[Mus Zibii]

I love propaganda! Its another one of those things the Nazis ruined in WW2. Now everyone has to pretend that there's no psychological element to making a point.

Whether you love or hate Micheal Moore, he's gotta be the king of propaganda. Its so funny watching his critics try to scramble to rebut his contentions even as he releases more and more and more, virtually drowning his opponents with fast and loose sentiment.

Propaganda use to really be an artform. Now its a dirty word.
