DEAR EDITOR:

How do you send a letter these days anonymously? The best way is by snail mail to a major paper, however they generally do not publish anonymous letters. Prejudice exists because people want to “know the source” to judge if it is creditable. The merits of the argument are not considered until those in control know who wrote it so they can “judge” if it is worthy. Bringing into question their own motives, intelligence and mentality.

This is why known “facts” are no longer accepted unless they know who is stating the facts in the first place. Thinking is being thrown away for the convenience of believing. We no longer have to really think, just accept certain publications as being the truth while others are discarded. Also, why seeing children being murdered and genocide being committed your own eyes see, gets smeared into some kind of false justice.

There is so much in the public “domain” about Trump and his crimes that even people who witnessed them question their own understanding of truth. They choose who to believe instead of thinking for themselves all with the help of the media who “profit” monetarily and socially from being the ones to believe for this or that group of people.

It is really hard to find truly honest media, these days, because everyone depends on money to just survive these days. No one wants to bite the hand that feeds them, which is really the way to understand how selfish people have become, these days, in America. Money is what feeds people today, which has become really sad for all of us. Money doesn’t work, people work. Put a $20 bill on a toilet and see if it cleans the toilet. Everyone is looking to do just “one” thing in life to make life so you do not have to think about anything else.

Just believe in your religion and what the leaders tell you to believe and think. You simply can’t understand it because you are not capable to understand. We will do the understanding for you.

Science is like that as well because “science” is really just people who have their own way of thinking. Rules to follow that are really not much different from religions. People of Science decide what is acceptable. Science believes it is never wrong even when proven wrong. Same as religions.

Pluto’s a planet, now it is not. When it was a planet science was right; now science is right when it says is not a planet. Science says Pluto is a “dwarf planet.” Dwarfs don’t count as real planets the same as dwarf people don’t count as being real people?
