It's the same with cooking; my mother taught me to make the most flaky delicious pie crust using lard for the shortning. Then along came Crisco and then "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" and these simps wonder why everything tastes like cardboard. It's advertising persuasion and conditioning and the prog/left has done a bang-up job of it these past 75 years. Now we are paying the price of not paying attention but grabbing on to the last shiney bauble pushed in our faces by the mind control machine in the center of our living room. Hell, we even helped when we went out and bought a 64" variety and planted it smack on our wall so we could better inculcate the messages. And we wonder why? Pay attention!

All my great grandmother’s baking recipes have lard. They didn’t have Fake fat Crisco yet.

Superior results. I still use lard instead of Crisco.

Yes! I'm sure the lard police will be on our backs soon. Peta, vegans, cardiologists etc. We non-conformists must stick together. And, by the way, Crisco is the most tasteless use of calories ever invented.

And it’s expensive, so you get to pay extra for that lack of body and flavor. 😂

Yes, we are double and triple snookered all the time and we feel virtuous about it because we have been well trained!

I never watched Jersey Shore or any of it's spin-offs. Matter of fact I've never been fond of the whole Reality TV genre with the exception of Duck Dynasty and Naked and Afraid, but I only watched a few episodes of each. If Snooki was speaking at my school that would be a great excuse to do just about anything else including studying.

I've watched Jersey Shore a few xs. Living in Ohio, every time I said I was from NJ someone would reference it. I wanted to see what they were talking about & the "accent."

I so dislike this show & wouldn't pay go to see Snooki or any of the imo, pieces of Benny trash that dirty NJ's shore. They aren't NJ people. I wouldn't go if it was free & they were giving $100 to those in the audience.

Right before Lent I pretty much turned off my TV. Saint Padre Pio was against TV and as I've gotten older especially these last 15 years or so, I understand why....there's enough crud that is accessible via phones & computers.

So sad that these imo "trashy influencers" are influencing our children instead of parents, grandparents, etc.

I watch a lot of Amazon and Netflix. Not documentary or true stuff. I like me a hood super hero series or movie, supernatural (but not horror), action/adventure or political intrigue FICTION. More and more the fiction is being laced with climate change and socialism being portrayed as true and great ideals and non-believers as the enemy. They are brainwashing the masses with every weapon they have.

Yes! Once you're aware you recognize it more quickly.

I haven't really watched anything too much these last couple weeks. I was watching the old "FAMILY" TV series on YouTube. I watched a few of Marina Coates on YouTube doing the set design stuff.

The indoctrination was much more subtle in the 70s and 80s but it was there.

Today I had the tv on longer. I put BATMAN the cartoon on at 9 once in awhile...my husband and I laugh about it bc he is older than me & as a kid he watched this...he and his older brother (who died suddenly in 2020..was a semi famous local artist. PBS did a profile several months ago) - when they were little used to play "BATMAN AND ROBIN" & got caught by a neighbor as they were hanging out of the upstairs window, trying to climb down the side of the house. It's a way for him to remember & laugh about the plots etc...I will "go up on WALTON'S MOUNTAIN" when I'm missing my parents...or will search old episodes of ATWT or GL if I'm thinking about my Grandmother. ..weird, I know

Not weird at all. If something gives you comfort and happy memories then get all you can of it 😊

Another Nobel prize winner is galloping around Australia now, making probably hundreds of thousands more. He must have worn out all his American fanss with his loathsome tripe.
