politics

there is good ones

why wouldn't they do that

and as long as it doesn't ruin the average person's life then they will never realize they were tricked

its the individuals responsibility to not let themselves be misled

It doesn't matter whose responsibility it is

everybody gets screwed

it is the root of the problem that should be changed

Bruh

that is exactly what should be changed

if you don't fix the root, the problem will only come back

wait i misread that

It would be impossible to get the average person to do all that research about every issue

but the average person is the root of the issue

no it's the billionaries funding the spreading of disinformation

and foreign governments

they do that because they can. and they can only do that because of the average person

And it would be impossible to change the average persons mindset enough that they cannot do that

Muddying the water around the truth to make it harder to find the truth is an effective tactic Dialga. Since people do not have infinite time, if you increase the time needed to find the correct information, then people really have no chance to even begin to not be retarded

it's not impossible, you just think it is because it's difficult

the mindset of a population can change, and it has happened in the past

Dialga, xBrox thought Nintendo was closing down because she saw an article today

The mindsets of populations have only ever changed around politicians and governments, not the search for the truth

I don't think xBrox is particularly dumb, but people glace at something and internalize it without thinking sometimes

mindset changes only happen when things get to bad for disinformation to cover up

and when xbrox was presented with different information she corrected her thinking

Yeah, but what if you don't see the correct information

ever

exactly

because there is too much information flooding you

and everyone around you also fell for the false info

so none of them can question it

exactly

So, in short, Ted Kaczynski was right and we should all go back to living in the woods

You mean

he was right

mail bombs

etc

yes

because they are so easy to trick

Yes, but they would have far less reach

and be easier to counter

i dont think you should be using the nintendo shutting down article as your proof people can change their thinking

I don't, but xBrox falling for that was really funny

i only used it as an example because pika brought it up lol

This is the plot to metal gear solid 2

grimace based

People get jaded that their votes don't change things instantly, which is a feature not a problem

21 year old idealists are just convinced that "the system is rigged" because it's not changing radically and rapidly to suit what they view as being necessary

When the majority of Americans, left or right leaning, are fairly content

Yeah, people bitch about gas being expensive, or schools being sub-par, or other (in the grand scheme) trivial things

No one's going to go kill politicians if their lives are generally good

And we end up with retards in office because anyone with an ounce of passion doesn't want to run on the platform of "I'm going to change absolutely nothing"

Even if that's what everyone from average Joe to billionaires want

The failure of our system is that things usually have to get bad for things to change, which is why compared to a lot of Europe everyone says America as a whole is right-leaning

Anyway, I'm driving rn, yell at me later for my take Mint

nah your fine, I had some good takes lined up last night but passed out early, I hate arguing politics anyways

just uh, the class struggle is the only actual struggle, everything else is to detract ya yada yada

distract

You’re not allowed to call your own take good

Especially not you

lol

nah I meant ones to follow up with, not what I posted

doesn't matter though

Your opinion doesn’t

Correct

Everything I say is a good take

Everything anyone else says is bad

everything i say is a horrible take

everything anyone else says is somehow worse

Hold up

Why is politics chat pigstep

Politics should easily be disk 11

Garbage made disc fragment a channel and skipped stal

Anyone who read the dobbs ruling knows that this is what the ruling did
