Subject: RE: BS: Who's Next? Iran or Korea?
The USA wants its people ignorant and subservient too, for much the same reasons. So they will believe the unbelievable, and follow orders. ;-) Every dominating and oppressive system wants its people that way. The same was true of the Soviets, and is true of Red China.
In the case of the USA, this is achieved through a barrage of political propaganda, news that misleads and disinforms, and mass marketing of goods and entertainment.
Who is MORE ignorant? Well, that would be a tough, tough competition at this point.
