We're heavily propagandized from birth. I realize that happens to greater or lesser degrees, around the world, but overworked, underpaid, tired, struggling for necessities, junk science with fake peer reviews and certain governments strongarming (to put it mildly) other governments. Cognitive dissonance waved away with professional terms. Overwhelm, in short. I only have the "luxury" of scratching the surface of my own enforced, propagandized ignorance because I'm chronically underemployed, my offspring is an adult, and other factors. Critical thinking isn't rewarded, often punished, and it's hard, especially when you've been deliberately misguided for decades, from birth.

I can't begin to imagine how exhausting it must be for you. I am grateful for your patience and gentleness with me as I struggle to remedy whatever is within my personal capacity to remedy, with the time and resources available to me, and would urge continued patience, for the few who may still be reached.
