the wealthy buy our politicians and then brainwash the masses via media, academia (particularly social sciences). sound accurate or no?
thanks for your answer, daniel. just to clarify, im not anti-education or anything like that and i tend to put more faith in hard sciences than anything else. its the social sciences that i think are corrupted and too influenced by politics. Ads |

How did you learn that all media is owned by six companies?
My guess: you learned it through the media. Are you sure that you're not the one who is brainwashed? |

Yes. This is why all pundits are either "left" or "right" and almost none are independent unless they are very intentionally non-biased in any form and thus thoroughly ineffective.

Ya had me till you went to academia. Learning is not bad, no matter what the source of it provided it does no direct harm.
