Where you a philosophy student at one time?
All my life, I suppose. But I've been involved in a variety of political and social movements. That gives me some experience and perspective on how political agendas are formulated and propogandized.

I suppose you could say that I have a "nose" for propoganda and recognize how people can be indoctrinated into supporting a cause without being fully conscious of it.

For instance, the feminist movement (more choices for women, often at the expense of choices for men) has done such of good job of mainstreaming their agenda that many men support the feminist agenda without being fully aware of it.
