Your friends and family honestly believe that the Mainstream News "is not allowed to lie." That's why these same friends and family think you are an insane fucking moron for not believing what Mainstream News tells you.
They do not understand that propaganda was very quietly LEGALIZED IN THE UNITED STATES IN 2013. After that, the news outlets no longer "had" to tell the truth.
This is how MSM gets away with it.
Not too long ago the Rachel Maddow show was sued for lying and spreading garbage as "news." But the courts pointed to this 2013 ruling and said shows like that were not news, but "entertainment," and nothing changed. She's still on the air doing exactly the same thing.
This change was made very quietly in 2013. Who was in the White House as President of the United States in 2013?
If the normies ever do realize that this happened, and that we know about it but they do not - that could change an awful lot.
Show it to everyone you know and see what happens.
Here is one link, but this is easily researched. Anyone can find a link to a source they are willing to believe: https://citizentruth.org/government-allowed-use-propaganda/
