Whatever you do, don't do your own research...

Has anybody else noticed a glut of newspaper articles in the last month telling people NOT to do their own research?
Doing your own research on issues is bad because you will end up believing disinformation.
Why wouuld they start pushing these articles NOW?
Here are a few examples, in the last month and there are a number of others. Go ahead. Google it.

Media knows best.
Just take their word for it.

Rhetorical question is rhetorical.

They are losing their grip and getting desperate
People are adults, who can determine for themselves what is true or what isn’t. Who the frick do these clowns think they are? These aren’t smart people, yet they lecture everyone

The ultimate irony is that the advice is coming from some of the most dishonest, partisan POS in the History of the Planet.

They’ve been doing that since Wikileaks. It’s not new.

Jimmy Dore has done a number of segments on this. It used to be called reading and getting educated.

It becomes more difficult for the propaganda outlets to shape and drive a narrative to the masses if people are going to get all uppity and start trying to do their own fact finding.

There was a time when we used books and historical documents in research .

The people who literally are wrong about everything want you to get all of your information from them.

I notice it because I grew up in a cult hearing that my entire life. We were only allowed to read what was provided to us by "God's approved channel" or else we would be misled by Satan's world. It's a way of controlling group think through fear and shame. "Here, we've sorted out what's true and what isn't so we know how to lead you. Follow us, we have the truth. If you question us, you are questioning God and are weak in faith." Textbook brainwashing.

Well over 70% of Americans get news from Tic Tok, which is controlled by the Chinese Govt. so they may not be too far off actually...

Today's journalists don't do research. They're lazy. They just make up a story based on their own opinion. The formula goes like this.
Journalist thinks Trump is bad.
Goes online to see others who think Trump is bad.
Notices some argue he's too old to be President.
Journalist publishes story:
AMERICANS REJECT TRUMP DUE TO CONCERNS ABOUT AGE
Voila...takes about 30 minutes. Research is harder.

People that do their research normally do follow the masses when it comes to voting , vaccines , schooling ect .

They did this in 2020 as well with ivermectin and hyroxychloroquin

Too bad for them. The beta version of AI bots can already do that

I've seen it for years. Might not have outright issued the command, but it was strongly suggested.
This is the 1984 blueprint playing out before our eyes and ears, which we're ironically being told to ignore.

It's probably good advice for a lot of people honestly. People believe in all sorts of retarded shite and their "research" is usually just watching what some other retards or grifters say in a YouTube video. People need to start reading again.
