You can't believe what you see right now. I remember watching people doing insane things on Facebook back in 2011 but it was all fake. Nothing has changed.

- jahn716 7y ago>but it was all fake. You mean like scenes shot with actors to imply certain events happening? ex. scenes protests in some city when it's actually just a bunch of actors making it look like a protest is happening?
- zentiggr 7y agoExactly. Propaganda and misdirection has been a constant for a few thousand years. The harder lesson is learning to catch yourself and see past it before getting manipulated. The hardest lesson is not knee jerking and giving those who want to control you the tools to limit everyone's speech to just approved material. (China, Iran, Vietnam, North Korea, these ring a bell? VERY slippery slope.)
