    It is impossible to kill all the brain worms. I can ignore them. I can work hard to check myself on them. I can go out of my way to correct myself and work on myself and minimize it even fully remove all the negative impacts they may have on myself and my community. But they’re still there and I wish there was a way to fully burn them out.

    They’re just too ingrained and society reinforces them daily.

    I will never stop trying though. It’s all I can do. It’s all any of us can do, I think. Unless someone knows the secret to instantly removing all the wrong things society puts into our heads I’ll go for second best thing which is a lifetime of concerted effort.

      I didn’t become a Marxist until I was almost 30, and there is still of course constant anti-communism everywhere. We are fighting decades of brainworms sometimes, and we are also fighting daily negative reinforcement.
