  • People are stupid and easily manipulated, it’s that simple. I’m including you or I in this statement as well. We might happen to be paying more attention to politics, but we’re likely fooled or mislead in other areas of our lives without noticing.

    No one has the bandwidth to pay attention to everything, so naturally some people autopilot on things they feel are too complicated or are uninteresting. When you autopilot then lots of things are taken at face value without critical thought, and without the historical knowledge to easily spot a trend or lie.

    So yeah, were stupid and apathetic when viewed as a large group and that’s unfortunate. Advertising (propaganda) has been fine tuned over the last 70 some years to exploit our weaknesses exceptionally well. Things will have to get really bad and demand the average person’s attention before they will focus it.


  • I’ve been vegan for a little over five years now and I take the same multivitamin I used to take, plus a B12 supplement.

    Now I happen to have JUST bought a new bottle from Costco the other day and looking at my receipt it was… $14 for 360 tablets (a year’s supply). So over the last five years Big Kirkland has sucked a hefty $70 out of me for being so gullible.

    If only I didn’t have this wool over my eyes! Your conspiracy theory has to be the worst I’ve ever heard.
