    Big carbon lobbies politicians to dismantle education, yeah. You can’t say education doesn’t fix this when that’s the thing they’re paying to destroy.

    A quality education should include media literacy, also, which is what inoculates you against the kind of thought viruses that misinformation presents.

      The people who are doing the lobbying and dismantling have the best educations money can buy. This is a structural problem. It’s not going to be solved by everyone being as clever and conscientious as you are.

        Education is a structural problem.

        Do you want corporate lobbyists to have less power? That would be great.
