Yep. Turn off the TV and it’ll stop
It does help, that’s true, but there’s a significant amount of crying wolf going on across the political spectrum. It’s tough to know who or what to believe anymore. That, unfortunately, also could mean one’s own neighbors.
Certainly, people watch WAY too much TV - TV is the about the quickest way to leave one’s self vulnerable to manipulation or gaslighting.
But it’s not just TV’s fake journalists, dishonest advertisers and agenda-driven content providers that are gaslighting us.
All of our most trusted institutions have been infiltrated and conscripted into pushing false narratives. University professors, family doctors, law enforcement, the nationals security state, the Justice department - BOTY political parties, Wall Street, scientific consensus, top artists and philosophers..
Which among these revered institutions has not been part of this grand conspiracy to destroy MAGA over the last 6 years?
I think people need to turn off the TV, but beyond that, they need to learn how to think for themselves, use common sense, and stop trusting “experts”.
People need to turn up the skepticism dial and trust common sense.
Of course everyone is lying - just assume that. Life is like a giant game of poker: don’t expect the other players to be telling you the truth.
