The image is of a monitor and keypad pixelated as if from an '80s video game. The text on the monitor reads "capitalism is so dehumanizing an inherently corrupt that just honestly describing it passes for 'commie propaganda'".

Even if I'd known nothing, it would be still better than knowing completely fake, fabricated version of history.

    There’s no pure, unfiltered, raw history. We can research it from multiple angles, recognize our sources had their biases just as we have ours, and come to an academic consensus about probabilistic reconstruction. Even then, you are free to create your own belief about the various interpretations of history and pick a narrative that fits your world view. That’s why some folks believe ancient aliens built the pyramids and others believe it was the Hebrew slaves, no matter how much evidence points to the contrary. Or you can choose ignorance. Is it as blissful as they say it is?
