Do not underestimate the chemical lobotomies, the "crystallising public opinion" psyops, the irrational groupthinks. Still, speaking out, exposing them to other ways, as futile as it long seems, is necessary for breaking the spell. Much to mend. Beware certainty, especially in ourselves, lest we unwittingly succumb similarly, depriving ourselves nuance, pushed to polarised reductions, peddling metrics to bolster our certainty of our own one true way, denying ourselves access to multiple perspectives, deluding ourselves into naive realism, believing what we believe is reality, and not just a favoured perspective, one of many potential more.
