This is a good point. We all are deluded to degrees here, no matter how strong some oppinions are expressed. I guess unless you follow geopolitics by reading multiple news sources, cross-examining and validating as you go, you can't claim to have a very realistic worldview, and the painting from one's bias is inescapable. The scary thing is, the public perception of current events is getting more and more twisted although this is the 'information age' and everything. You'd think that since info is readily available, people would want to know the straight deal. It seems however, that they are more content with casual infomation collection, that serves idle needs as 'having something to say' on a subject, rather than having something well-informed and vital to say on a subject. Obviously, the amount of effort involved in having a rounded opinion is key.
