I vehemently disagree! I believe the "powers that be" need to stop using "the media" to tell people what to believe and how to feel in this hyper-politically correct social environment that "they" engineered. We simply cannot all be the same...... and rebellion or disregard for traditional moral values is the easiest thing to teach a child.


Tony, look at what you wrote and notice that you "beg the question" with part of your quote, as if it's an unquestioned belief that everyone has, that "the powers-that-be are using media to tell people what to believe." It begs the question, and maybe over-generalizes?

I think you would need to prove that first (tall order) before you can make a statement that assumes that's just a natural-borne fact..

But let's be careful not to sway this too deep into the political arena, cuz then things will most certainly go to shite..

Otherwise, have fun! smile
