That assessment I agree with.
Apparently it’s true for a vast majority of westerners and the more true the less educated they are.
But hey, isn’t that a general problem? I mean the ability to manipulate people easier the less they’re educated?
Sure but we need to keep in mind how the most educated are managed via universities, publishing houses + magazines (yes those still exist especially the most high-falutin’ of them) etcetera, and generally controlling the information they have to work with in the first place. It’s the apartheid hoarding of education in the US that ensures even the highly-placed are ignorant where it counts, and the most prideful people imaginable.
Just to bring things full circle with the stuff about Iran’s unexpected growth of industrial capacity, I will add that it’s this very system of censorship and financialization of intellectual life that hobbles not only US ability to improve its indst. cap. but makes it blind to improvements other countries are putting in place that would unseat their established economic order. Which is why they can’t keep up with Russia, let alone Iran anymore (lol meant the other way around but it’s a funny slip and on-brand so who cares). Yes I know that’s trailing off from our discussion but people must learn of the #geniuswomen strategy
