Do You know If You Have Been Brainwashed?

[Meropatrick]

If you figured it out, what kind of Brainwashing u were subjected to.

Yes, But I didn't figure Out Yet To What extent

Yes, Thats Why I Changed Many Of My Old Ideas

No, I dont Think I have Been Brainwashed Ever

What Is Brainwashing? Laundry?

[Lliam]

Yes, that's why I've changed many of my ideas (not my ideals or values).

Once I started realizing that the government and media deceive and withhold information as a matter of policy, I was able to open my mind to researching beyond the popular/official narrative.
In doing so, I started discovering things I hadn't imagined. It's like going into dangerous, uncharted territory.

I continue to learn every day. I avoid "believing" what I read or hear. Instead, I formulate opinions based on what I know so far. And I revise or change my opinions as more information becomes available.

Some people would call me a conspiracy theorist for seeking answers to questions. But I consider "conspiracy theorist" to be another word for "fact checker" or "truth seeker".

“Truth doesn't mind being questioned. A lie does not like being challenged.” Nietzsche.

I know. I've got a lot of nerve questioning authority, seeking out second opinions from various experts in order to get a full perspective, and using my own powers of reason to come to my own conclusions.

It's funny how, the more you learn, the more questions you have. And the less you know, the more certain you are that you have all the facts. Morons believe manufactured consensus as if it's Holy Scripture.

"Genius abhors consensus because when consensus is reached, thinking stops. Stop nodding your head". - Albert Einstein

"Historically, the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled. Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you're being had. The greatest scientists in history are great precisely because they broke with the consensus." - Michael Crichton

"Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform (or pause and reflect)." - Mark Twain

" funny how, the more you learn, the more questions you have. And the less you know"
This phrase really struck something in my mind because i have been feeling like that a lot lately. I read many books from different niches and i felt my mind is filled with information. I thought i would feel wise or educated But at the same time i felt that i know too little about life still and more questions are there that has still no answer

If you believe Trump, you've been brainwashed.

I was going to write examples, but life's too short.

[Kingofkings1992]

Trump was arguably the best president in US history. You don’t have any clue what you are talking about.

[exitseven]

I have not been brainwashed. I try to pay attention to things around me and I am very results oriented.

[goaded]

How many times has Trump lied?

Did Trump say Mexico would pay for the wall, or not?

[exitseven]

@goaded Was gas under 2 bucks a gallon? Did we have the most secure border in 50 years? Was inflation 1.4%. Was the stock market at record levels? Did we have no new wars? Did the middle class get a real tax cut? Results are what counts.

[goaded]

Do you see how you didn't answer the question?

[exitseven]

@goaded Mexico provided troops at the border at their expense. He could have got Mexico to pay for the wall too. He could have threatened more tariffs. He was pragmatic about it. He took the path that would have got the best results. He got it almost finished which was amazing since he was fought the whole time. Each illegal alien that gregt kept out saves the taxpayers $50.000 a year/ every single year going forward. They are the gift that keeps giving.

[goaded]

Did Trump say Mexico would pay for the wall, or not? It's a yes or no question.

[exitseven]

@goaded okay, mexico did not pay for the wall. Did Trump get the result he wanted? It is the results that are important. He got 90% of the wall built and the other 10% was left to rust on the ground by Mr Potato Head.

[goaded]

Still not quite the question I asked: "Did Trump say Mexico would pay for the wall"? (Bear with me, there is a point to this.)

[exitseven]

@goaded es whats the point? That he lied? He got the job done that he was hired to do. Maybe it did not go exactly like he said it would but if he was allowed to stay in office the whole wall would be complete today and we would not have any of the problems we are having with illegal aliens.

[goaded]

The point is that he's now saying he had campaigned for the presidency in 2016 on a promise that Mexico would pay for “a piece” of his border wall. Do you remember him ever saying "a piece" in 2016, or just "the wall"? Bet you can't find a quote from back then.

[exitseven]

@goaded He got Mexico to pay for troops at the border,. He got the wall built even thought he was fought against it the whole way and delivered the most secure border in modern times for the American people. Yes okay, he did not do what he said he would do but he did get the job done.

Biden said he would unite the country. Did he do anyrthing that even remotely looked like he was the least bit interested in uniting the country? As a result we have the most fractured country since the Civil War.
Can you watch this video with a straight face?

[goaded]

Again you're distracting from the point that he's lying right now, claiming he ever said he'd get Mexico to pay for "part of" the wall in 2016. Can you now admit that he lies to you?

[exitseven]

@goaded When did he say that he never said that? I never saw that. It that was true it qould have been all over the news. Can you find the video?

[goaded]

Maybe you should watch something other than OANN. I'm saying he never said he'd get Mexico to pay for "part of the wall", sorry "a piece of the wall", in 2016, he only ever said he'd get Mexico to pay for the whole thing.

27:47 "... you remember I used to say Mexico will pay for the piece of the wall I'll say what's going to happen with they fight I said the wall gets higher we all had a lot of fun but said Mexico will pay for a piece of the wall well there was no legal instrument "

Find me one time he said in 2016 "Mexico will pay for a piece of the wall".

[Kingofkings1992]

@goaded you don’t even live in the US. You do not get to talk about US politics. Button that lip. 🤐

[goaded]

@Kingofkings1992 Do the words "ad hominem" mean anything to you?

[Kingofkings1992]

@goaded nope.

[Surely]

I didn’t vote for Biden. So, I must not have been brainwashed!

[jahaims]

I thought America were the good guys until around the age of 12.

[Static_In_The_Attic]

Turn on the news if you want to be brainwashed.
