Why do Americans blindly believe in PROPAGANDA and refuse to objectively assess a situation?

Research seems to be a foreign word to many of Americans. You would think Google, Wikipedia, libraries and even encyclopedias never existed. I lived in Tennessee and there were some there who actually thought Mexico was the only Latin American country in the world. That was Nashville and the surrounding areas.

It's hard to think in geopolitical terms if Americans aren't even aware of other countries.

That's why Americans will believe any damn thing spoon fed to them. They can't even do the most basic of research and think for themselves. Or even ask an individual their origin.

You have not specified what kind of situation. Most situations should not be assessed in terms of geopolitics only. Why not assess them fully, in terms of many different things?

I dont believe what you post at all. America is the most open of all nations and always have been there is only one reason you know about wounded knee or the trail of tears as it was front page news for weeks there was a long and open enquiry but would bet the farm you know nothing of Jane McCrea or The Beavers wars or of the British Gen in America J Amherst Google them up you are in for a shock

And no other country falls for internal propaganda, and sees geopolitical issues in an objective manner...? Yeah, sure.

True. Unfortunately. Mostly brainless GOPers are affected

because Americans are not taught to think about anything beyond our borders

It beats thinking. Thinking is HARD!

Because, by gum, this IS AMERICA- where we have the freedom to not think.

Brrrrrrp.....!

All humans do that.
