Read Bacon and re-read it, and see how feverishly you worship the idols he goes against.
It seems like critical thinking hardly applies to your ardent and sad dogmatism.
Practicing one thing and preaching the opposite - oh, how enigmatic the way of retorics can be.

As to views and attitudes -some can be adopted by a person based on sheer economic
and social benefits.
Yet, in other cases, such belief systems, once assuming a sound ontological status based on economic or social reality, can wavelike infiltrate into wider circles.
It is nevertheless useful to elucidate their origins

No, I talked about a spread of ideas.
You may hold some views that are not affecting directly your situation, even if this is not the case with many other people, whose views are of existential relevance

Giving a propagandist broadcasting resources to deliver his messages is nothing but allowing his propaganda to capture his target audience

Are you out of your mind?

An interview can be far more effective than a monologue, once assuming the format of a lively dialogue

It contains turns - to encompass wider scope - and
emphases for focusing. These, mind you, are not self-initiated but initiated by the other person, to capture attention and to gain access for propoganda through current issues of interest

And furthermore, it withdraws attention from questions not asked, such as "why did you respond with war to Barak offers of much more than initially agreed upon"

Since it gives the illusion of responding to current
agenda, it has an "actuality value" which can still endow a worn-out propaganda with a disguise of confronting important issues.

The British people was rather confident in his war efforts to defend its freedoms
