Being Told What To Think

[Theland]

It has started. Being to?d what to think.
Wjhat say you?

[andy-hughes]

It started way back in pre-history - when religion first became evident as a controlling mechanism.

Nothing has changed since then.

[Mamyalynne]

Your wife?

She's probably right you know.

[andy-hughes]

Mamya - // Your wife?

She's probably right you know. //

is that for me or Theland?

[gness]

Started, Theland? Come on. I grew up being told what to think by priests and nuns. Thankfully I came to my senses.

[Spicerack]

It's for our own good.

[Mamyalynne]

I didn't realise this was a religion based thread being in CB.

I'll leave you to it.

[Theland]

No no no no it is not a re?igiojs thread although re?igiojz may be apart. Am tal!omg about PC, D.I.E. and C.R.T. and ontersectooomaity and some ESS.

[woofgang]

"ontersectooomaity"
I don't know what this is but it sounds fascinating

[Theland]

Correct thinking. Attitudes. Being socially access
Table and WO!e.

[Mozz71]

I know this is derived from the whole taking the knee thing and the woke culture you so hate, but nobody thrives on telling people what to think than the believers of various religions do.

Alternatively, you can take the opinion that nobody is tell you what to think. They are merely telling you what they think. Anyone with independent thought can make up their own minds about things.

Who makes the rules that make people select
Who is to judge that your ways are correct
The media as watchdog is absolute ***
The TV telling you what to think


Written by some teenager in 1977

[Theland]

Roy that's very good and true.

[Mamyalynne]

I've been taught and told a lot of things in my life but I have always decided what to think for myself.

[Theland]

But now its hate speech

[Mamyalynne]

'It'?

What is?

[emmie]

nothing new Theland, aren;t we all told what to think when we are small, its as an adult that we learn surely to think for ourselves, to cut out the wheat from the chaff

[emmie]

don;t go on what you read in the paper or watch on TV, thinking for oneself is a good thing and will continue don't worry.
