You can actually back it up a step to the day of your birth. Your parents were also consumer-slaves, who thought and behaved as such, and who began enculturating you into the system from the very beginning.
True. I think school is where kids completely ‘break’ though (that bit of creative, free will in them dies).
Yes, right on target. I didn't mention it, but John Taylor Gatto said that one of the most important imperatives of the "education" system is "the extinction of the imagination". A few years later, a NASA study showed that's exactly what they're doing:
Study Shows We Are Born Creative Geniuses But The ‘Education’ System Dumbs Us Down
I have often thought that perhaps this really is the key to our enslavement. That is, if you are unable to imagine a world much different than it is now, well, you're never going to try to bring it into manifestation, are you?
Look around: the world is filled with people that 100% believe they live in the best of all possible worlds. Hold on! The operative word is "possible". It is explained to them by the authorities that all improvements to the current state of affairs are blocked by and all their problems are to blame on: Trump, or Putin, or climate change, or Christians, or Muslims, or whatever other phantom or enemy of the NWO..
Thus, almost everyone lives in the best of all possible worlds.
