I'm not going to give my exact age but I'll say I'm between 30 and 40, my mom used to watch the news every night and even as a preteen I started getting a weird feeling about the news, just the way they talked seem strange and like they were trying to push an agenda. I would talk with my mom about my observations and she would often agree but no matter what she would still watch the news, still does to this day. There's something psychological about the way the mainstream media is produced, it's like a potent drug for so many and they can never put it down. Those of us that are immune have the duty to never stop trying to wake up those in our families but often it feels hopeless. People have been primed to accept authority from the TV, and now the mainstream media websites, for so long that the covid thing was easy to pull off. It really sickens me how things have gone since March of last year but honestly I can't say I'm surprised.

I'm the same age. I noticed it hit a serious point around 2010.
Nothing was logical.
One week, I'm meeting with my trivia team where we're practicing debate and discussing logic and science
The next, everyone got woke. Hell, they got so pissed at one dude they dug up info on him and found that he had been arrested and paid his dues for sleeping with a 17 year old dude when he was 22..... the guy was nearly 60 at the time.
I saw what was happening then. The destruction of language was a HUGE issue for me. Words no longer had meaning, it was about the emotions they evoked.
The friends that didn't abandon me over my disgust for the illogical wokeness that was happening (feminism was the thing at the time) slowly died off. About half suicides and half drugs.
I tried to fight em, but nobody had my back. Soyboys may be weak but having crowds of them and no backup for myself has had my fights futile.
Check out Tragedy and Hope, a book written in the 60s by carroll quigley. Its pretty much a giant history book. Page 950 of my version talks about a group that "acts the way the radical right claims the communists do." Oh, and quigley taught history to bill clinton in the 60s.
A couple points. Things like the media have been liberal for at least half a century or more, they just used to be better at hiding it. Also, people that were raised in schools and media with a politically correct viewpoint have been given free reign for 30 years to worm inside young people's heads. We're just seeing those people's influence all grown up now and in leadership roles, media roles, and tech roles. This is gonna be bad until they start retiring and dying in another 40-50 years.
Exactly, good point
It's hypnotic. Literally spiritual. Like a vortex, pulling the unwary in.
