Probably about impossible to really get an accurate picture of the reality of american's mind set. Half votes one way, the other votes the other way. You would assume each half believes the side of the story they are told , maybe completely.

Maybe I've been brainwashed, into thinking the media and the government are a cohesive and corrupt omnipower.

Who knows?

You will have to be deprogrammed and reeducated.


How many lies will people believe before they realize their own idiocy?

Here is the cackling hen explaining how pure she is and how tainted President Trump and "mega extremists" have become. She literally says republicans with a spine need to be deprogrammed.

We were told what greatness was coming with the advent of the internet and all the resources and access to it with simply the movement of our fingers. Uncountable sources, endless means of enlightenment on any topic. Which it can be.

Human laziness has progressed to the fingertips. Disbelief in lying eyes is at an all time hi. Common sense has become the victim of the agenda.

Hillary wants all the republicans to behave like they used to. Roll over and play dead whenever they get the short end of the stick.

Can someone post a clip from outlaw josey wales. Scene where the indian chief talks about the civilized tribes.


This is why they want to disarm us. Banning assault rifles, has nothing to do with crime and everything to do with hillbilly's taking up arms.

All of you will be better of when you stop looking at CNN, MSNBC, MSN, etc.

Stop posting their links on T-man as well. Every click helps them.

When the difference in the way the same stories are covered and it’s clearly an elite society that is untouchable today. Just off hand anybody could come up with examples pretty easily of known corruption and cover ups and a longer list if the thought about it for a while.

Russian hoax, Epstein Island, Benghazi, Afghan Withdrawal, laptop, kickbacks, politicians children on foreign energy boards, insider trading and not securing the border all point to corruption that nothing is ever done about it.

Ray Charles could see what’s going on the MSM refuses to cover stories to protect the left just look at the programming being forced down our throats daily by the MSM. Oh it’s intentional no doubt about it you’re either woke or on the cancel list pick one or the other.

Better to expose the corruption than to allow it. It’s a 2 edged sword.

Everyone knows the truth about these organizations. Do you need to be reminded CNN is a dumpster fire?

And yet, some of you guys keep clicking on them. Clicks helps them make money, so keep that in mind when you post links to their nonsense.

The clintons have spent their entire political lives trying to convince the American public that the U.S.A is a Democracy. They have done a good job of putting us into that hole. Time to get back to being a Republic and the rule of law for everyone.

The answer that everyone is trying to internally justify is this: Everyone has been brainwashed except me and the people who agree with me.

I suspect Boco and Danny are on track here. I used to think of the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a sort of hey-day for the stereotypical assertive, flamboyant con-man, but the reality is that con-men didn't go away. Con-men just became the ruling class of our society. Sometimes that makes it harder for us to detect them simply because they don't stand out.

At another level, isn't brainwashing a normal and unavoidable part of being a human being? What is brainwashing? Isn't it just the formation of certain mental and behavioral patterns based on the ideas that we internalize? That's how all of us mature and learn how to be. You might call it personal formation or even spiritual formation, and it happens to everyone. I don't think it's much different than brainwashing. We typically just think it's brainwashing when it's "obviously" based on bad (according to us, I guess) ideas. Formation is a universal experience, though. Parents know this and work to intentionally form their children in the ways they think are right. As adults, we are still being formed; we just do it without thought and mostly by accident or at least out of habit. The trick is seeing how you are being formed by what/who you hear, see, or consider every day, and then being able to control those things in order to bring your mental/behavioral patterns into alignment with reality.
