"The quest is not just to refute propaganda, but to cease having an experience that is dominated by narrative."

this is impossible - we humans use narrative to make sense of out world - we are story telling animals - the quest is to understand this truth and to take control of it by examining where our personal narratives come from and who benefits from others .... without assuming we know their narrative

even the people we point out as "controlling" the narrative are more than likely living from unexamined narratives of their own - or at least unquestioned ones - we are all part of a narrative that began a very very long time ago
