Thanks Bambu.

Bronfman is trying to buy Paramount, he used to own Universal, and he owns Seagrams.

And there is a lot of power in owning a movie studio, just like a newspaper has power, etc.

One way to avoid being brainwashed is to know how brainwashing works, so when you see it happening then you know what is going on. And there used to be a lot of cults, and people who are educated can avoid falling into a cult. And also, an education can give people the tools to spot and avert a race riot, etc. And we can write all of those tools into movie and television scripts, and people can learn as they watch movies and television shows. And we can write it into our poetry, etc. People can also learn from history, so we can make movies and television shows about history. And even Shakespeare has lessons to teach. And if we can change how people think and feel, then we can change how they behave.

And with this new movie about Queen Farah Pahlavi, it can change the world, movies have a lot of power.

Salute,

Tony V.

Tony,
Brainwashing is allegedly *everywhere* today.
Schools/teachers in my world are being accused by some media outlets, and talkback radio callers.
From "climate change" to politics...the "Indigenous Voice To Parliament" referendum last year as but one example...kids coming home from school and telling their parents, grandparents to vote " Yes".

Anything kids and adults can learn to do to avoid being brainwashed is a very good idea.

In your case, a light rinse is sufficient.

Well, that is how truly stupid people react to learning other people do not share their point of view. But what they think of as brainwashing is usually people just getting additional knowledge and seeing additional points of views.

And of course truly atupid people like you never think of themselves as being brainwashed. They just go on line and regurgitate opinions and ideas from their number 1 radio host, and from "some media outlets, and to acknowledge radio callers".

LOL.
Commonsense seems not very common in the leftist world downunder.
Anyone wifh even a quarter of their brain working would know that schools/teachers should be keeping students in class and not taking or allowing them to go to climate protests worked up into a frenzy and crying in the streets because they believe there's no future.

Should be teaching kids the 3 'r's
. reading
. riting
. rithmetic
 and not politics and stupid "renewables only NOW" nonsense.

Maybe encouraging thought beyond the 3 rs would allow children to avoid growing up bitter, angry, reactionary and judgmental.

One little 12 year old girl was seen on tv news report from the protest sobbing uncontrollably, to the point of who knows what damage to her mind.

"More than 29.5% of NSW school students are now below the national average."
No great surprise.

That is a common sense reaction to the state of the world we are leaving her.

What is no great surprise is that you suck at math. Think about those numbers for a bit, because it looks like the NSW schools are doing GREAT.

How come Red never talks about Trump's support of Nick Fuentes?

So RedDick is it morally better to be taken in by a false claim of a crime, or to publicly call for the execution of innocent people? NYC counsel members Yusef Salaam wants to know.
