Of course more random education doesn't educate people specifically about influence and propaganda. Why would it?

- ThomPete 8y agoI don't think there is a specific education you can take that will shield you from influence or propaganda. In my experience, it's about something else. Something more fundamental.
- zzzcpan 8y agoCurrently it's part of political science / politology mixed with psychology. It could change your worldview so much that it would completely destroy any trust in governments, media, political systems. Which is actually a necessary first step in order to understand how these things work. I guess this is the fundamental thing you are talking about. Once you get there, you can start learning more in depth about these things. It's something for life. You will never be able to trust any government again.
- ThomPete 8y ago"You will never be able to trust any government again." which is itself prone to lead to you accepting misinformation. That's the point though. You can't escape these things.
