Chef Jim Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 This is a pretty asinine question. Do I believe what I'm told? Sometimes yes sometimes no. If you don't question you're not learning. That's why I laugh at those who give me ***** for asking questions. 1 1

Chef Jim Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 BTW I'm very cynical by nature so the answer is often NO.
{::'KayCeeS::} Posted October 2, 2020 Author Posted October 2, 2020 If I know one thing about myself, it's that I have been brainwashed by everything around me, and that I have only found myself by having the balls to question everything I thought was sacrosanct. All I'm saying is: you will be shocked by how much you thought you knew turns out to be absolute BS upon investation. 2

Okay, so the question goes to you... Do you question your "preconceived biases" or do you just go about it? Reading your normal sources of info?

Good question, Greybeard, it's actually much more than that. As far as my research goes, Reality is MUCH different than what the MSM tells us. Yes, it's shocking. Or was shocking. Now I just live with it, because I have to. 2 minutes ago, Tiberius said: Like? Examples? Honestly? Pick something.

Yes, honestly. Ok, how about Trump’s constant lies

So, in other words, you don’t care about his lies, and you will pull the old False equivalency angle to protect Trump. Ya, it’s pretty clear what your angel is

If you tell him that Trump is the representative of an alternative global project to replace the old Breton Woods model, his head might explode. Please be gentle with him.
