Some video-games, some books and some movies can help to inspire a more inquiring mind.
While many are fantasy-like, they can give a good idea about what might be going on in reality.
The Fall-out games are full with crazy science experiments.
Computing forever talks about dystopian movies, like minority report
The Book Lord of the Rings is full with war, betrayal, lust-for-power, etc. There are more books like that.

Via the internet people can learn a lot more about tricks that are going on. About magic-tricks, about lying with statistics, about forcing the outcome. About propaganda, astroturfing, forum and discussion manipulations, etc.
