When finding information or quoting sources, do you find government websites a reliable source?
What branch of the government? Some agencies I trust more than others, but the Government on a whole? No not really. I think we are spoonfed bullshit consistently and constantly.
I trust to question Everything.
@silvereyes ah okay. I have limited trust in most things government controlled.
I don't listen to their opinions, I value the data.
No way, how can anyone trust the 2 greatest psychopaths and liars in the world- Government and Centro banking.
Give me creativeity and empathy.
Howdy ,
New here and I was just gonna rubberneck , but on third thought...........
Ya know old Eric Blair ( aka. George Orwell ) wrote so eloquently about what most believe is conceptual in his description of " The Ministry of Propaganda". Fact of the matter is , Mr Blair spoke from first hand knowledge,having worked for said ministry from 1940 to 44. That ministry better know as the "BBC". In fact he left prior to the end of the festivities better know as WW2, (read as "culling the heard" ) I guess the the queens well polished and luxuriously upholstered shitbag of Propaganda left sir Eric with a burr under his saddle cause what he consequently wrote about said ministry in 1984 (the novel) was every bit as much about
the BBC brand of doublespeak as it was the communist brand.
Yet another thought.......
Allen Ginsberg ( not Bull Lee) coin the term "Naked Lunch" as a reaction to the medias reaction to the Supreme Court case of his poem Howl.
A restaurant full of naked people whom are so blown away by each others nudity that they fail to see what's on the end of their forks.......
At best sensationalism, at worst , misinformations.boot of oppression.
One of the first media moguls , Horace Greely said.
"You can always pay one half of the poor, to kill the other half"
Why stop at half....?
Use media to "divide and conquer", and divide and divide and divide......that way the half you have to pay is smaller and smaller and smaller.......
Sound business principals .........
I don't know what to trust anymore. People are never in the loop to know the real truth about what's going on. It's the news people that dig for answers that want to be first with a cover-up that keep us aware of things. We would of never known about Nixon's crime if it hadnt of been for the news paper digging into it.
I trust my government to give me a lot of information. Now, if you ask me do I trust that information...
sums them all up really
Healthy, and I do mean VERY healthy skepticism is employed any time I am processing the information fed to us by those in charge who are supposed to be serving us. Largely, I think that our government has sold out to corporate interests at the expense of productivity for individuals. Some, like the FDA, I trust about as far as I can throw my car. Others, refer to the first sentence, and we'll see.
No, no & no! quite refreshing to be with the majority for once in my life
State Run Propaganda? I am not living in Germany in 1933. So Nope.
