I realized a long time ago that lack of information isn’t the problem. We’re basically living in a Brave New World now; most people are too distracted to realize they’re being poisoned and would only accept it if the very institutions doing it told them they were doing it. But IMO it’s more of an emotional thing - once you realize it it’s hard to go back to the comfy world of “actually the bureaucrats and shareholders are looking out for my well-being”.
