It always feels like there's a lie, and there's those who have the truth to set us free. It's like this for almost everything. When we choose to be set free, sometimes were actually choosing to become part of the real lie. When we choose to supposedly "stay stupid", sometimes were actually being part of the enlightened group and have avoided being conned by lies.
How do we know though? Is the person who believes all sorts of conspiracy theories and tales of "wierd shit" because it's the "truth" any less gullible then the person who never believes any of it and ends up staying in a lie?
Any ideas on how to maximize enlightenment and minimize gullibilty?
