    it’s the result of generations long grooming fostered by our ruling class and the only way to break it (i’m guessing) is to keep providing sources that contradict it repeatedly so that the person will change their own mind once their own life is negatively impacted by the propaganda like mine was.

      True for now that is the best method until reeducation facilities can be built worldwide for the most entrenched cases.

        american culture won’t lend itself to that and never will.

        the grooming i referenced earlier was enabled by encouraging people to reach their own conclusions sourced from ignorance and misinformation; so it feels to each one that they’ve reasoned it out themselves and any direct/managed effort to the contrary will be received as a “big brother” overreach.
