10. The Bushigandtists in Corporate M$M keep hammering home those RW Linguistic frames
Edited on Wed Jun-30-10 12:51 PM by tom_paine
"Obama blasts"

"Obama slams"

FOX News used "blasts", because of course it connotes belligerence and cynical strategic manipulation.

You know, EXACTLY what the Rushpublics themselves are doing and have been doing since they opted for 24/7 demagoguery to much great success some 40 years ago.

Ever notice the term demogoguery and demagogue have been completely edited out of our National Dialogue?

Can't let us Plebians be exposed to any context or history or anything like that.

I will say again, the RW's Triumph of the Will is far more powerful than Hitler could ever have dreamed of. Hitler didn't have the vast array of advnaced PR and marketing tools that the modern Bushie RW, so perhaps it's not fair to compare the two.

Ed Bernays was just getting started when Hitler used his work to murder 6,000,000 Jews, 5,000,000 Poles, gypsies, gays, and 20,000,000 more with his Bush-financed War Machine.

Carl Jung was right, way back in 1910 or so when he correctly stated that future wars would not be against people, but against our own psychoses.

I might add that such psychoses have and apparently always will be, cultivated by our Aristocratic Rulers so as to keep us fighting each other like bugs in bottles and to keep them farting through silk for the rest of human history (which probably doesn't have that much longer to run, in geologic and maybe literal terms).
