Let's get our "facts" straight. The only people telling anyone anything here is the media/government. The fact that people believe everything the media/government says without question is very scary and dangerous. I can't believe how easy it is to perform mass brain-washing and control people like puppets. It's like, if they want millions of people to all of a sudden be scared, or mad, or patriotic, or start debating something so they don't notice something else, or anything else they want the non-thinking, non-questioning population to do like puppets on a string, they simply create fake stories, fake headlines, fake disasters, fake terrorists, or anything else. And people simply repeat what they read without questioning it. It's really fucking sad.
These days, it works even better when you stick a hashtag in front of something. That really makes people feel like they belong to a "cause" while sitting on their asses in front of their computer.
#JeSuisTheMall (Wow! Now I feel important. I'm part of a MOVEMENT!!!!!)
I know I'm crazy. After all, it's not as if the media/government has ever lied to us before, right?
Having said that, this can easily turn into a Cave thread, so I'll stay the fuck out of it after this post.
Have fun.
