It has to do with media accessibility. Almost every USA household has more than 1 television and almost 40% have cable. We spend many hours per week watching tv than outside.
Politicians figured this out a long time ago and target us even in shows we don't realize are political.
Bottom line is this easy vast access to our livingrooms = our brains has turned us into blindless robots following propaganda machines in the form of a small electronic box sitting in our bedrooms, kitchens and livingrooms.

Americans are very different from the rest of the world and they often are not shown the truth about things of importance. i dont know what is wrong with americans,they are not like us, we often question what we are told. Americans also get involved in too many things that have nothing to do with them.that is why their is so much hatred toward the US. i cant say that all americans would belive everything they hear but for most i think they do perhaps they are just stupid???

Because we are a media driven society and the media in this country has gotten away from factual, unbiased reporting of what is really taking place in the world and now only reports what it wants us to know to make a better story and to manipulate people.

When we watch too much TV our intellect stops being creative. WE are not able to distinguish between right or wrong.
A lot of the world is like that.
We think too much but most of it is negative, wasteful and vicious.

Because you have no mind to think for yourself.....you allow you self to be brain washed by your liberal college professors, and you let those liberals tell you it is OK for them to tell you that socialism is OK...when socialism is the very same thing as communism.

An individual is smart, a crowd is stupid. People can be sheep.
