It's not a choice. Brainwash is powerful and that's one way to put it but it's more like hypnosis. Power of suggestion. They're under a spell.

I like that way of thinking. Its much kinder to say that than to say they are a bunch of stupid gullible dicks. :OD
After years of studying the people, rather than information they're presenting, and noticing a trend, things become quite clear.
Yup, its almost depressing
There's no way to get through to them. And the anger that often presents itself when questioning is actually fear.
Absolutely. No way of getting through. They are remarkably rigid in the way that they have pretty much been indoctrinated to think which is hilarious because the are usually the ones calling others stupid or sheep when really they are saying what they fear being the most
"Remember to always do your own research," and similar jargon delivered in the way we often see when observing some forms of information; it's meant to put the mind at ease so it's more susceptible to the suggestions soon to follow. Same with throwing the word 'truth' around. When you're talking to someone or reading studies, about anything, and in general, there's never a need to continuously remind anyone what you're saying is the truth. Then when supporters can be observed parroting, that's how you know you got em. These social media tools are incredibly powerful, those who invented them know exactly what they're capable of, and at times when they go around stamping out some forms of independently produced media, they're not attempting to stop the information from spreading, they simply don't want to be responsible for the worst case scenario doomsday cult, nor do they want to be responsible for the steps that led up to it. In many cases they're not looking at the information, they're looking at the consumers and their reaction. I've been meaning to write an article about that for some time now.
You should write the article. I feel you would be eminently placed to put it out there well.
As soon as I see or hear it, the moment they start swearing its the truth or saying you shouldn't follow their advice wink wink you know they are just full of the brown stuff
