In the mid to late 60's there was a brief period when the counter culture was ahead of the curve. The young people of the time were able to disseminate the propaganda that was designed to usher in support for the Vietnam War, allow the continuance of covert operations abroad etc. How did governments and big businesses respond? They just incorporated the counter culture.

When the masses aren't following your lead the elite have no other choice. The rich at just peasants without the weight of mass labour. You need to pull your head out of your ass.

you just know that when an article starts with The Globalists work through various versions of socialism and quasi-socialism and Communism and Marxism and "free the people" and all sorts of other slogans and guiding ideas, it's bound to be a load of sh1t

Yep just like you! Grin

The Wizard Of Oz explains it. The elite use smoke and mirrors to dupe the masses. When the masses stop believing the show the elite have to buckle to popular opinion. That's how it works muppet. All your blueblood mates will be licking Pauline Hanson's hairy red map of Tassie when she gets above 15%. It's either that or get her wacked.

This topic (and much more) is covered in this excellent podcast.

I listen to a lot of joe rogans podcasts but Jordan Petersons first appearance was the only one I listened to twice. (The posted vid is his second appearance, and I'm only halfway through it). His speaking is so information dense and his clarity of thought is excellent, making this an absolute must hear.

Yes. Jordan Peterson is very well informed. He's one speaker I will always listen to.

the problem is that you determine 'fake' as being information you dont like so your argument becomes worthless.

Its a Biblical quote and I know it very well. That does not stop you being a gullible fool who swallows anything and everything Trump says ad does.
