I don’t know about y’all, but if I grew up in a country that never has the news criticizing its leaders, I’d be very skepical and deduce that there is censorshop going on and the offical news could be exaggerated or entirely falsified. Do people in authoritarian countries actually just eat the propaganda? To what extent do they believe the propaganda?

      sorry for belaboring the point but

      That’s probably due to propaganda

      You should check out some ideologies. You probably realize, but there’s way more than red vs blue. You kind of sound like an anarchist. You don’t necessarily have to give yourself a strict label, but it’s a good idea to see what they’re about. That’s why I say political leanings, because it’s possible to find ideas you latch onto that don’t all fit neatly into one camp. Or don’t and just continue to do the actions you feel led to.

      And thank you for being receptive
