Sheeple don’t read! Too many folks today think they are gaining knowledge on their smart phone and a news app. This is not only a joke but an utter fantasy. They read one line of one story, feel they have researched enough and it must be true.

Sometimes, they don’t even know what website they were on. The website agreed with their own philosophy so why dig any further. The person has their news which most aligns with their “truth” and it’s time to move on to what Hollywood is doing or if the kitten has produced a new video.

Enough of this behavior. Read a book…darn it… read a book. Kick yourself in the posterior and realize you are missing out on the facts that are well-researched and documented. Do your own research on issues that interest you and read books with footnotes in them. The footnotes might lead you to factual studies and statements that contradict what you found on your smart phone or the obscure website you visited.

It’s time to stop allowing the false negatives and outright lies to contaminate your thoughts and your interaction with family, friends, and online posting. The truth is out there but the path is harder to find than the smart phone in your pocket.

The following list of books might surprise you with their depth of research and footnoting and might just open your eyes to a new reality.

Apocalypse Never, Michael Shellenberger

The Real Anthony Fauci, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Covid-19 and the Global Predators – We Are the Prey, Peter R Breggin md and Ginger Ross Breggin

Take your life back and quit being lulled into a sense of being. Read a book or if you don’t have time to do that, research more on reputable websites, like Just Facts.
