It's simple. Dumb down the populace and they're easy to manipulate and control. Just think about this. Pop music in the 80's was written at a high school, entry college level. Pop music today is written at a 6-7th grade level.

I SALUTE TO ALL WHO ARE IN THE MILITARY!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!

Even though I am in Aus, I have respect for your service Zed 🙂

They always try and brainwash you with their acting and lies

I mean the "science" that tells us we are all manipulated by marketing to be fat for instance.

Read "Crystallizing Public Opinion" by Edward Bernays. Start there

well, its not that simple, i dont want to get into it at that level beccause it would just be a whole bunch of semantics, philosophy, and tiny nit picks about the subject

There is tons of propaganda. Do you think Monsanto is an evil corporation? You fell for the propaganda.

these news sources know that they can lie and correct themselves later but the correction wont reach 10% of the people who read the wrong headlines

true

@TheSliceOfLife Or they bury the retraction deep.

Aight imma head out

Cya tmro

and i wasnt implying the super straight forward stuff like "Youre only fat because they advertise food in a tasty way!" im talking about the little things that you dont even realize.

yeah they put it in the middle/bottom of the article

See ya!

see ya oddname1

My propaganda works well, I will be wide president for over 4 decades!

see ya

They should be forced to pay for coverage to get the same number of impressions for their corrections as for their lies lol

Front page headlines get retracted on page 8.

Tyler you should add a levels bot so we can rank up in the channel

Exactly. Hence equal impressions for retractions.

Rank doesn't get you anything though does it????

nah its just something extra for fun

A free toaster?

ohh guys I am on a zoom meeting.. they are droning on and on and on and on

just a lil incentive to being active lol

no, just bragging rights for level, unless we were to set up ranks and rank colors for it, which i dont think is somethign we want too do. we already have several colored ranks.

So you can quantity the time you wasted online looool

basically lmao

yes

Good evening you gaggle of morally defunct degenerates

I think the bot would break down after witnessing my wideness

Interesting way to say hello

We all must be equal. Only lobsters have ranks 😐

Revive the bluecans

You know why the Democrats suddenly think Russia is the great threat after being soft commies for so long?

word

@Jwolf I thought so too

i understand the server boost rank but i hate how people spend money on discord
