The truth is for sale,

The man said to me

The experts are lying,

It’s conspiracy.

 

There’s reason to fear

all the things scholars hide

so do your own research

to stop life’s backslide

 

Your life could be better

Just follow your gut.

Discover the why, and

discover the what.

 

To do your own research

Just watch on TV,

When something big scares you,

Then chat GPT

 

Spokespeople will tell you,

It’s nuanced, it’s gray,

But all common sense

can be learned in a day.

 

Thus, do your own research

Prove experts all wrong

They don’t care about truth,

They just string you along.

If you can’t get started,

I’ll help you, it’s fine.

With my monthly subscription

for twelve ninety-nine.

 

You will justify reasons

that facts match your fears

and then do your own research

to gum up the gears

 

You can choose revolution

or silent dissent

To help compromises

Fall like hard cement

 

You’ll then level up

to the influence stage

and do your own research

to harness the rage

 

Scour the socials

and podcast the news

to ignore what’s apparent

for futures you choose.

 

You can make millions

in twisting scared minds

as they learn from your research

and leave truth behind

 

Emotion and profit

Will win over facts

If you want to join in,

Then you simply must ask

 

You can monetize anger

and profit from pain.

When they buy all your research,

you’ve only to gain.

 

Sign onto my downline

My first month kit’s free-

and get welcome relief

from all reality.

 

The truth is for sale,

so join in the fun

to do your own research

and fool everyone.
