Why do all the “independent thinkers” all sound exactly alike?


Exactly. Many probably live with their parents and have never travelled or had meaningful employment. They get all their vast “knowledge” and the so called truth about their view of the scary world from a few websites that regurgitates similar BS.

A lot of people actually like being told what to do. Followers, not leaders

Lack of world travel is a real problem. Americans tend to think they are the center of the universe.

Why do so many Americans believe what the main stream media tells them?


Because that's what they want to believe and what they want to hear.

The average american is too lazy to care for their own health. You think they are doing research other than what CNN or Fox tells them to believe?

This isn’t political nor is it politics


A general discussion about media trust wouldn't be political. Your original post was just a rant in that MAGA-eze language you all started speaking in.

Most recent poll on one of your claims I could find:

quote:

Just 7% of Americans have "a great deal" of trust and confidence in the media, and 27% have "a fair amount." Meanwhile, 28% of U.S. adults say they do not have very much confidence and 38% have none at all in newspapers, TV and radio. Notably, this is the first time that the percentage of Americans with no trust at all in the media is higher than the percentage with a great deal or a fair amount combined


Gallup Poll - Presented October 18th

As can be predicted, Democratic support for mainstream media is much higher than Republican support, with Independents somewhere in between. But Registered Democrats (like Registered Republicans) are less than half of the population.

quote:


70% of Democrats, 14% of Republicans, 27% of independents trust media


In one of the charts, it had Democratic support of media trust broken down as follows: 18% Great Trust, 52% Fair Trust.

The OT wants anything even remotely political removed because they want to stick their heads back in the sand and act like everything is going great. They want to pretend the woke mind virus isn’t destroying our society even though the richest and arguably smartest man in the country just bought Twitter for this very reason.

Talk about being a sheep.

I’m pretty sure that title is reserved for me. And about 20 other people herein, I know. But I’m the real deal. Now, do I realize this extra-scholarly gift of intellect, not really because it’s usually not even needed around here. I didn’t mean that yes I did.

Or maybe, just maybe, people want a place void of political bullshite to relax and shoot the shite and not try to solve the worlds problems on an internet message board. That doesn’t make one a sheep, it makes them human.

Alot easier for them to be told what to do and think. Instead of thinking for themselves. Here's some money don't think just do as we say.

If 70% of America do not trust the media- why do the remaining 30% trust the media?

Could be that the referenced 30% really don’t pay much attention to begin with, thus their opinion doesn’t exactly reflect upon the specific situation anyway. And perhaps that group sorta has a default position of “trust” in the absence of any personal experience with it that would cause one to be actively distrustful of media.

Does that make sense at all? It really doesn’t to me. Let me know and I could give it another abbreviated shot.

Many of us are well aware of the deceit and all the things you mentioned.

So what are we to do?
Initiate civil disobedience and end up in a cell next door to a Jan 6 patriot who was arrested and jailed with no due process.

Maybe I should load up my 9mm handgun and when the APC with the swat team comes to kick down the door, go down in a hail of bullets from a paramilitary force?

We can't vote them out of office because ele tions are rigged.

How do you suggest we the sheeple proceed to take back our country?

The moral to the story is never form sweeping conclusions or opinions based on an anonymous internet message board. Or any other singular source for that matter. Personally, I think you all discombobulated at the present time. Go play with some titties and get your mind off things here, then reassess. The titties are key though, in my mind. But don’t listen to me on that, I’m preparing to go to titty rehab.
