Thanks, and you are very much on point here. The worst part is that propaganda is so pervasive that most people don’t even recognize it. There’s an anchoring effect at play here as well where people naturally assume that the society they grew up in is the natural default. Any deviation from that is seen as being extreme as a result.
You’re welcome? I haven’t done anything but share a limited perspective, and I’m happy you appreciated it.

That even happens from household to household, in the same neighborhood.
For sure, people internalize the dominant narrative and then everybody just repeats it to each other without really thinking about it. At the end of the day, most people want to fit in and they subconsciously adjust their views to match those of others around them.
