But day after day, I still learn new things that genuinely make me chuckle:
The purpose of this is to show you that you have to remember everything they taught you is a lie. American Renaissance has some of the best redpills I've ever seen. Jared Taylor is the world's best boomer- he'll show all the other boomers the light and bring them to our side. I strongly suggest reading the "Our Issues" section, especially their posts about History and First-Hand Accounts.
Michael Crichton actually named this: the Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect. In his words:
Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray [Gell-Mann]’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them.
In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.
