Slight nitpick, the pictured officer is from victoria, not WA. Not that it matters.

Loose plan:

Find out what they know about the world and what their mental model is. Eg is the news real because journalists are on the scene, or because they have "credentials" or because it's checked by editors so the multiple layers give it "truthiness"

Dismantle those pre suppositions and then get them to state and verbally take the position that it's not as real as it was at the start of the session.

Then move onto asking them what would make something "true" and get them to think about the issue and rebuild a new mental model. Once they've done this recompare their new model to what exists and highlight the gulf between reality and their new mental model.

Reinforce the primacy of their new mental model by comparing the thought they've put into that, compared to the model that had before that had no thought into it and was given to them by the media. Which they now know is propaganda. This is to prevent backsliding.

Praise them for thinking through an issue and creating a new model from scratch as most people aren't able to do that.

Keep in mind part of the "revolution" is the revolutionaries riding in to restore law and order to fix what they started in the first place.

Alex Jones had the best take.

It's great now, but eventually you will need to have one to compete, like having an email address or mobile phone.

I've had this discussion with Girlfriends decades ago.

They already thought they can/could, they didn't need action movies to think this.

The historical ads around the issue are pretty interesting if you can find them anywhere. Interesting to see which arguments were proved correct.

There's a huge area of normal recreation between getting sucked into addiction and dismissing everything fun.

Is London just totally left wing now? Is there any more conservative/tory section?

I think it's great a man can wake up from a 20 year coma and immediately start posting on forums. The war in Iraq didn't go well in answer to your next question.

Not so subtle but the demoralisation in normies. It's not actually too hard to get people to notice, but try it out. See how talking about problems makes people become depressed and want to change topics. The learned helplessness is worrying.

We're from the same place.

People have the wrong impression of Australia. I was listening to Konstantin Kisin on Alex Antic's podcast today and he said it seemed that Australia was less far down the woke path as the rest of the world. That seems to be a common impression people have of Australia that seems to come from the laidback attitude we have.

The reason the culture war doesn't seem to be a thing over here, is because there's literally no-one to fight against it. The rest of the anglosphere have cucked conservative parties to at least act as a punching bag which looks likes a "culture war"

Here in Australia our most recent "conservative" PM was Tony Abbott and he's fairly active in speaking tours etc since his time as PM, I've listened to a few of his interviews and what's immediately obvious is that he has no idea what happened during his tenure, nor has any insights in his post political career.

We are a deeply authoritarian country that culturally hates people exceeding, we are actually quite bitter and spiteful, we might be descended from convicts, but we are also descended from their jailers.

If you're not from Aus you might think it's a pretty good place. Let me tell you we combine all the worst aspects of the anglosphere in one, laidback apathetic mishmash.

I saw on X that the maths literacy rate for that school is 5% and it reminded me of James Lindsey's book The marxism of education where he used the example of a school that had similar rates of literacy, but was protesting school shootings or something.
