The questions is also, why should anyone listen to what Peter Thiel thinks? Because he made money with Paypal and is now a VC? As if that somehow means he is more qualified than your post man in terms of political views.
If people get really brainwashed by having higher education or spending more time in college maybe there is something wrong with the education system, but maybe (just maybe) being brainwashed is just a try to smear everyone with a different opinion.
- fit2rule 8y agoMaybe the brainwashing that is doing the most damage, is the ideation around, and elevation of, idols and figureheads. We can't seem to do anything in society unless an authority tells us its okay - or worse, not okay - to do it. This is both a blessing and a curse - sometimes we need figures to rally around. Other times, not so much. So mostly I think the most damaging brainwashing going on is that of cult figureheads being elevated beyond their station. We see this everywhere - not just Silicon Valley. Literally, everywhere. Upvote me if you agree! /s
