Convenient fictions

lol. i will leave it to you to figure that out

LOL! I already did.

Too bad that’s not their goal today.

Do you think that’s the government’s goal?

too bad indeed! furthest thing from it

Obviously not that either. Examples provided in the OP show that the government feeds misinformation to the media.

So if I can’t trust the media, and I can’t trust the government, who/what do I trust for information about anything that I do not have personal knowledge of?

Nope.

We are just chattel to those in power.

oh cool! show where! pls enlighten us

who did you figure out to trust? Samantha bee?

You consider yourself Donald Trump’s chattel?

That’s the whole question!

Someone choosing one or the other is just picking a one poison or another.

you said you had it figured out

sounds like you are in the process of doing so

keep asking that question

i have high hopes for you

lol. I will leave it to you to figure that out.

To some degree, yes. Not specifically Trump’s, but chattel of the government – no matter who is in power.

i already know. i just wanted to see your response

it as just as i expected.

Interesting. I appreciate the answer and perspective. I too consider myself a “subject,” but for reasons I suppose we’ll never fully understand, it does not bother me and I actually derive a sense of patriotism from it. But I understand that many feel the exact opposite, and while I don’t share the view, “get” it.

Keep thinkin’ on it, you’ll get there.

you obviously dont have an answer

but dont give up the quest

You’re right, I have no idea why you haven’t gotten there yet, but you will.

hehe mmkay play your word games.
