So I am guessing that they no longer care about how it looks.

(4,695 posts)They enjoy having having it said to them that they own us body and soul. Watch how the 1% audience loves this. Is that Dina Shore doing the introduction? 1950s.

2. Global warming is a hoax perpetrated by the United Nations. Or barring this, it is instead something which shall one day doom humanity to extinction or primitive ruin and there is nothing that can or should be done to stop it(because we say so!), because doing something shall collapse the economy, or cause many other "unexpected" ha!) consequences(because we say so, and when possible, will make it so to prove our point!). Doomers and deniers, we play both sides. Because we can.
3. The NSA does not need reform. The NSA is perfect. Go back to your cubicles and your housing blocks.
4. We are not your real enemies.....Black people are your enemies....."illegal" immigrants are your enemies.....Muslims are your enemies.....Liberals are your enemies.....etc.
5. Putin's Russia is godly. You should strive to emulate his examples.
6. China is not going to collapse soon. China will become great #1 superpower.
7. Only American spying is bad. Do not pay attention to that of other countries....because we say so.
8. Things can only ever get worse and always be worse than expected all the time. This applies to many things from global warming to the condition of the U.S. economy, and all sorts in between.....because we say so.
9. Do not question Saudi Arabia's involvement in 9/11; only blame Israel, the Vatican or Luciferian shape-shifting lizard things from Mars. Because we say so.
10. We can never be ousted and are in no danger of losing our power, ever. We are demigods on Earth. Accept us, for we are the cream of humanity. Because we say so.
