Things I’ve learned in 3 score years +5
#44) To reiterate something I've said before . . . There is only one reason why people lie. They lie to manipulate you. They lie to get you to do what they want you to do because they know you wouldn't do what they want if they told you the truth.
#45) Trying, In my small attempt to get certain people out of the conservative echo chamber they get all of their news from.
If anyone; any news program, any newspaper, any journalist, any radio host, any politician, any demagogue of any sort, ever lies to you about anything, don't listen to them anymore. About anything.
If they have lied to you at all they have proven that they are willing to lie to you. You can't know when they're lying and when they are not. Therefore you can't trust them about anything. So do not listen to them.
If anyone has told you that the Sandy Hook massacre was a false flag operation, they have lied to you. Don't listen to them anymore. About anything.
If anyone in the last 20 years has been a climate change denier, they have lied to you. Don't listen to them. About anything.
If someone supported Stop the Steal, they have lied to you. Don't listen to them anymore. About anything.
Only listen to people who always tell you the truth.
