understand why people have conceived of such a place, and also makes me wish that such a place exists, just for sick sociopathic conscienceless rat fuckers that would do something like that.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the US is the most heavily propagandized country. Wish I could remember where I saw that, or more of what it said. Because it sounds pretty believable. Propaganda is so dangerous; the world didn't have the internet at the time of WWI......and the lead up to WWII. Nazi propaganda was very successful in brainwashing the populace.

Thanks for the correction.

But it's still true we're living in a propaganda bubble.

I'm feeling bad for this dude. I can see that he's a good guy with difficult life. MSM showed its true colors and they're pushing us away from following these MSM and lean toward more independent and smaller networks.

Many if not most of us know what can be done with software to alter an image. That's why you can never truly trust that what you see is real.

We get mostly lies, then much of the rest is simply omitted. It's a fine media we have.
