And then when you look at that, you realize, okay, I have ideas that I've inherited from authorities or my parents or schools or my peer group that are getting in the way and implanting these ideas that are causing problems in my life. And then you look outside of yourselves like, oh, where did I get these ideas from? That's how you start to see the matrix around you.

That's how you got to see the ideas that were implanted in you that are causing dysfunction in your own life and in society at large.

Yeah. I think one of them was this idea that there's such a thing as unbiased information when it comes to the news. That was probably the first thing that I realized was distorting my own worldview and not causing me to see the political landscape clearly. So to give you a little bit of background, I was a lifelong Democrat and pretty much Democrat by default because I'm Black,

I was born in New York. I worked in tech. I lived in California. It was just Democrat reinforcement all the way around. And I never had to really think deeply about my beliefs. It was just socially reinforced and passed along to me by my parents and everyone around me.

So when I started seeing the New York Times or CNN or many of these mainstream news outlets who I just trusted as sources of objective, unbiased information, say negative things about Trump, I just took them at face value. I was like, okay, if they're reporting these negative things about Trump, they just must be true. Because when I look at news, I was like, oh, well, this is, what do you mean?

It's bias. It's the news. It's just information. And then we get to choose what we do with that information. as I started to realize that this entire idea of objective people was itself a fantasy, I started to realize that the idea of objective institutions was itself a fantasy. So everyone has a perspective. Everyone's a walking perspective.

We only have the interiority of our own experience and our own beliefs and ideas that we come up with. So even if you're trying to not be subjective, you are still subjective. It's the same thing with institutions. I don't think the New York Times was necessarily trying to demonize Trump intentionally, although I think they kind of are now.

I think they just had a perspective on what the world should be, who's a good person, who's a bad person. And they distributed that perspective to everyone else, including New York Times readers like me. So once I realized that, oh, I have a default assumption that these other people are objective, but they can't be because they're people just like me.
