@Plinz How does one change their own social conditioning?

Find empathy with people that have weird and objectionable views, and look at your friends through their eyes. Let others challenge your convictions. Replace right/wrong with true/false. Be suspicious of moral feelings, trace them to their source. See politics as a computer game.

Thanks, that's a good checklist! Do you think some kind of philosophy can help do it? I made up(discovered?) my own information theory and it seems to help make sense of my mind and my surroundings.

I am curios about your theory! And there is literature on cult deprogramming!

My theory is several statements that relate to each other. The first one is: Information MUST be stored somewhere. I call it a philosophical theory because I have no proof of that statement, I simply can't think of another way for information to exist.

The second: Information MUST flow. For me to acquire information it must make the journey from it's place of storage into my mind(brain). If you take a book you haven't read, you cannot know what's inside. You have to open the book and expose your eyes to it!

The nature of the locus of information, how loci are connected, and how information changes in a locus and moves between them, is a profound direction to look at. It is also the core of physics, I think.
