I couldn't agree with you more. I see so many of the things people post online, or even the things people I've known all my life say to me because of what the news said and so on. I just wish they would read, do their research, and develop opinions based on their own perception. Not just seeing media and going along, or believing information just because they were told that's how it is. Honestly one of the best reads I've saw recently, thanks for sharing! Upvoted and resteemed.
P.S. You're not trying to brainwash me, right?!
I only brainwash dirty minds.
You know the funny thing is that many of the facts they present as truth are so easy to debunk if people would only check the facts for themselves.
For example, the immigration problem in America and illegal immigrants coming into our borders. One only has to look at the US Immigration website to discover that since 1980 there have been just as many people leaving the US back to Mexico as there have been coming into the US illegally. There they will also find that 89% of all illegal immigrants coming into the US from Mexico do so on an airplane so building a wall won't solve the "fake" problem.
In my lifetime Ronald Reagan stood in front of the Berlin wall and said, "Tear down this wall" and now we have people wanting to build one. Crazy.
We call democratically elected leaders in other countries dictators if they don't support our foreign policies of taking their oil and no one here calls the media on it for fear of being called un-American. We invade countries all the time to control their resources in the name of democracy. It's insane.
