I am middle aged. Was clearly taught a ton of BS at school and on TV. So the job now is to unlearn the BS, and relearn what really happened and is real. This is like being both in kindergarten and doing a PhD at the same time... all day, every day!

For some reason even when I was being "educated" in the 70s and 80s, I could hold two opposing views in my head. i.e. I know I have to learn this bullshit because that's what it takes to be qualified, BUT I also know that most of the "educators" are completely unaware of what is really going on in the world and so their point of view might be deficient.
It might have made me slightly arrogant, but it also made me acutely aware that I had to make every effort to search for the truth so I wasn't inadvertently backing the wrong team. This also gave me the frequent opportunity to remain open, i.e. suspend disbelief and consider other possibilities "just in case".
Facts are facts, irrespective of what I believe.
The TRICK is to discern fact from fiction.
BUT a dangerous world comes from acting upon fiction as if it is fact. And people become unhinged and dangerous defending these precarious houses of cards.
