I have recognized for a long time that arguing with many of the people around me is fruitless. They really do live in a different world. We have totally different perspectives on the world because we have totally different sources of information. And they continue to believe the "mainstream" media despite all of its lies. It really is infuriating and frustrating. Decent people believe lies and end up supporting evil. Much like 1930s Germany.

You can see it here. We have election after election stolen and the normies shriek about polls and castigate the rest of us for not wanting to stand on street corners or refusing to vote for Rino’s.

It’s like drinking sewer water, spitting it out, cursing it, and pouring another glass. The media’s number one weapon is repetition, and we have a fifth column that carries their every utterance and fabricated story in the name of “knowing what the other side thinks.” As if you have to look very far not to know that.

They are caught in an emotional loop. Cognitive dissidence because to face the fact that they're completely full of shit is untenable to them. So they choose our ruin to protect their feelings. It's cowardice, dressed up as a caring moral person.

It’s like the alcoholic admitting that he indeed is going to die if he continues to drink and then asks you for a drink.

And this variation too ….
Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response where hostages or abuse victims develop a positive emotional bond with their captors or abusers, often due to the extreme stress and fear of the situation. This bond can lead to unexpected sympathy and loyalty towards the person who is causing harm, even to the point of denying or minimizing the abuse.

William Casey, former CIA Director, famously stated, “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.”

"The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old, and their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns. That’s a sea change. They literally know nothing.

I saw that in action myself over a decade ago at the radio station where I worked. Our new newsman, a young 29 year-old Leftist, asked me why right-wingers were against the Patriot Act, "After all,' he said, 'it's very patriotic."

No shortage of people here that parrot what the Western Media claims about Russia without, I guess, ever trying to find out for themselves.

The MSM gave the people with “itching ears” EXACTLY what they wanted to hear. And rather than being angry at the MSM for lying to them, the liberal democrat mind STILL wants to believe what the liars are saying...
