When people ask "What's going on", they don't really mean it

[fan of the arts]

Most people want to have their own beliefs reinforced, not hear what is really going on. It's the no. 1 reason propaganda is so successful. On my local news tonight, a homeless guy was struck by a car that knocked him into another vehicle. That 2nd vehicle dragged the body 10 miles, yes ten miles, until it stopped at home. The driver was charged with manslaughter and released on 6G bond. The driver refused to believe a body was under their minivan, therefore felt fine dragging a person to their horrible death.

Denial is the most powerful force in all human's lives, especially America's population in this age of propaganda.

4. Actually

the use of a term like that arises from the reptilian brains instinct to "orient"
itself in new surroundings. Pure reflex. If other members of the herd don't
signal danger, you feel safe to graze or(attempt to)mate.

"Whats up?"
"Nada"
"I saw some cheerleaders down at the food court"
"Let's go"

Poor Humans!
Up from beasts but not yet gods
They are both but neither.
