Nice to see a video with no [pie-us] whatsoever. Not even a little [pie-us].
I think [Bad Eddy] must've flipped on a [zen-zor-ship] switch, as you can barely discuss the video without your [commit] being shadow-[DEL]. Everyone is going to be writing in [cod] just to communicate, at this rate. Seriously, I posted a [unworthy] comment singing their praises, and that gets through fine.
100% [recyclable] [power] is really [laugh-causing], though. I guess that'll be roughly three times as many [power turned off] as [that West-coast state] is having.
It's also [laugh-causing] that, thinking about how a [giant] thinks is dangerous. What kind of [sicko-hath] is unable to think about how [non-good] people think, without the risk of becoming [wicked]?
Perhaps the [un-smartest] thing about the video is it doesn't know what the word [giant] implies. If a [property gander] campaign was [gianting], then [see en en] and [Tricker] would be the biggest [giants] in the world.
No, I'm wrong. the [un-smartest] thing is the [hippo chrissy]. Really, a Pro-[

I think conspiracy theories are all about 'exclusivity, ' old forms of trafficking in exclusivity versus new forms. If it's not having the accoutrements of material wealth, then it is membership to communities that are 'in the know' that become precious and estimable. Think of great sagas, like Star Wars, that feature a hardcore rebel faction fighting against a totalitarian order that demonstrates it's truth by being ubiquitous and brutal. It's not hard to position the 'rational' modern media, scientific 'consensus' and mainstream political structures as just that, a brutal hegemony, in the context of popular discourse. It's very compelling to fight for your 'truth' in this manner!
Whatever makes lives more meaningful will come into greater and greater demand as genuine dynamic human relationships wane, the clamouring for vital emotional and material resources reaches an increasingly frenetic pitch and the value drains out of human existence.

I would also recommend reading about ideals and ideologies you may disagree with as well. For example, the word fascist has become completely warped by both the right and the left in modern day society. To understand the ideology at its core, read the Doctrine of Fascism by Benito Mussolini and Giovanni Gentile. Whilst you may disagree with the ideology itself, at least you will be able to critically discount or recorrect those who enjoy tossing the word at their opponents.

Never trust information without cross referencing it first with non bias reputable sources.
If you can, look for the first hand information those reputable sources have cited themselves.
Consider why this information has been presented to you what does the information provider seek to gain by giving you this information.
Emotional speeches are nice and all but they are opinion based theater, not fact.
Never blindly trust anyone even if they share your views.

I love how you can tell this is Donald Trump within the first 30 seconds.
He has been waging a war on truth since 2015,
and to wage a war on truth is to wage a war on knowledge, life, and reality itself.
_ And I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit of Truth will not be forgiven. _
_anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come. _

Honestly even without reading between the lines this video is about as Bauhaus as propaganda not aimed at children can get nowadays, It contains zero lies or falsehoods yet it only tells a select portion of the truth. This isn't to say it needs to tell all the truth all at once but for something trying to educate you it doesn't even mention what else there is to learn on the subject.

The way all of these happened to Irene of red velvet, haters literally did all of these things that's been mentioned in the video to spread disinformation so more people will hate on her and they can ruin her career. It's so sad how people with 0 braincell believe anything they see on the internet without looking for proofs, that's why humans sucks in general.

- spreading disinformation
- creating fake user accounts on fb
- delivering highly shareable, engaging and convincing visual content like memes favouring themselves
- False accusations on memebers of opposition political parties
Lmao. The same thing is happening in India right now.

I would like it better if this video ends with Stannis Quo not only losing the election, his tactics being backfired against him, and be the target of an angry riot, but also, Charlie Brown and Linus would tie up Quo to a log, and feed him to the Great Pumpkin.

Lmao, troll is such an overused term now. Literally ranges from anybody literally making a joke in the Internet, to a corrupt politician using illegal tactics apparently. Good perpetuation of now meaningless buzzwords I guess TED lol
