This episode is also available as a blog post: https://azprojects.wordpress.com/2022/08/08/how-power-shapes-our-thoughts/ We are used to thinking of "knowledge" as valid information about the world we live in. However, our knowledge consists of information we have received from history books and textbooks, which form part of our syllabus at schools. If the educational system, and the syllabus, is produced by those in power, to achieve specific goals, then our knowledge will reflect these biases, without our being aware of them. That is, we can be educated to believe that the social, political, and economic systems we live in are the best possible, instead of realizing their flaws, and working to fix them. This is the power/knowledge thesis of Micheal Foucault, which says that the knowlege that we have about the world is systematically shaped to reflect the interests of the powerful. The thesis is explained in this episode.
