That's true, yet it takes a lot of guts and discipline to keep your self concept strong, I gotta find my peace yet, although I'm on the way.
Btw. I can compare the "information control", since I live in the Eastern Block and my grandfather for example used to own a library full of books published during 1948 - 1989
It was exactly the same propaganda you get served today, just totally turned around, praising communism and trashing capitalism.
I've read for example about the CIA operations in Southern and central America, these days it's a huge no no.
Yet it's extremely obvious and only takes common sense that someone needed to make sure those countries wouldn't follow the Cuba route and wouldn't be able to grow powerful just by using their natural resources.
Every regime or ideology keeps its reign by controlling the information, it's understandable, and with these days informational idiocy and chaos they don't even have to try that hard.
All most people do is to quote "wikipedia" or something, there's absolutely no thought or effort in it, just citing bullshit and shouting loud, narcistic pricks that never put any effort into actual thinking.
That's also why I won't ever vouch for any regime or ideology, although I personally greatly endorse the ideology of the founding fathers, it's all about keeping the territory and having no remorse, there's no morals in nature.
That's how nature made us - we're animals, we need territory, humanity is just a standard in society, so those that don't have morals can control the others, morals and humanity only exist on a personal level, those are people that deserve praise, humanity or morals never existed on a sociopolitical level.
