It's all one big game to the governments holding the most power or perceived power.

One thing I've learned is, few seem to like to watch videos here. The longer they are the less comments that come. I even did a poll on reading news versus video news shortly after starting this group. No one took the poll 
Go figure. I had to learn that in time. Some issues just don't seem to raise concern to people either. For example, Venezuela, Yemen, and Syria. They tend to get the least amount of views. And these issues deal directly towards the illusion our government, intelligence agencies, and media have over the population. I have essentially the same few good members here that are active and have a sense of real concern to issues, but I can't draw many members into long enough to get a sense of that illusion they've been absorbed in. Many don't seem to want to challenge that what they think they know, actually don't know.

I don't understand all the issues but I do know our government in the past has been pretty deplorable, I see no reason think it is any different now. Apathy set in a long time ago, if it does not effect them personally there is little interest. BUT keep posting, I enjoy them, not always able to comment but always love food for thought.
On another website I find the same thing. People feel like they're wasting their time if they watch something they don't know about. They have their same biased ideas just like when reading sources too though, but not as much as a video. It's funny sometimes because it could be a 3 minute video and they feel like they will waste their time, unlike already being on the website for like 40 minutes and arguing their points lol. If you can't entertain someone's thought for 3 minutes and dispute it or at least think there is a chance you can learn something then it doesn't surprise me the way people are today with politics and the two party system.
Also, if it's not a "trusted" source, meaning CNN, MSNBC, FOX, etc. (depending on which aisle of politics they identify), then they will automatically dismiss it. This is why it leads to what you said, "And these issues deal directly towards the illusion our government, intelligence agencies, and media have over the population."
