i read CS Lewis’ A Grief Observed one time years ago and i’m still not recovered from it

I've said this before and I'll say it again: it's more important to know and understand fully why something is harmful than it is to drop everything deemed problematic. It's performative and does nothing. People wonder why nobody has critical thinking skills and this is part of it because no one knows how to simousltansly critique and consume media. You need to use discernment.

This is ultimately why propaganda is going to work on you. Because you never learned how to think for yourself and the actual ideology behind things. You simply rely on group think and the bare minimum explanations to tell you what's good and bad.

It is so fuckin chef's kiss when a character quite obviously Fucks Up and makes a Bad Choice but specifically in a way where you're like. Man idk what I would've done in this situation either.
