7. we've passed "through the looking glass" in so many ways
in the past 4 years that I think most people are numb to reality.

They are at a weird stage of brainwashing in which they believe what they see on TV, even when their own eyes or experience confirm the opposite is true in "reality."

Soon, the dogma will so supplant any kind of experience that they won't require the TV to tell them what is "true," they'll just chant slogans. TV then will be "1984 TV," merely reinforcing the slogans, with "news" made up of whole cloth designed not to mislead or slant the truth about some actual event, but to create a purely fictional alternate reality.
