FREEDOM

That word. Many people love it in the USA. But I don't think they use it correctly.

Inconceivable.

They don't know what it means. I have a friend who would boast about how free America is (they are 2nd generation). It's taken over half a decade of me providing information that states otherwise. I think it's finally starting to settle in with them. Sadly, the propaganda runs deep and it can take a long time for someone to break free of thought control.

Brainwashed. I forget the video I saw on YouTube that went all into the details of this mentality but it was quite eye opening.
