Believing something about the far past does not mean they’re unaware everyone else today is keeping them fed.

Only 4% of the US population hunts for themselves anymore. There are only 800,000 sworn LEO in the US (including Feds). Only 13% of adults have an advanced degree while the population response to polls is 30% or more possess such a degree.

Even today our daily beliefs of our society are off from “truth”. But direct collaboration is easy to see. It calls into question the value of social story and theories, imo.

The beliefs they implant are always “wrong” and yet society keeps on going.
