Paranoia in America real, imagined, taught or genetic?

Tweet

It is easy to change the popular opinion in America as long as you can expose people at young age to the idea you want to implant. I have noticed a new trend in video games that seems to have to do with not trusting the government or military leaders. Is it just a sign of our times or is this a deliberate act to bring down the Untied States by planting the idea that will develop in young minds. Being a paranoid person myself I always try and look at things like a game of chess and wonder where the real offensive is coming from. I have also read that you shouldn't teach your children chess at a young age because it instills paranoia, I learned at age 4-5 ...LOL Every day now on the news you hear words thrown around like new world order or the Illuminati. Is there a deliberate act to try and undermine our government by news organizations? Don't get me wrong I am far from the person who will blindly follow anyone who waves a flag but maybe there are forces at work here that are not in the open and the whole intent is to get the common people to revolt against the government. There are after all a lot of similarities between the US and former soviet union. As a nation we are more than just the daring explorers of other nations who left our homelands and came here we are also the descendants of those who were so afraid of their own homelands they gave up everything and came here. As a people we have to be the most paranoid (genetically speaking) of the entire planet. It kind of makes you wonder how we grew into the nation we are today without falling apart. There is one thing we are definitely more paranoid about than our own government and that is outsiders. I guess that is what has held us together as long as we have.
