Brainwashing

Hey, does anyone else ever feel like most people are just, asleep? I talk to a lot of people and they all seem to have the exact same default “normie” opinions on everything. Very few of them actually form their own thoughts, they just repeat whatever they’ve been told their entire lives, it makes me wonder how badly the food we eat effects the brain. For example, my stepmom genuinely believes the sun is bad for you. Stuff like that. I know saying this can make me sound arrogant or narcissistic, like I think I’m better than everyone, but honestly it just makes me sad. It feels like I’m watching people walk around with blinders on. The other day at school I told a girl that broccoli isn’t healthy. She immediately pushed back, so I explained the goitrogens, oxalates, and how it can impaire thyroid function and mineral absorption, and cause mental retardation in kids. I’ve also told my mom the same thing because I have younger siblings. (Thanks Frost for knowledge.) It actually feels really good when someone listens and starts thinking about it. That’s why I’m considering making videos about this stuff, just to spread the awareness a bit more. What are your thoughts on all the modern brainwashing we’ve been fed? Especially around food, health, and “common knowledge” that doesn’t actually make sense when you look closer.
