Trump's "They're Eating Cats and Dogs" quote has become a meme. Would this help him get elected? I hope you can be impartial when responding to this question. Thank you

It will stop being a “meme” when enough reports of Haitians eating cats surface in the US, at which time it will be forgotten about. For two years the Hunter Biden laptop was an invention according to US media — and then it wasn’t. That was more about cognitive bias; they presented stories as to why it couldn’t have been real, and people bought them. People like neat packages that don’t require much thought.

Given that US people are generally offered only a single point of view by media; their tendency toward confirmation bias with any new information is often a given. For example, if you were to say to a person from Chile that Haitians are eating cats in Springfield, Ohio, they’d find it unsurprising as it happens there too. This, as it goes against the confirmation bias of the people in the US, is considered preposterous there. Trying to contradict confirmation bias will result in very negative, and often nasty responses.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.

The media, an arm of the US Democratic Party, uses biases to influence thought. It’s actually an effective strategy. People are very prone to cognitive bias and/or confirmation bias.
