Yours is an astute observation. It pays to be aware of the memes, the main recurrent themes that are being pushed out across our media, arts and our educational institutions.
The aim is to create emptiness and hopelessness. The question then becomes: what is to fill that emptiness and redeem that hopelessness? The answer is the stuff of nightmares.

I’ve seen the cube and it still boils down to freedom vs. slavery. We win, we are free. We lose and we become slaves. It’s that simple.
There are people all over the cube that still prefer freedom to slavery. Are we to exclude one of the corner dwellers because we don’t think they love freedom? If so, the war is already lost.
If that is the way they take it, so be it. I don’t believing in starting trouble, but, if trouble comes, I will not turn tail and run like a scared rabbit , either.
First time I heard of them, but I don’t get around very much. I just go to Free Republic and to town and back home. I do not strt trouble and will try to avoid it, but,if it comes, I will not run or turn the other cheek to get slapped.
Calm down archy. Don’t be so heavy handed on the poor keyboard.
I would just rather see more fun programing and movies.
I just don’t want to see people being injured in crashes. Don’t need to see the inside of a jail. “Shark Week” does not turn me on. Nor does “Hillbilly Handfishin’”
There are so many ‘reality’ shows where someone is always pissed at somebody else. Not my type of entertainment.
Also, did you know that when cable first came out, it was advertised as “commercial free T.V.”.
Most of us, and our kids, spend many hours in front of the tube. If only the hours actually taught us something, while making it fun. Those are the ones I try to watch.
I do spend a lot of time searching...and sometimes I have to just shut the damn thing off.
Not much left to the “cult of Obama” now. Even his fans wonder if he really has what it takes to be President. He’s looking more and more lost. If there’s a fanatical spirit now, it’s more a result of fear rather than hope or faith.

Yep : )
Thanks for the ping.
