    The fact is that people don't want to think themselves any more, and politics use it to a high degree.

    But I rather more worried about a possibility of losing the educational system in Russia. That is what really dangerous... and creates multiple flat Earths.
    So, you are not fully fluent in English and you think you understand that video?

    I used mr. Fromm analysis in answer the initial post, where Russian were shown in a positive way. A cold war arrived in few years. And after WW2 US propaganda started to show a very different picture. As far as I understand the question was how could it happen that people accepted the change so fast?

    In my veiw mr. Fromm gives a clear answer, which is very close to truth. Besides, we have a very similar situation in Russia now, which he sad. Moreover, if you have seen the interview till the end, you might have noticed that his forecast for Russia and US future is also coming true. And it has nothing to do with Marx (Ihmo his views is more close to anarchist than socialist).

    And in fact I do admire the Americans of 1958, who were giving the word to the dissidents, which never happened in my country.

    Cliché?!? So, what makes you qualified to determine what I am taught? If I am taught anything, I'm "taught" to think critically and try to apply logic as best I can.

    You're talking about a MSM TV network that uses a 'liberal' (read: left-wing) TV anchor to CAREFULLY CRAFT questions to a socialist psychoanalyst. I'm sure he's exploited the system he criticizes to become quite affluent. This is all to dull the senses of the audience and portray this 'black and white' situation. They omit all the intangibles. Not only has every single one of the socialist systems failed but the accusaton that capitalism per se is responsible solely for this decay or that it is so simple to make the sweeping generalization without any evaluation or analysis is the real propaganda. There's a general push towards this fascist socialism in every country and it's what should be discussed.

    Goverments use the corporate world to establish it but no one is debating or discussing this on national TV.
