    I think there is a big difference between critically thinking and propaganda. When you are young you are susceptible to all sorts of ideas.

      Young or old, propaganda works on those of all ages; building up our critical thinking skills should be the goal for everyone.

      Just looking at the current political tribalism, it is at an all-time high again.

      Owner-class media (Main Stream Media or Legacy Media) trust is at an all-time low, while independent journalists are increasing their grassroots support.
