Wow I'm discovering we're more alike by the second. I'm certainly in my personal journey of discovering truth beneath the corporate fed slop. I unsubscribed to NYT in 2017.

I have thought for years that many people bounce their minds between the left and right extremes only to falsely convince themselves the middle must be the reasonable place to be when in fact the truth or ethics are on a different spectrum entirely.

I'm thankful my brain has a natural tendency to know logic and morality that aides my search, but you're right. It's questioning everything from the beginning just to have a starting picture. Propaganda from childhood forward. History written by the victors.

Manufactured consent is the hot topic amongst some of my friends at the moment. We've abandoned all "sides" in US politics searching for a solution to the ever strengthening tyranny of evil.

Thank you for sharing these sources and information. I'll happily research further.
