Fascinating investigative journalism piece. The plot thickness, that it's not some shadowy foreign powers meddling in western democratic processes - but western elites using mass social engineering against their own people. https://twitter.com/Liam_O_Hare/status/978727648225619970 …
If I were to design a civilization and it would be overcome by another civilization because it had better military and social control technologies, I would have failed, no? Disliking military and social control is not a mitigating circumstance in an evolutionary competition.

The thing that is "overcoming" us, is not an other civilisation, but human-made climate change. I'm not against guidance (control with trust & agency), but i do sense progress is moving away from the militaristic/brutal forms of "education", towards more gentle ideas.
