We just disagree on this. Boy do we ever. Think of the military indoctrination of soldiers. Military are prepared as they go into war with all kinds of subtle indoctrinations to learn to hate the enemy. They have to have this indoctrination as their life depends on it. Marines were told absolutely gruesome stuff about what they might face in Iraq from Iraqi soldiers - most of it likely false, but said to save their lives. Kids in the military are very impressionable and what they are told by those who train them - their peers - matters. .........So to think this work for soldiers, but somehow is all processed correctly by impressionable kids hooked into a specific political leaning is just weird and I believe completely wrong. AND, it has nothing to do with the press - another canard.
