Television. Never before has mankind sat before a lighted screen for 40 hours a week and submitted happily to being told what to think.

Think about it. 40 hours a week.

And who runs television? Who are the producers, owners, etc etc? A narcissistic elite, who hold the brains of the nation in their hands.

Exactly...generations systematically turned into a leftist collective, while being disguised as just..."entertainment".

Alinsky would be so proud(so would Goebbels)
