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?

    A lot of people don’t think. But a lot of people do think critically, and they just think differently from you or me.

    If we believe nobody thinks critically, how can we even begin to effect change?
