“What most of them think they know is mainly propaganda which has been passed off as history.”
As the old saying goes, “They don’t know that they don’t know” but now it applies to more of them than ever and as time goes by it becomes more obvious to those who are no longer or have never been susceptible to this process of indoctrination. I’m one of those Baby Booomers who naively participated in the counterculture of the 1970’s but now I’m (for all intents and purposes) “all in” as a conscientious adult with a more certain kind of present day counterculture. It’s no wonder that to me and others like me, the big picture has been made to appear upside down AND backwards at the default level, while to others it represents a celebrated “New Normal”.

A very good description of the situation. I am actually a member of the so-called, “Silent Generation”, I was born five days before D-day, the baby boom began in 1946. I
have often said that it is like living on a different planet now when compared to my youth. Everything that was right is now wrong and vice versa. For those who grew up with Superman the shortest description of today is “Bizarro World”.
