a government of the pentagon, by the pentagon, and for the pentagon....
From the Laugh-in show 40 years ago. We all thought that this would not happen again, but such dreams seem to die quickly.

:sad:

1. They been running propaganda since then.
Edited on Mon May-16-11 01:23 AM by RandomThoughts
That would make sense.

When they saw the media effect on war on vietnam is when they moved people into media. Although it is not Pentagon, it is cold warriors with one goal, total capitalism till collapse. A feudal system is what they want.

Moving people into media from military and intelligence happens also, they want the people that serve as soldiers to be 'citizens'. If you see a new TV star pop up from nowhere, and they get a blitz of coverage, they were probably placed into some area.


They want the Ancient Roman Model.


Only property holders, and former soldiers as Citizens. Slavery and ownership of people by threat of hardship.


Don't you understand this.


They been changing TV shows for years on my TV. Some examples, the captain name on Star Blazers being replayed was changed to Avatar. A few shows that are CGI are on, that never were around before yet have multiple years of episodes. They changed part of Star Trek TV show, and many TV episodes, to get noun correlation, and take out any thoughtful comments.

They litterally are dubing and editing movies for political comments on my TV.

And the History Channel is mostly made up, since there is a ton of errors in episodes compared to other episodes, they use tv to tell current event stories, some of them think they are talking to aliens with TV, some think they are laying down actual news of current events for temporal lore.

But the TV is being edited on my channels, although that could easily be a Gonzo program.

4. Here is the thing.

They think that if it is on TV, it is knowledge, and they think knowledge is power.

That is why they want to dumb people down.

And why many are against education.




I am not saying everyone is like that, and honestly if they running a gonzo program on my tv, then this internet site as seen on my computer would be a gonzo program also. although you might see this post :) since without the other 100, it only tries to make it seem like my comments are off base.

But the point is, I am due beer and travel money, and many experiences, and they know that.


However they do not know that millions see the stuff they can't see, and the rules applied back on censorship is really bad, so it is not like they can block anything anyways.

Has anyone stopped to consider that the reason some might not be able to comprehend some of this stuff is rules applied back on ideas of sharing knowledge.

A nice song.

6. At one time Social Security was considered the third rail of politics
Now it seems the Pentagon has become the holy grail and such it can not be touched. Our nations values have become so corrupt that we will let people starve on our own shore so we can bomb other nations into democracy.

It is something right out a sick twilight zone scene.
