When others try to influence in what you think.
When someone tells you to "Think for yourself,"
they’re telling someone not to
listen to uninformed people,
conspiracy theorists, con men and downright liars.

To “Think for Yourself” is to do your own research
so that you can form your own conclusions
with your own thoughts.
Not the thoughts of others who tell you what to think.

We have too many blind cult followers in this
country who can't "Think for Themselves."
Why they're so easily
led, fooled and suckered.

Listening to a perpetual conman who has no concern
for anyone but himself,
which is to separate others
from their hard earned money and self worth.

Once this happens you lose whoever you were
and are no longer a free thinking person.
You have now been brainwashed and indoctrinated
where truth and facts mean nothing.

For the few who realize this,
there is an escape but for the many,
they are so down the rabbit hole
there’s no coming back to reality.

After this happens the people can’t “Think for Themselves”
any longer but yet they know exactly what they're doing
and are being led by unscrupulous
people to do their bidding.

Yet are too blind to see they are
being suckered and conned
or they have the same morals
as the person they're trying to emulate.

THINK FOR YOURSELF
before it’s too late not to.
For one day it may be made illegal to.
AND AS A SOCIETY, WE WILL cease to EXIST as a Republic or a Democracy.
