It takes a concerted effort to challenge your own conditioning and to question your own assumptions. Propaganda works for a reason.
Born and bred in Scotland, actually.
My mother isn't exactly interested in politics. Ask my father what he supports if you can track the bastard down. I formed the majority of my opinions on my own.
Interesting discussion about assumptions this.
