A lot of them need to be actively exposed to other views and opinions to break free. So usually when they go to college.

but internet does all that too. Especially more immersive social media like Youtube or podcasts. I'm generally very optimistic but the progress of our information network as someone who lived through it turned out much weaker than we thought it'd be. Maybe that human exposure of college is much more powerful thant basically infinite knowledge at your fingertips.
