    cf. Finland

    Excellent media literacy and digital literacy education built into an excellent foundation of general education, with the government supporting people’s awareness of the centuries of bullshit from Tsars and Soviet expansionism and oligarchs.

    Basically mind vaccines.

        Nothing specific to Finland, I am not a historian and familiar enough with the details of their system. Here is a brief overview for you.

        However, there is an enormous body of literature regarding media literacy, and a smaller, but still helpful, and mostly online, set of resources for digital literacy.

        In Canada, a good resource is https://mediasmarts.ca/

        There are undoubtedly media literacy resources available to you from your particular region, which may address regional issues like Russian propaganda.
