--{ Propaganda Makes You Feel the Unreal:
"Information Data, Constantly Streaming,
Leaves Even News Addicts Weak, Screaming,
Mind Overload, Safety Valve Blowing,
Victim's Controlled without Ever Knowing,
Keeping Thoughts to Oneself can Be Hard,
Sharing Loses Friends, You May Get Barred,
Don't Panic or Allow Yourself to Be Driven
By Endless Bad News, Merciless, Unforgiving,
Study and Learn that All's Total Control,
Stand for What's Right, Reclaim Your Soul" © Alan Watt }--
