Herd Immunity

[Thryleon]

It really is amazing how there will always be those that are easily led up the garden path. Religion are the masters of it, but the Media and politicians have caught up. That’ll never change. What is interesting is the role of the media and the revenues generated from emotive “journalism”. The quality of long form content is stuffed. That’s why I like listening to long podcasts with interesting guests. Can be quite insightful. Plus you can stuff around the house or garden while listening.

I liked this quote, credited to Denzel Washington (unless he nicked it from someone)

“If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed, if you do read it, you're misinformed."

Minor correction.

Religion is used as a tool by the politicians as is the media.

Not the other way around.

Indoctrination happens via propaganda.

Religion was used by rulers to subjugate often.  Yet its those who actually find comfort in it, who are always questioned.  Why?

Because its easier to attack one person's belief than it is to highlight that the belief isnt the issue, nor is the Religion but the way in which it is implemented to the masses.

i.e. forced conversion.


Anyway, this could be a topic of its own.
