Educated people, church goers, intelligent people from all walks of life seem to fall for the propaganda and become deranged?
Are there that many naive people, stupid people, evil people out there?
I know we are not the baddies, but this is just bizarro world. I just saw the scripted Arnold video and the propaganda is real.
Please share some opinions on what we are facing here.
Indoctrination.
There's a reason the left-wing wants to inject their narrative into every popular TV franchise, every school, every work place.
Its a military grade digital influence operation. don't believe the hype. maga lost very few supporters in reality and quite possibly gained a lot after big tech cartel turned up the heat too quick. the frog has jumped out of the pot.
this could very well be mchrystals operation in action.
I do not believe the average democrat voter is truly evil. And honestly, most of the ones that I know aren't even socialists.
In fact, most of them believe they are the good guys. They have been told that Republicans only care about the rich. They care about the unborn, but not about the kids once they come out, etc.
Another fact is that they don't pay attention. They read the propaganda headlines in the news and they are trusting that the news is telling them the truth. Every MSM news source is telling them the exact same stuff. They don't actually watch Trump speak. They listen to someone else tell them what he said or read a headline with an out of context quote or a downright lie.
Also, some people are just more susceptible to brainwashing than others. They are more compliant and like to fit in. I've always been a little quirky, and I've never really fit in. I march to the beat of my own drum as it were lol. I've always been a very skeptical person, and I am very curious by nature. I think this makes it much harder to brainwash me because my curiosity makes me look into things more. This doesn't work well with propaganda.
I'm honestly so surprised by how many people take things at face value and just trust what people are telling them. I always look at a person's actions and behaviors over their words.
Anyways, I hope that helps. Those are just some of my musings about this. Sorry if I was a bit rambly.
Very good in-depth answer, I don’t think they are evil either, maybe the ones at the top. So I guess if they aren’t evil, or stupid than that leaves us with naive, which makes sense.
This shit right here has always puzzled me as well. Like how can you not even question something? People take pride in agreeing with their masters, like they are happy to be on the same page with them. It's sickening.
I always play devil's advocate. I can always see multiple sides to a situation. My dad always told me I should have been a lawyer. I can argue both sides to any issue. Even if I vehemently disagree with one side, I still can see where they are coming from most of the time.
I know it drives people crazy, but I can't help it. It's just how I am lol. Always questioning, always trying to see things from every angle...
It's just confusing to me when people don't do that. Like, we have so much information available to us at all times. Why wouldn't you search and do some research yourself? I don't get it.
Because the double standard is obvious, simply showing up to a Trump rally without even getting near the Capitol was enough to get listed as a terrorist, meanwhile the left burns down entire cities and murders people and gets treated as a hero with mass fund raising
There are fearful people.
We are instructed by the Bible, a book as unmatched in worldly wisdom as it is in eternal salvation, to not to be fearful, because
a) how and why should you be fearful when your faith is in God and his promise?, but also
b) fear creates massive destruction in our personal lives and our societies.
How could this possibly be missed at this moment? With even halfway clear eyes, it absolutely cannot.
Complacency and arrogance.
False flags and gaslighting
mob mentality, if they go against it they're considered bad people and kicked out of society
Herd mentality became a survival instinct/selection trait for humans as we developed into civilizations. Those who fit in and went with the flow survived long enough to procreate and vice versa.
because their souls are rotten
I know people who are trump haters and say biden is president... it makes me mad seeing how blind they are!!! why would they vote for a brain dead pedophile? why would they vote for these fools who have been lying for 5 years??? obama was a piece of shit too and he looks like one also. pc
I think the media is to blame in large part for TDS but also TDS in and of itself is a fascinating phenomenon. It's would be really interesting to see it studied and dissected someday. Why does it get to some people and completely have no impact on others?
On another level, our greater MAGA/patriot/nationalist ideology feels like persecuted Christianity in many ways.
The narrative is anti Trump and orange man bad. They continue to repeat stuff over and over again and with repetition (plus complete conformity in the narrative) things usually just become accepted as fact. My dad voted Republican his entire life and said something about Trump’s rhetoric causing people to break into the capital. I said what rhetoric and why do people just keep repeating the word rhetoric like it’s an intelligent answer. It’s all in the narrative and the false consensus that is portrayed by the media. Also some people like to feel like they’re better than others so they demean Trump (who is, at this point, probably the only person in the gov who really cares about people) because it’s fashionable to do so. I really hate it when people say bad things about Trump since he sacrifices so much and cares so much. He is a very selfless person and his ego is not even half the size of obamas. But no they don’t like his tweet so they gotta vote for biden to restore “decency” and “unity” even tho biden is one of the most indecent human beings on the planet as well as very divisive.
decades of white guilt propaganda by the semite media
It has doen nothing but grow over the last four years
Their sense of empathy has been hijacked. Mostly on reddit and twitter. Think of every person you know that refers to themselves as "empathic". Theyre always liberal softies. They're not bad people by any stretch. But they're all heart and no head. Sometimes they try to sound intelligent but they don't realize just how the way they speak to you comes off like they're above you.
Would love to hear some insight from the shrinks here
It's the hard/narrow path.
Its really simple..
Trump had a rally
Trump told folks to go to capitol building
Shit got violent
Cops were getting pushed around, one was killed, doors getting broken in, pandemonium.
And now we are labeled as domestic terrorist, the end. Is it any wonder why folks are heading for the hills?
See kavanaugh capital building protests 2018. No media outrage. Only praise. And we know about the blm riots. Imagine if we blew up a Wendy’s and police cars?
I do not recall nearly the same situation for kavanaudh, I will have to research that one.
It wasn't a riot, but the protesters had a meltdown. Beating on the Supreme Court doors, wailing.
How was ours a riot? Police letting people in, antifa breaking some windows. There were at least 10-15 worse antifa blm riots over the summer for sure.
It wasn't. It was a protest. I was comparing the Kavanaugh protests to the BLM riots. Sorry, I can see how that was confusing.
Hey man, the good people on this website are your family. And if the girls at school think you're a loser, screw them, you're the aware one while they are led like sheep to the slaughter.
It's not over, not yet at least. At least wait until inauguration day to even think that Trump lost. Regardless of what happens, the MAGA movement is not going away anytime soon. 75 Million people in America and who knows how many across the globe are a part of this movement.
I have faith in my President that he will succeed. It's been an uphill battle since he first campaigned for office and yet despite all the challenges he's faced, he's pushed on and won bigly.
