OK Marketers - How Gullible Are You? A Test...



Quote from site:

The history taught to American children in public school is true and accurate.
FALSE. American history, as taught to American schoolchildren, is more a collection of lies and distortions than actual history. From Columbus to the Vietnam War, politically correct American history consistently paints Americans in a glorious light while ignoring shocking accounts of actual historical events. Read, "A People's History of the United States" by Howard Zinn to learn real, uncensored American history.

Us Canadians may be polite to a fault, but nobody craps on America like other Americans.
 
91/100. I suck.

Time to eat a handful of FDA approved medication and cleanse the world of my stupidity.

You fail the gullibility test if you believe half of the things that this quiz professes.

They are spreading their propaganda just as much as everyone else.
 
nevermind that it's accurate, mike really knocked it out of the park here.

You're a true free thinker and a person who is well informed about the reality in which you live. Although you may have been easily manipulated earlier in life, you eventually gained lucidity and developed a healthy sense of skepticism that you now automatically apply to your observations and experiences. You are endlessly curious about human behavior and the nature of the universe. You have cast off reality distortions taught to you by your parents, schooling, corporate advertising and government propaganda. You create your own beliefs based on what serves you best, without much regard for what the rest of the crowd is doing.

you've built a following with consistent and well-researched content made for generally more affluent 'natural' consumers.
you tap the market for all its worth -- from herbs to botanicals to colloidals to informationals.
and now you've got a bunch of polarizing issues wrapped in a well-worded (almost luntzian) questionnaire that reinforces belief and self worth.

dude knows how to work his audience.
gotta be killing it in health and wellness.

Ahahahaha what a fucking joke. They're promoting Zinn in this piece of shit?
 
Id say the test isn't 100% accurate and includes the opinion of the test maker.

A balanced diet of any food products is fine. Even refined sugar is fine as long as you balance it out. That's why its called balanced.(eating doughnuts and drinking soda all day isn't balanced)

The nuking of japan did save lives in the event of a ground invasion so that could go either way as well.

And of course the old ADHD debate. Where he chose the "there is no adhd" side.


those are the ones i missed for 88
 
Wow, this one is entirely biased, or at least worded in such a way that the answer is ambiguous and the explanation is weasel worded.

Things like "cure for cancer". Cancer isn't a disease, it's a mutation - ipso facto, it can't be "cured" without massively altering genetic structure (which usually results in more cancer), merely put into complete remission.
