As I consider the obvious current group of the "brainwashed" I also am uncomfortably often made aware of my own stuff. My own false beliefs, habits, pride, patches of mentally checking out into something comfortable like mindlessly meditating on sports scores or aspects of science. Part of the stimulation of looking at other people's delusion is the brief pause from being open to seeing one's own. The truth is I have no high ground over anybody. Those ensnared are welcome out of it, and can find others overjoyed and accepting, having been cheering them on the entire time.
And no doubt I'll continue finding various ways I've currently chosen to be ensnared, right to the end. It's a good, even great thing. :)
I do not believe in a god who would make a system as unfair as the one I’ve experienced. You are correct everyone has their own bias and misconceptions including myself. Responsibility is essential for society to flourish and refusing to admit one’s previous lies/mistakes while continuing to disparage others who disagree is the hallmark of a useful idiot.
I don't believe God made that system either. I do believe that God allows such things to happen and twists the outcomes into directing people to Himself for eternity.
