The Manchurian Candidate
Who would have guessed it would end up being our Media and Academia. Life is stranger than fiction.

Is that it then?, you write a piece of nonsense without explaining what the hell you're talking about, does anyone else know who or what he's talking about because I don't.
The Manchurian Candidate A book and a film, apart from it being a work of fiction I know nothing else about it, are you saying differently? and can you prove it?, if so can you enlighten me and the forum on your superior insider knowledge, if not bugger off and go back to sleep.

Even I was confused. so I made some research on this Subject Manchurian Candidate
Found following What does it mean to call someone a Manchurian Candidate? "a person who is not loyal to, or who harms, their own country or political party because they are under the control or influence of another country or party: Some bloggers hint that a presidential candidate might be a kind of Manchurian candidate." Even when I have read about this Manchurian Candidate I'm still confused. Markus

When academia chooses to *not* follow scientific methods, when they choose to kowtow to move of leftist activists; when the media reports from a biased position or colludes with academia and government to further a specific narrative that may very well *not* be the truth, then academia and the media are no longer to be trusted. |

I know exactly what he's talking about and it's not at all nonsense.

Smells like political BS and would be better off in one of the political BS threads
