It is amazing to watch my country from the outside transform into 1930s Germany. The propaganda there is ubiquitous. The pacing of the public (a majority at least) to accept anything government officials say, particularly military officals, even when what is said is 180° different from what what said yesterday.

A short incomplete list of major changes in positions in the last 10 years:

- Juilan Assange is a hero. Assange is a villain.

- UFOs aren't real. UFOs are real.

- False flags aren't real. False flags are real.

- China is a partner. China is a dangerous regime.

- Vaccines are suspect (developed under Trump). Vaccines are totally safe (still developed under Trump, but distributed under Biden)

- Snowden is a villian. Snowden is a hero (shortly). Snowden is again a villain.

- Comey is a villain. A hero. A villain. A hero. Ah fuck it, we'll tell you tomorrow.

I'm not a psychologist (hell, it takes me 3 tries just to spell it), but I think the US populace has been so traumatized by its state media (under the guise of "free enterprise") that now they've been "paced." Most people just mentally accept whatever is said (as opposed to what they see) so that they don't start having mental breakdowns every second day from cognitive dissonance.
