“Exposure to true information does not matter any more. A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures. Even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him concentration camps, he will refuse to believe it until he is going to receive a kick in his fat bottom.”
—Yuri Bezmenov 1984, regarding communist propaganda in the United States and how to brainwash a nation
A really good quote…the fact that it was issued in 1984 is a nice touch of irony.
[he will refuse to believe it until he is going to receive a kick in his fat bottom]

Then, there be wailing.......
So true! That is why THINKING in school is not taught! Just indoctrination.
