Way of life everywhere. But how to control it? Brexit happened, for example, because the media gullibled half the population. "70 million Turks are about to move into the UK if you don't vote Brexit." "Save £350 million a week by voting Brexit." No critical faculty, any of them.. Far better critical faculties than the losers, who couldn't see through the Establishment's massively-resourced Project Fear and threats of Brexigeddon.

What, the boss of Airbus UK? I'd imagine he knew a tiny bit more about it than you.
As an aside, when are you ever going to engage beyond insult and mindless twaddle in this newsroom? Seriously. I don't know whether it's the fact you operate from an awkwardly small mobile and it's therefore a bit of an inconvenience to use or whether you're just an oaf. I need to know!

Har har. He never left America during his service. "Phillips served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 20 May 1972 to 5 May 1976. He has described himself as at various times as a Vietnam Vet as seen from a recent video, "I'm a Vietnam Vet. I served in Marine Corps 72 to 76. I got discharged May 5, 1976. I got honorable discharge and one of the boxes shows peacetime or, what my box says is that I was **in theater**. I don't talk much about my Vietnam times." [8] and also a Vietnam era veteran,[9][10]. He also referred to himself as a "Marine Corps infantryman in the '70s."[11]" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Phillips_(activist)

Oh, no question that the Hebrew Israelites are at least as obnoxious as the MAGA plonkers. And they don’t even have the excuse of being 14 and having catholic teachers dragging them on a March for Life.

"You know the left has really changed in this country when you find its denizens glorifying America’s role in the Vietnam War and lionizing the social attitudes of the corporate monolith Procter & Gamble." Beautiful. And, no, most of the left won't read this. And if they do, they will reject it and cling to THE NARRATIVE. What a weird statement. Are lefties duty bound to disagree with a social attitude if they don’t like the person / corporate entity expressing it? What a moronic statement.

I've just finished the article mids - thanks. (all of the article!)
It is excellent - and actually a bit scary - in that it is now extremely difficult to know if what one is reading is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
It's probably always been like that - but with social media the "lies get around the world while the truth is still getting it's boots on"
and what's really scary is how many people grabbed the wrong end of the stick and ran off in the wrong direction because it fitted nicely with their "narrative."

That is scary but what's also scary is that there are people who just don't care about what actually happened. They see a white child in a MAGA hat, he's the enemy so they want him physically attacked. Trying to reason with them seems like a waste of time because they're not interested.
