I really like how resistant we as a species are to propaganda. It doesn't seem to matter how hard it's pushed and explained, most people don't fully buy into anything. That's not always a good thing, but it means mistakes, regardless of their momentum, eventually get reconsidered. Also, in the digital age we're losing track of how our own everyday technologies work, but considering how far we've come, it's hella impressive it took this long.

I really dislike our tribalism and egotism.
