I changed it to "indoctrination". Which is a more polite word that doesn't really do it justice, but it's not really important because the result, the inability to even meaningfully interact with the charges, is a constant.

As George Orwell put it, from the totalitarian perspective history is something to be created, rather than learned.

I just cannot find a flattering way to describe these things, there just is no material to work with for that.
