53. And what controls the vast propaganda machine?

Corporations.

TV is owned...the masses get their daily dose of kool-aid and happily believe whatever the corpora-fascist want. The propaganda runs deep and it runs often.

The masses are dulled to the truth and instead filled with the un-reality of TV.

Which pill will you take? The red or the blue? And I do not mean to speak of party affiliations...an interesting take on the metaphor can be found here...http://www.arrod.co.uk/essays/matrix.php

Peace
