"People that are in power seeking a specific outcome want to shut debate down. They do this because power steps into the void when reason no longer exists and gets to define reality for you from up above. ... When everything is taken from you, the truth is the only thing you have left. ... and information becomes your most powerful weapon."

many religions can do that. that is why your MIND is the most precioous item you have and thinking your most useful skill. perhaps the endless entertainment of all sorts is designed to numb the brain and let it become sluggish, out of shape? Get your mind in shape and let go of useless entertainment such as football, soap opera, fashion shows... Things are getting serious so you and I need to be serious.
Amen. Those are words to live by.
