I studied philosophy because I wanted to learn about truth. Instead I was taught all the different ways people are controlled. But if you look up any philosophical model on the internet today, you find (first you find that even the scholarly websites have been extensively edited quite recently) that anyone who mentions societal control is a conspiracist in league with the likes of Alex Jones. Well, take their word for that, don't question what you are told, and certainly don't bother reading it for yourself. Everything is just fine, under control, if you prefer.
