    Just saying it in case any one needs to hear it. Even if you practice perfect mindfulness, always cognitive of what you’re thinking and the sources of your thoughts, eliminate all extraneous sources of influence from your life, you’re still not immune to propaganda. Your behavior can still be modified by what you see and consume.

    This isn’t for people who are mindful of how they’re influenced. This is for people who are autistic, see this meme, and assume it means they’re immune. Cause you’re not, we’re actually an at-risk group overall for manipulation. Just blatant, loud advertising tends to not work the same on us as it does on allistic individuals.

      Reading this part again so it sticks.
