Thinking by yourself is not enough. We have plenty of builtin bias, we carry a lot of (old and present) cultural baggage that condition what meaning we give to what we see

Critical and system thinking (there are plenty of great books on both) are useful tools there.

Don't tell me what to do or think. Thanks.

Thinking for myself, I'd rather not read this. I'm sure I can reach the same conclusions myself.

This reads like a long winded version of calling people sheeple.

The next article is a rant about how covid lockdowns are anti-freedom and everyone should stop listening to the experts and elites who rule us.

Scrolled down and saw "Crowd saluting Hitler and one person defying dictatorship standards and risking imprisonment — are you wearing a mask still?"

From his other posts, you'll find "Call me crazy, although I’d rather risk a very strong cold than a blood clot."

Oy.

People are being conditioned to think that their freedom is selfish.
