After keeping away from television for awhile, it's plain to see the mass hypnosis and propoganda going on. For example, a recent abc drama had "a group of anti-zionists who were going to blow up schools". Jack Bauer tortures people on a regular basis. Posse Comitatus is declared null and void in another. Much of this crap is to indoctrinate and ease you into a coming police state where torture and stripping of your rights is the norm.
Think I'm kidding about television shows being influenced like this? Dean Haglund was an actor in The Lone Gunmen. Haglund stated that after years of writing the X-files, the FBI and NASA would approach Chris Carter with plots for stories. He also discussed the fact that the CIA have since the 80's hired informants posing as psychics to attend Hollywood parties and report back to the CIA on general trends and talking points.
Anyhow, there was an episode of Boston Legal recently,seemingly not imbued with propoganda, in which Spader's character makes his summation. In it he discusses torture, war on false pretenses, domestic spying, restrictions on protesting and other constitutional freedoms, and other fun topics. Some of the points are arguable, such as "there are no demonstrations on college campuses" (it's more likely that there are such protests and this doesn't get covered by the corporate media.)
Regardless of the flaws, it's a beautiful, empassioned speech -- unfortunately it's from a fictional tv character.
These are ideas that SHOULD be coming out of our politicians and mass media
