I often wonder how people would react to a pair of glasses like in the movie They Live (1988)?
Only the best documentary ever...I still haven't found a pair if sunglasses yet... |

Many are too lazy to dig just beneath the surface to find the facts. Just take others' word for honest information. Having the knowledge of history, civics, current events, global dynamics, democracy/socialism/communism, geography and economics is shallow in general. It especially bothers me with voting. People don't look for factual information about candidates. . THAT is what makes it so easy for them to be manipulated! it is A LOT harder to manipulate someone who is well informed about things!! problem is, far too many who base trustworthiness on the WHO instead of the WHAT believe themselves to be well informed. |
