          Propaganda works.

          We’ve been saying it since the 70s at least. It’s a giant conspiracy by - media corporations - to not reveal how powerful media corporations are.

          Not a secret conspiracy mind you - anyone can see it quite plainly - but it will never be spoken of, at least, on popular corporate media. Not in any useful way. Why they would lose money if they did that.

          Theres a reason republicans always want to defund education. Theres a reason why there is a correlation between red states and blue states and their test scores. Theres a reason why universities/higher education has been branded “liberal brainwashing.”

          Theyve been attacking education so that people can stay ignorant to their true motives
