Let’s not forget the university/professorial environment, where fears and intimidations inherently play a large role.
I have several adult academically-employed acquaintances, even older than I, who can’t seem to shake the dependent, cocoon-like thinking fostered therein.

It is because we don’t have an “education” system. We have always had an indoctrination system since the Humanist/Communist John Dewey destroyed Classical Christian curricula in 1930. (Father of American “Education”—lol)
It is a “programming” system of dependency-—to embed dependency in all people put through the system of operant conditioning- (yes, like Pavlov’s dog) so that when people “graduate” from this programming system (using psychological warfare on minds of little children), they will be incapable of agency (thinking for themselves). They will only “believe” what is being broadcast from the MSM and if they ever hear the “Truth/God”, they will have cognitive dissonance to the degree that they will have to end all debate, etc. since they were programmed with lies all their lives so that Truth will offend and cause mental illness (literally).They were never taught the Socratic Method, the Aristotelian Logic, the beautiful Myths of Western Civilization-—it is all erased so they are ignorant and dumb for life.
Yuri Besmenov explained how the brainwashing /conditioning system works to destroy the integration of the brain in young children.
This is the intentional product of American “education”-—to destroy the mental ability of children to think for themselves.
Fichte stated in 1810 and it developed the Prussian system of indoctrination which we brought over to “America” by the evil Marxists/communists/sodomites (Fabian Socialists) . “Social” studies and peer pressure is their main system of destroying the love of true History, Truth/God, facts, etc., for “feelings”. Only Feelings rule people who graduate.....Reason is non-existent. They are conditioned to feel hate for God, Christianity, White heterosexual males, etc.
“Education should aim at destroying free will so that after pupils are thus schooled they will be incapable throughout the rest of their lives of thinking or acting otherwise than as their school masters would have wished ... The social psychologist of the future will have a number of classes of school children on whom they will try different methods of producing an unshakable conviction that snow is black. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for more than one generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen.
We need PARENTS (male/female) to RAISE their OWN children and to allow them a NATURAL REALITY so they will never be susceptible and warped by irrationality where Up is Down and Boys are Girls, etc.
The Age of Reason and Modern Science and the Constitution was ONLY created by the Classical Chrisitan “thinkers”-—people with a Christian Worldview in childhood are only capable of Free Will and Individualism—thinking outside the State’s Box.
