That’s interesting. If you think about it, the more you can rely on yourself (grow food, raise animals, make clothing, furniture, hunt...) the more independent you are. Pushing everyone into suburbia where you can buy everything and watch “programming” with your free time makes you more susceptible. Also to your final point when people are highly educated, they learn to look at information intellectually (based on perceived science) and remove gut or connection to God for answers. It’s been a long range plan.
Yup.
How many times have we found our first instinct to have been spot on?
Society pushes us to gives second chances, but I have always found that my first instinct about was the right one. You may not know rationally what is wrong with someone, but your subconscious mind gets it.
To make people susceptible to brainwashing they had to make us doubt our instincts.
They poison our food, our air, and our water. When our mind is dulled so are our instincts.
