I think there is an argument to be made that, you can’t. A civilization (or barbarity) is going to tell the stories it wants told and propagate those. There is no effective counter but reality itself. No force of counter storytelling will have any effect on this.
Deprivation will. War will. As always, when these lead to destruction of the storytelling apparatus of those in power, and those in power themselves, and replacement by others, with other stories to tell.
When those in power and their stories become too retarded, too asinine, yet continue to hold sway over a population of retards, even as they sink into starvation, one can only hope for the end, not for reversal, not for improvement
I really like you. I’m off-grid, self-taught in manual arts and music and I have little to offer your piece but to say I’m with you guys n the quiet revolution not being televised and we will always be here

Excellent post. In my childhood I too was a reader and renegade and never grew up.
