It's annoying that so many people have no clue about legal tax strategies that are built into the tax law. An example is real estate depreciation. Ignorant people are fooled by the misleading media and politicians.

If there are no conspiracies, ask them why there are RICO laws.

At the beginning of this, the images of people falling over in the street in China, set the tone for a lot of people. The hoodwinked public never asked why they didn't see that as a symptom in other countries.

And universities were mandating the jabs for students.

It's hard to believe people are fooled so easily.

I think the average attention span, now, is measured in seconds-- the attention span of a gnat.

Matt Taibbi: "It's been a whirlwind 96 hours for me, too. There is much more to come, including answers to questions about issues like shadow-banning, boosting, follower counts, the fate of various individual accounts, and more. These issues are not limited to the political right."

I've noticed the parallels between pro wrestling and politics for a while, now. Using carnival-wrestling slang, many in the Republican party are jobbers against the DNC (wrestlers who routinely, or exclusively, lose matches are known as jobbers or "dummy wrestlers").

Good. You'll enjoy feeling healthier and better throughout the day.

The Asch conformity experiments show how this could happen. "This finding illuminates the power that even a small dissenting minority can have upon a larger group. This demonstrates the importance of privacy in answering important and life-changing questions, so that people do not feel pressured to conform."

I think the narrative of people leaving Twitter, because of Elon, is pushed so that it disguises the fact that the radical left is a small minority. Then when online Twitter polls show how many people are against their ideas, they can claim it's because "progressives" have left the platform, and it's just some right-wing minority who are left there.

Yet, some people don't understand why there are "food deserts."

I'm going to start making more screenshots of articles and comments, so when some commentator in the future claims it's just a Mandela Effect, I'll have some evidence that what they're denying did, in fact, happen.

For those old enough, like me, to have watched Dobie Gillis, Sheila Kuehl was Zelda Gilroy on that show. I didn't know that until I looked her up.

Reminds me of the George C Scott character in Dr. Strangelove. "I'm not saying we won't get our hair mussed, but, I do say no more than 10 to 20 million killed... tops."

The last line in your post, in particular, is very good.

Waiting for "fact checkers" to provide a Streisand Effect?

It's people who watch TV regularly. People who watch the cable and network news can't believe they're not getting the straight scoop. It's like "They Live." And if TV and talk shows keep up the narrative, I don't see how more time is going to wake more people up.

We're conspiracy analysts.

31 days from Sept 8 is 10/9. That's closer to where the watch is pointing.

People have been taking herbal supplements for many years. Why the uptick in problems this year? Don't cardiologists use reason?

Klaus Schwab says don't worry about the bugs.

That's great, but there are new puppets, I'm sure.
