Are you suggesting that if you are from the US, you are unable to form an opinion of the facts that are presented from both sides?

I did have to go to school some time ago, but I also gained access to the internet during that time that allows anyone to research both sides of a topic. There are tons of books available that provide descriptions from both sides.

Why do I have to be on one side or the other? Is it because of my push back against a specific side, you assumed I aligned with the other?

Are you a troll? Why do you keep willfully misrepresenting or twisting what others are saying into something slightly different?

My point, that from the 1950s through the 2010s, no one in the US or Western Europe has been presented facts from both sides, and seeking out facts from the "wrong" side would result in social, financial, and possible criminal penalties, was incredibly clearly stated.

Because of the way you keep twisting others' words, it seems pretty safe to assume you would side with the fascist religious ethnostate that's been committing a genocide for decades with the financing and approval of the US and EU state, military, financial, media, and educational apparatuses.

People who oppose fascism don't communicate the way you have communicated in this thread.

Its interesting that you did not quote any of my reply while accusing me of "willfully misrepresenting or twisting what others are saying into something slightly different". The goal was for me to make sure I understood what you are communicating.

It seems we agree. The internet was much more available 15 years again in 2010 than it was prior. Since then, unlimited opportunity has opened to research each perspective, and even share those with people across the world.

At no point in this thread have a resorted to name calling, I hope your day is better.
