“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” ― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, year 1995
Solidifying a generations bamboozlement. Times get better. But not for the bamboozled. They blame those that weren’t bamboozled for their bamboozlement. If they’re lucky, their next generation will see through the lies. More than likely not due to indoctrination. Hopefully they turn out like anti nazi Germans. Stomping out any “hails dipshit” they here uttered.
