Maybe? I’ve seen people eagerly decry RT for being state owned and then laud the BBC (which is the state sponsored outlet who told them RT is evil because it’s state sponsored) and not recognize what little sense it makes.

Yep. I have had this conversation with many people, including my parents, wife, best friends, etc.

The amount of people who are so programmed that they just can't interface with the obvious truth that the BBC the UK's version of RT, or PressTV, is truly depressing.

If it's state media run by an allied nation, they're fine with it. If it's state media owned by a hostile nation, they say 'Don't listen to that, that's, tha't s _____'s state propaganda outlet.'

CBC? NPR? NHK? All fine.

State media is fine if it's from our side of WW3!

They never question how they came to this conclusion that perfectly lines up with their government's defense pacts. If you try to get them to question it, they think you're a whackjob.

People are fucking braindead. They don't think for themselves whatsoever.

I would argue that most of the people you see around you every day aren't actually human beings, from a philosophical point of view.

They don't think. They don't have an inner monologue. They are just a bag of conditioned responses. Gullible, easily manipulated, low IQ drones that simply exist to serve the hive. They are real life NPCs, with pre-programmed answers to any query you ask of them. You see it every day. People who change their twitter/facebook picture from the black square, to the tranny flag, to the Ukraine flag, and again to whatever current thing is required. They even put it on their lawns or their cars to make sure everyone else in the hive knows they are following along.

Rarely do I come across someone in real life who is able to look at a set of information and come to a conclusion different that what the state/hive has deemed to be true.
