### University of Arkansas, Sociology Quiz, Political Brainwashing

- **Episode:** [902: Morally Obtuse](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/902-morally-obtuse.md)

A student at the University of Arkansas shared a sociology quiz that the hosts characterize as political brainwashing. The quiz questions required students to identify the "core American value" at the heart of the immigration ban conflict as "religious freedom" and the societal conflict as "real vs. ideal culture." The hosts argue these are subjective political interpretations rather than objective sociological facts.

### Trump Muslim Ban, Nuance in Official Statements

- **Episode:** [780: Dustbin of History](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/780-dustbin-of-history.md)
- **Published:** 2015-12-10
- **Time:** 9:46–12:03
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/780-dustbin-of-history/chapter/trump-muslim-ban-nuance-in-official-statements.md

The specific wording of Donald Trump's official statement regarding a "total and complete shutdown" of Muslims entering the U.S. is examined. The analysis suggests that media reporting often omits the conditional phrase "until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on." This omission is characterized as a deliberate attempt by the press to remove nuance from the policy proposal.
