Sounds like a mental illness, when everything you call reality is a lie?
Delusions, or illusions the Activist Media fed us, were all lies.
What happens to that scenario, if you can think for yourself, away from the echo chambers.

You become an Alex Jones Zombie. Devoid of common, rational thought and riddled with imaginary psychosis.

Good luck with all that.

Trust me, the truth is neither conservative or liberal. The truth is just depressing.


The problem with truths, is that it is like peeling an onion. Each layer of truth is a new reality. As you begin to peel the onion, it may at first seem left or right, but if you keep peeling, you'll see it is both, and neither.

The problem isn't that we've been lied to. The problem is in why they have to lie to us. What at first seems sinister, is actually necessary.


Problems can't be solved, only transformed. As soon as you solve one problem, you'll create two more.

We all know what we're trying to fix, but there are consequences and costs to everything. What are the costs?

The truth is depressing and maybe should not be looked at by is it liberal or conservative.

In reality we have two camps, in one we have extreme war mongers and interventionist that are backed by the banks, the leaders, and the American people themselves. And on the other you have the extreme environmentalist that want drastic measures to save the planet from man made climate change.

Now who do you think is going to win? modern day war that could include nukes is a bigger threat to the environment and man kind then how much beef people are consuming. We can re cycle every can and plastic but until there is a change in foreign policy it is all in vain. Think of the impact of nukes or massive amounts of oil fields burning on the earth and the people.

I think that is the the truth and reality, the MIC and our own leaders are the biggest threat to the environment and man kind not some guy eating a cheese burger or driving a SUV. Now you think the environmentalist instead of attempting to turn the world green would be also pushing for better foreign policy. Until they do all their wonderful measures to save the planet will go up and smoke.

The OP and the conflagration of several other Trump supporters on this forum face this dilemma every day.

Well, then we have been watching too much CNN, InfoWars, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, Fox, and other news outlets.
