    I didn’t tell anybody to trust me. I’m telling you to question your own cult of authority. If you think the US is any different than any other cult, it’s because you’re brainwashed.

            False dichotomy. My alternative version of events comes from lack of trust in the government’s narrative.

              Yeah, sure dude. Then why do are you arguments ring of being a government actor?

              I don’t see any dichotomy here. You just work for the state.

                In hospice, we call what you’re going through the denial, bargaining, and anger stages of grief. The truth is, you have no logical way to counter my proposal.

                  That which is present with with lies needs no truth to dismiss. I trust my fellow citizens, not you.

                    Do you get a lot of input from your fellow citizens? Do they all pull from the same sources of information? Do they ever approach that information with a critical eye, or do they blindly defend what they think they know like you do?
