But it can be censored, subverted, and rendered inert like post-modern art has.
I agree with him though. It is how I feel as a writer. I want to positively influence the masses to change. To be more curious, to ask questions, to challenge authority, to relook history, to relook the future, to be more kind and understanding, to try new methods instead of sticking with failing ones...
Agreed. Difficult to tell what is part of 'Operation Mindfuck' and what is part of the propaganda maintaining the status quo.
Got to love the guy's attitude though. When I teach I also try to raise topics to be questioned using a critical eye. To regard authority with a sceptical mind. And I also think it's important to help others become more understanding of situations and peoples that might be unusual or alien to them.
Thinking about it, maybe we're part of this operation too?
