I Love a Good Quote

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”
-Carl Sagan-

"Hello, liberal utopianism, the globalist surveillance police state and those who surrender their freedoms to this tyranny." -Me

@Cyanide: “In a world where critical thinking skills are almost wholly absent, repetition effectively leapfrogs the cognitive portion of the brain. It helps something get processed as truth. We used to call it unsubstantiated buy-in. Belief without evidence. It only works in a society where thinking for one's self is discouraged. That's how we lost our country.”

"Far too many people today rely on google for their "thinking," which is destroying the ability to think critically. When the ability to think critically becomes destroyed, all bets are off. People can be led around on chains and leashes. In today's world the chains and leashes are invisible but even more damaging. We kind of lost our country when people gave up their freedoms in exchange for convenience and being amused." -Me-
