Eyes don't "see", they merely receive and transmit optic data, which is then processed by something called a brain, that operates in accordance with how people are "educated". So tell me, Maggot, do you think children are taught how to think, or what to think, and what effect do preconceptions and beliefs have on human perception? Do you know, or even care?

If you're a registered Republican, you will soon be experiencing an accute appreciation of just how painful this sensitivity can be -- unless Trump's balls drop down and he starts implementing the "countermeasures" that QAnon has been blathering on about for the last four years.
So tell me, do you feel lucky?

Right, so you know jack shit about what a .45 hollowpoint would do to a person anotomically, and have no clue as to the meaning of what you saw aside from what you've been told by media outlets that have a vested interest in keeping the masses divided.

I believe some kids are easily persuaded at least the less intelligent ones. The smarter ones have better perception and can see more and put 2&2 together better. So they tend to not be so well trained. Smart kids are scheming little buggers. Dumb kids do what they're told and don't ask questions.

"Smart kids", scheming little buggers though they be, are nonetheless malleable, because that is an inherent characteristic of being human. We are social beings, hence the phenomenon of human socialization, which has a profound impact on how we develop and mature -- or don't, which very much seems to be the case in this world at present.

The Simpsons are so far ahead of everything I feel the writers are aliens.

We see different news so that's probably why I haven't seen anyone say it's impossible, most simply want to see some evidence of that. Even trump's own people couldn't do that. Oh well...

When you take the "blue pill" you're agreeing to the TOS for the "matrix", which means truth is whatever the matrix says it is. So blue-pilled sheeple have zero interest in seeing anything that isn't officially designated as "truth". This is why the concept of "fake news" is so laughable, Duchess: because "official truth", by definition, is dogma.

Another possibility is that the deep-staters have a twisted sense of humor.

If I was a Politician I would not read up on the French Revolution.

If there is a God, all of these people who betrayed the public trust and violated their solemn oaths are in very serious trouble. Personally, I don't think it's very plausible that this amazingly complex system we reside in just popped into being one day out of thin air. Science as I understand it tells us that you don't get something out of nothing.

If I were a politician, I'd probably be pissing every other politician off for not following Robert's Rules of Order.
