While knowledge will always be power, in today's society, it's also a curse, constantly having to deal with people who refuse to explore knowledge and accurate history.
There is another problem, that we have to identify a difference between accurate history and much of the history that is taught in schools and riddling the internet. Revisionist nonsense that's constantly being tweaked and twisted to fit a political agenda.
We're not even going to bring up religion, it's altered and tossed around from Sunday to Sunday, depending on the whims of the con-man pushing it.
Today we have a large number of people who refuse to believe any information unless it's been filtered through a cable "news" channel, anything else, even first hand experience, is dismissed as if it were scribbling on a cocktail napkin.
We not only have the rejection of knowledge but the bitter vitriol in a backlash to anything that doesn't go along with what they believe, it's truly a terrifying day when people are rejecting anything that disagrees with them.
Worst of all, we have a large group of people who seem to be rejoicing and glorifying ignorance, praising it as their religion. On top of that, they mock intelligence, they belittle those who speak the truth and try any way they can to silence anyone with an opposing opinion.
Knowledge is power, knowledge needs to be praised and glorified, not ignorance and obedience.
Gather as much knowledge as you can, from as many aspects and sources as possible, compile knowledge, store it, build on it, it is the only thing that will save civilized society.
