    I think it’s important to remember as you walk around the street that at least 80% of people have not the slightest idea that any of this is even happening. For them, it’s just a normal day, and everything is fine as long as they have a good day at work. And if you try to tell them what is happening, you’re going to sound like you’re off your rocker about something, like some kind of Alex Jones nut, because you’re so far out of step with their previous cognitive model.

    Education and media are a massive chunk of the problem.
