No American should be on Facebook. Bunch of fucking pussies letting a company censor you and censor what you see? Facebook might be suitable for children with far left fucked up parents.



@richwicks What are the titles of books on propaganda that you found illuminating?

You mentioned some, but I can't remember their names.


@Patrick

I would suggest "Propaganda" to start with. This is Edward Bernays' seminal book, it's about marketing, not propaganda that you'd think of. The next book I'd recommend (and it's an easy read) is Toxic Sludge is Good For You by John Stauber. That's about astro-turf campaigns. BLM and Antifa were astro-turf campaigns.

Propaganda is influence. In the book he describes how influence can drive marketing - getting celebrities to wear certain clothing and use certain products. Propaganda is ultimately about marketing. It's psychology. "I'm not a doctor but I play one on TV" remember that? Our attitudes and beliefs are based off from what we see as being acceptable, and that's formed by television, film, and "news".

We are in a world of propaganda.

If you think a celebrity has an actual opinion, you're wrong. They are paid to produce that opinion. Do you think Jim Carrey actually has a clue what is going on in Yemen? Now that Biden is president, that's gone. Remember "Free Tibet"? That's gone. Celebrities sell their opinions. They have no moral convictions. They are paid to wear certain clothing, they are paid to have certain beliefs.

Some celebrities MIGHT have their own opinions and express them, THEY are destroyed.

Once you recognize propaganda for what it is, you'll see it everywhere. You don't need any book after that point. The big hurdle is being able to trust your own reasoning over the reasoning sent to you. People feel "I can't be smarter than the experts" - and that's true, but what are presented as experts aren't, they are propagandists. People who tell the truth who are actual experts, they're not heard and there's tremendous pressure to prevent them from being heard.

How much money is Fraudci making from vaccines?

And, seriously, is he connected to organized crime?


He's in government. Government is organized crime.

Don't think I'm making a flippant remark with that either. Our government is nothing but a criminal syndicate. This is why there is a double standard in the judicial system and laws are applied unequally. Our government is an organized criminal mafia, nothing more. No joke, no exaggeration.

I believe it.

How much exactly is Fauci making on the vaccines? How about people connected to him?

Tech billionaires are raking it in because of the deliberately stoked panic, shutdowns, and work from home orders.

And still I don't know a single person who died from the "virus", much less anyone who got seriously ill. And those who think they had it could have easily just a cold or the flu.

There is no flu anymore. Gone. 0 cases.
8317   Patrick   2021 Feb 14, 10:49am  

Exactly. ALL cases of flu are counted as Wuhan Virus now.

They need to keep their fake numbers up to keep people afraid and obedient.

To be honest Bhartis had it good before Hindoo.
Hindooo is no religion, It is bastardization of ancient Bharat's texts to serve invaders.

It is like looking at "Nazism" and saying Christianity supports "eugenics".
Hindooo is nothing more than Nazism and is dirty cultist blot on Bhartis.

Hindooo caste system = Nazi Eugenics.
Hindooo worship Hitler as their spiritual leader.

When somebody resorts to tactics like misspelling words, and basically using childish insults, this detracts from any legitimate argument or point you'd otherwise make.

I have to agree with richwicks @election2020

I think you have some good points, but I also think you're going about things the wrong way.

I will say same about "whats being said about left here" if I am not the insider.
After certain point, Garbage smell can't be treated with perfume.

You just need to look How cruel Hindooo is to understand my viewpoint.
Just imagine all the "conservatives" are burned alive on the streets and not getting justice for 35 years and told How loved conservatives are in US.
You will start to sound like me.

The problem is that people not on "your side" will often dismiss any argument you put forward as it's clear you are trying to influence opinion not with facts and logic, but by mere insults. I was annoyed constantly by the same thing back during the Iraq War when the US was killing Mooslims. It smacks of bigotry not reason. It's the same thing when I hear of KKKristians, and Dumbocrats and Republikkkans.

You can say whatever you like, but you're not going to get a Hindooo to reconsider their position by insulting them.

U.S.—As the media continues to gaslight the American people, cover for pedophiles, and retract information when it damages their political allies, the nation is increasingly wishing there were some sort of phrase to describe the kind of behavior befitting of an adversary of the populace.

"If only there were a catchy phrase, in use for hundreds of years in a variety of contexts, that succinctly described the way the corporate press is behaving," said one man in Nebraska. He shook his head. "Nothing comes to mind though."

Concerned citizens convened in Cleveland to come up with a cogent callsign for the corporate cable news media.

Here is what they've come up with so far:

Adversary of the populace
Opposition of the citizenry
Opponent of the masses
Traitor to the inhabitants
Villian of the plebeians
Foe of the folk
Antagonist of the population
"Nothing quite has the right ring to it," said a man from Iowa, rubbing his chin. "We just can't put our finger on what to call these guys."

Hindooo is not "indvidual" but a "Dirty cult".
If someone want to remain part of dirty cult , Let he/she be, We can't stop showing its ugly reality and insulting its followers.

Insults worked very well against Nazis after they were defeated, Hardly anyone dares to call themselves Nazi.
Hindooo is very close to Nazi on cruelty and human rights violations, There is large population in world preparing to engender its demise and hopefully would make it very toxic.
Sikh genocide done by Hindoooo cult:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984_anti-Sikh_riots

Hindoooo genocidal rape/riot cult has no similarities with political parties.
If republicans or democrats start burning alive innocents on streets , we can have some comparison.

I've explained your error in attempted persuasion, I'm not going to persist.

You're not going to change anybody's minds with your bullshit. You either talk rationally and explain what they don't know, or you resort to stupid childish rhetoric which anybody that is worth persuading ignores.

I am stating the facts and obvious violations of human rights with proof.
My only obligation is to tell truth and insult the cruelty as much as I can.

If after knowing facts, somebody wants to be "traitor to humanity" that is his/her choice.
I am not here to convince anybody.

People Who Moved To Texas From California Finally Feeling At Home Now That Power Is Out

AUSTIN, TX—Thousands of people who escaped the desolate wasteland of California have found new opportunities by moving to Texas. To help them feel right at home, even the weather is extending some Texas hospitality by knocking out power stations-- giving the former Californians a taste of the blackouts they're used to.

"Ah... just like old Gavin Newsom used to do back in Cali," said local resident Alice Muggins while lighting candles around the house. "I just wasn't used to having electrical power all the time and it felt really weird. Now, it feels a little more like home!"

According to sources, former Californians are helping people in their Texas communities who have never experienced something like this before. From how to prepare food without electricity to how to use an emergency generator, the Californian immigrants to Texas have been instrumental in keeping their communities alive in the midst of the outages.

California Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to gloat in a Facebook Live post, but his phone died and he was unable to charge it due to a power outage.

OMG, the Bee just keeps nailing it!

I tried to sign up for their premium service ($50/year) but was not able because I have all Google domains blocked and they require a Google recaptcha to even pay them.

So I tried to send them a note about how it's not wise to depend on not being cancelled by Google, but even their message form will not work without Google deciding they like you or not, and guess what? Google would not let me through their recaptcha.

So I looked up their address and wrote them a physical letter. I hope they get it and understand what I'm saying.

@Patrick - use Brave in TOR mode and it will bypass what I assume is your /etc/hosts file which I'm guessing you are using to block google sites.

I block nearly everything from Google, but I can go to www.google.com itself although I rarely do. I'm also in the habit of always being on the web in "incognito" mode - cookies and other nonsense I pick up get wiped when I close the browser.
