How do we get the public to be less gullible - and quit believing that Russia needs be the enemy?

How do we change the narrative?

How do we take charge of the narrative.

The obvious answer is to speak openly, publicly, about it as you are doing.

Let's also start talking about what we do next.

In other words, after acknowledgement of the wrong, let's talk about developing the plan to make it right.

All good questions to ponder, Cotton. And me thinks a big part of it is, maybe (just sayin'), to KEEP asking those good questions, starting with our immediately family, friends, and colleagues.

i.e.,

> In ref to geopolitics, what source do you use to base your beliefs?

> You probably realize you don't much control, individually, over what the world's broker and beaurcrats decide to do... but, are you willing to take away less time from NetFlix and more put more time toward learning world history, current affairs, and solution you CAN emply to positively affect your life, lifestyle, and ability to mainstream privacy and freedoms?

Have not watched TV news for years; cannot remember when I last did. Info sources are online reading, substacks, etc.

What I wish was in the works is an organized effort to radically change who is in control. Hard to have hope, tho. Not at all sure anything can be done short of outright revolution or secession from the feds.

Hear! Hear!

ThankYou for writing this. I shudder to think what's in their brewing pot.

The US is grotesque in its example of how NOT to be: bullying, lying, stealing, threatening, warring, spiting, killing, sanctioning...Yuck infinitum. That's just on the *worldly* side. Domestically, there's just as long a list of atrocious crimes in the name of "we're here to help."

How do we get control?
