Yeah, I know the feeling. It is nice on the rare occasions that we get to meet like minded people in real life ( even on a lemmy thread !) and have genuine conversations that don't feel like a chess match.

I myself worry that bringing up how some people have been or are being conditioned by advertising and the media of their choice is something they should even be made aware of. It is concerning but I don't think it is a process that can be reversed.

I enjoy reading a long reply personally and am guilty myself ! Dont give up. Carry on fellow traveler ✌️

So which are you? Can you not be saved, it's too late and can't be reversed, or you're just immune to the conditioning in the first place? ;)

It certainly can be reversed my friend, we're doing it right now. Thank you for the kind words and feel free to reach out anytime for any reason (assuming good faith discussion)
