anti-gay, on-and-on, we ALL see the truth. Maga are PROUD of these views. We all see it now.
They ain’t any black folks I know that would say that senseless mess . Trump has not be a favor in any aspect of human existence imo he’s been the worse in every phase of life and has allowed hateful racist folks to stand tall in pride
I've had three conversations where folks feel trump's overt racism makes even the most ignorant white folks see the true nature of racism in this country. The lie, 'it's just a few bad apples' is finally blown to pieces.
I can't see any black saying that but OK. Since it was the Whites that have been saying it since Rush and his postulating, disgusting...
