    somehow, north korea is a FANTASTIC litmus test to find out if the person you’re speaking with is heavily propagandized or not.

    that shit is literally public record now thanks to the freedom of information act and that the fact that an overwhelming majority of americans still believe in the american propaganda nonetheless is astounding; it’s like they WANT to be misinformed.

      They do, they just to want to admit it, most would rather just wrap themselves up in it than face the difficult truth. Bread and circuses and all that

        Yeah but there’s neither bread nor circus to be had; it’s just autopilot now.
