I don’t believe that the “dissidents” are the minority by a long shot. I think the current administration loves to distribute what we are supposed to believe to be the truth (aka “lies) via the MSM every day. Probably through the propagand and misinformation directorate.
‘...I don’t believe the ‘dissidents’ are a minority by a long shot...”
I wish I could believe that, however, the public education system has largely succeeded in its brainwashing function. My 3 older daughters (between the ages of 20 and 26), have almost no friends or acquaintances who haven’t bought the soclialist agenda - same with my 16 year old.
This is anecdotal evidence of course, but the younger generation has really been hi jacked into socialism via the public education system. It will get worse with the common core agenda being put into place.
The few who might be convinced of the dangers of socialism are more concerned with “bread and circus” distractions by way of sports, social media, and netflix/movies.
I wish I was more optimistic.
(My daughters have not bought the socialist/atheist agenda, but I kept up with thoroughly “debriefing” them on a regular basis.)
