In times like this one, I think it is important to revisit the Allegory of the Cave [0][1]. Try to think about the cave as wherever you personally started your own education instead of broadening it to any given country. Once you have an idea of what that is and what that is not, imagine that that entire universe (cave, outside the cave, etc) itself being encompassed within yet another cave and world outside that cave. What if there is yet another cave and another world outside the cave wrapping this second one? And so on. Update: I guess another thing to think about would be what if someone in at one depth of the cave tried to take someone out from within what seems to them a deeper level of the cave? And the opposite, what if someone from the cave tried to reach out of the cave and bring someone they think is in what appears to be a cave to them to their own cave. Another update: The last link in the posted article is an interesting read in terms of the actions people take when they start thinking that they were inside a cave [2].
