Here here!

The counter is to realize that our common humanity trumps our differences due to race or culture. That the majority of human beings do not wish ill upon each other.

Unfortunately, individuals are having a hard time with critical thinking and questioning their own world view as it is dictated to them by what they think are authoritative sources - AKA main stream media, main stream science from organizations such as the WHO and CDC, and government.

It is highly important to think for yourself now, do your own research and come to your own conclusions.

Agreed, the media is a pied piper (5 companies owning 95% all US media) trying to culturally engineer divides so that those in power can remain in power over the coming decades. And those in power are paying the media to do this, I would bet anything.

We can't out-bid the billionaires, and our government isn't going to keep the media in check because it's also owned by those same billionaires.

So the only solution that remains is that we have to collectively stop falling for the bullshit, and to help each other not fall for the bullshit.

Social media is being used to shame those who think critically and question things. Most people just want to fit in and that is leading to people to blindly following whatever the next woke thing.

It's so hard to do real research because it's basically impossible to know what is being pushed for an agenda.
