    I think part of growing up in western media and feeling the decline of it, part of it is certainly seeing ongoing erosion of norms and positive institutions, but a good amount of it is also from disillusionment and learning more about how things have always been, just less apparent. The perceived reality of the western world is much more compromised and complex than when you’re a kid, doesn’t mean the truly good parts aren’t good.

      100%. A big party of growing up and taking responsibility is recognising and unlearning the propaganda you were subjected to as a child, if that’s even possible.
