I'm constantly trying to convince somebody, usually a family member, that they need to turn off the television completely, especially the "news", and that it's only there specifically to brainwash them and manufacture consent in their minds.
This process is frustrating and seemingly futile, especially if they are over 40 years old. It's like trying to convince somebody that they are addicted to drugs; they are 100% sure that you are wrong, and they are also 100% sure that they are in control of the experience. It is endlessly frustrating.
Without being able to convince somebody to stop watching "news" it's impossible to ever convince them that they are being scammed continuously, e.g., pertaining COVID-19, etc. You could send them a fucking video of the entire government eating orphaned babies and then laughing while chanting "we want to kill everybody with poisonous vaccines and we worship Satan", and all it would take is one hour of television "news" to reset them back to their normal state.
You just speak your mind and share information (with words) while watching the news with them. Low and behold, slowly over time, 'conspiracy theories' that you've been stating that were scoffed at, slowly get admitted or alluded to by the MSM, and you get to have your little 'well, would you look at that, they're finally catching up' (instead of i told you so)
