Even analyzed the neurological impacts of atrophy of my brain. You used big words like dopamine and Neuro transmitter and that's very very impressive. But they confuse me since I'm not very smart. Atrophy, you know.
I did get the caveman in cavewoman reference, but I'm not sure how they apply.
Two different ways I am addicted. I never knew that, thanks for enlightening me. Confirmation bias, and wanting to be enraged.
It is a sad but fascinating fact that I wasted inordinate amount of time watching the news, collecting data, comparing opinions, and all the while I think I'm formulating my own judgments and opinions. But as you suggest, I'm not "Learning" which is obvious since I disagree with you.
People who "learn" or who have just understood naturally agree with you. People who, as I said, gather information from various sources and watch firsthand events as they unfold are just pawns of the media, who just want eyeballs.
Watching an uncut, unedited, unvarnished committee hearing on Capitol Hill means I am somehow the subject of manipulation even when there is no commentary, no editorial and no opinion generated by anyone during the hearing.
I guess it's like natural rights. They're not written down, but you just know what they are. You don't need to see them, discuss them, debate them, or dare I say "Learn" from anyone who disagrees. You just know stuff.
Your opinion has been formed and formulated long ago that is not subject to change regardless of the facts. So there is no need to "watch the news".That is what you think is wisdom.
And by the way, it doesn't matter if you watch NPR , MSNBC, CNN, or any of the networks. As they did with the state of the union address, they will communicate, collaborate and collude to put out THE CORRECT interpretation of all of the events. You save yourself a lot of time by just going to any one source.
You and your little friends have learned enough in your lives. Now it's time to just mock everyone who disagrees with you.
