The strongest propaganda apparatus on the planet truly is something horrifying to behold, because it spawned us smug, condescending, confidently wrong internet losers who are almost impossible to deprogram.

It’s a lot easier for “nonpolitical” consumers to nod along to all of the totally-not-role-models-but-yes-they-are-role-models on their screens and LARP as the Adults In The Room who Don’t Give A Fuck (compassion is for fools and weaklings, after all!) and Make The Hard Decisions (profitable ones, too) to Get Shit Done (atrocities).
