I agree with that, but what has changed there.

Back in the 50s and 60s our populace knew broad strokes, but they weren’t privy to all the information we have today.

They did have the lessons of WWII behind them. Still there was the Korean and Vietnam wars.

The has always been a segment of the populace that went uninformed.

That it what makes the situation especially absurd. People today have relatively easy access to a tremendous amount of information on the internet and elsewhere. Yet they STILL basically know squat and/or care about what's going on. I blame this mainly on screwed up personal values, lack of imagination/creative intelligence/awareness (stupidity), and a totally biased left-wing dominated snooze media, plus the many other influences of our liberal/leftist-dominated culture: "education" (indoctrination), TV, film, music, magazines, newspapers, etc, etc.
