It's a strange human condition - people think they're smarter than they really are. So when new info comes at them, they get defensive. Or they get into a pissing contest because they want to "right." "You can lead a horse to water..." The best way to deal with this people, is to flip the conversation. Instead of you trying to convince them, try to get them to convince you of their opinion. When they say stupid stuff, ask them to clarify, or ask questions that will get them to flush out the truth on their own. Their ego will be spared, they might even go do more research and learn something new. And perhaps, one day, they might even come to you to discuss "waking up" conversations. [/quote] good tips, thanks. Do people that ignore it really have an excuse to do so anymore? [/quote] Good question. On one hand, the entire environment is created to dumb people down. Humans are technically animals. And animals are easy to train, but hard to break of old patterns and beliefs. On the other hand, they have a brain and free will. They should be able to figure out that free will Ives them the right to make decisions for themselves AND think for themselves. It's a conundrum [/quote]

If you are not awake by now... Is it too late? As in somewhat awake i.e. not obsessed with one of the two in the two party political system...
Do you write off clueless sheeple?
Is it possible for believers to be unaware of things beyond the nightly news??
