Imagine if you will

My favourite saying when people say 'you drank the Kool-Aid of XYZ...' is simple...

We all drink the Kool-Aid, every single one of us. The only difference is what flavour it is.

Every single person is influenced in one way or another, but we just like to think that we're special and that we are 'independent thinkers'. We're not. We're all influenced in one way or another. But we like to sound smart to make ourselves feel better.

I have lots of friends that are 'oh you so silly MP because XYZ, and this is better'.

It's not better / worse. It just doesn't align with what they feel at this point in time.

Lots of Trump supporters that I knew have gone awfully quiet over the last few months as they see how the US is falling at an alarming pace.
 
Great thread and good read. The type of conversation I would have with friends over a beer.

If I had to be the guy that throws cold water on something...critically thinking of course...I would not have put the thread in the Politics Paddock as it would seem to lead that it is politically motivated when over all it seems to be a very open discussion that would cover a much larger spectrum.
I feel there is a political reason behind the topic of this thread.

Otherwise, @ToSlow can this be applied to animals? If so you kinda described the life of a dog. They seem pretty happy beings.

Not political, but please feel free to post thoughts

I was not gonna post it in this topic but felt it would have gotten moved here at some point
 
I should have used AI the rewrite my last comment. It's long, choppy, and likely difficult to follow. lol
I'm not saying it is or isn't. But I find for myself my thoughts are faster than my fingers, so I'll take any organizational help I can get.
