I always find it interesting when someone or something wants to "educate" me rather than "inform" me. It's an easy way to discern which people or organisations are disseminating propaganda as their mission, rather than provide facts and then let me decide how to interpret same. "Education" means omission of anything deemed contrary to the mission of the educator and sometimes even outright falsification of information to "fortify" their opinions.
The other keyword is "democracy", which of course is mob rule. Interesting that "freedom", which is said to be the cornerstone upon which western values are built, almost never appears near the word "democracy". This is proper because "democracy" is the exact opposite of freedom.
