Maybe the first best step toward free thought and out of the propaganda trap would to accept that you "possess" a forgettery . Listen to the American philosopher Paul Simon sing, "When I think back to all the crap I learned in high school, it's a wonder I can think at all." Use your forgettery and forget the crap. Make haste slowly to question everything. Remember that the corporate media works hand in glove with the ruling elites on two levels of propaganda -- cultural and political, and it is necessary to understand how they are intertwined. Freedom is indivisible.

That's worth remembering.
