This is the world we live in. Buzzwords and misinformation. It's upon us to make the difference between trash news and reality. People are wrong on both sides of the fence. It's very easy for them to flood us with bad information with the internet and the television. Rare are the people living outside making their own judgment through their life experiences.

It's always something they seen or heard on the TV which are usually owned by the same entity pushing a specific agenda.


If that's your conclusion I would encourage you to broaden your horizons. There are plenty of independent sources that don't parrot those buzz words. I mean, not on the right. The right is virtually all buzz words and resistant to analysis. It's kind of a feature of the ideology.

But on the left there's a huge swath of critical analysis that will actively call out Democrats, Republicans, and everything in between for being shit stains and propose real alternatives. It's just they don't usually traffic in rage like right wingers do, so they're much harder to find.

did you view the vid?


I did. It's heroic what they are doing but at the end of the day, nothing will change because they will create "new variants" and manage to scare enough people to keep going with their lies. The goal is to convince the mass whatever the message is. Once you control the mass, you can do as you please.

I can see people are starting to wake up to the truth but that's not enough. Actions need to be made.

I am not a fan of online news and the television. Too much bullshit for the little truth they showcase. I rather live in the real world and try to educate myself and as many people as i can through discussions. I been schooled on many subjects because of these discussions. I prefer real life to the internet because people tend to be more honest and insult less in real life because they are in front of you.

Everyone try to be a badass online with their inflated ego. Don't dare tell them they are wrong or you will be shot by their e-guns!

Not that vid. Thought we were talking bout the Canadian Truckers. As for the brainwash video, i don't have to see it to understand Television and the social medias are the strongest tools to sell misinformation and have people go a specific direction.

Covid was a blessing for the human race. Brought us together and lot of people are waking up to the lies and understand how far the governments around the world are willing to go to fill their pockets and the corporations pocket. I am not saying all government are evil but we can clearly see their motives.

Like I said, you should broaden your horizons. I have some recommendations that the cracker guy liked that will get you started.

Shaun, HBomberguy, Knowing Better, and Philosophy Tube are all insanely high quality channels that are well researched and well articulated.

Problem is that kind of quality goes slow, so they tend to only upload one video a month and they tend to be 30+ minutes. So they aren't going to be 5 minute rage essays like you get on the right.

I don't refer to people as leftie or righty. Either people understand what's at stake or they don't. Politics are in place to protect the interest of the rich and the corporations. Just take a look at how much is spent on war across the glove versus investing on our crumbling infrastructure.

If they were in power to represent the people, our road wouldn't be a mess. Our hospitals wouldn't be at max capacity due to the flu. We wouldn't lack personals to fill jobs. If they were in place to make sure you have the best life possible, they wouldn't try to replace you with cheap labour from abroad.

The government is in place to make sure the one feeding their pockets keep thriving. You are just a variable that can be replaced. As long as you keep working and making money for the one at the top, you're doing your part in THEIR system.

putting out short vids is being considerate. if it interests a person they can find more on the topic. your rude way is some people dont have the time ...then you berate them for not being "intellectual"

If you can't sit through a 30 minute video you just cannot get the full context required to have a real understanding.

The world is complicated. Deal with it.
