Like, hate me by all means, but at least know what it is you hate. Don’t say “antifa are the real fascists”. Don’t call me a “socialist liberal anarchist tankie”. For fucks sake, Marxism isn’t “forcing people to wear a mask”. This shit makes me wanna warp to another galaxy.

    12 is about where I would agree too. It depends on the topic and the scale, as well as the specific child.

    I also think "indoctrinated" is the literal correct term, rather than trained

      Hmm...so I think most political 16 year old's are indoctrinated too. I say trained with young kids as they have no idea what they're saying, it is just works they've been conditioned to repeat. But absolutely, being conditioned to repeat dogma is one of the earliest steps of indoctrination. It's like the Pledge of Allegiance. We were all (in the US) trained to say it, but it never indoctrinated me with actually believing those words once I was old enough to understand.
