Perspective can be made by creating permanent thought sculptures - for viewing, disassembling and re-assembling in different structures and perspectives.

Spot on RBG. Propaganda leads to polarization, polarization leads to survivalist mode (there can be no compromise, its either our way or total destruction) and survivalist mode leads to violence.
