January 24, 2005 journal, revolution is on the way by those who feel left out of the voice.

The influence of television is in full government control to spread propaganda, fear and to control the thinking of the people. I continue quoting from Jolly Roger on television evil.

"Felt who happens to be the loser of every one of them. The American people demanded these wars, and these changes to our society, in response to information given to them by the television, and newspapers. All of these wars have resulted in the end of privacy, more laws, tougher judges, more police with increased powers, more surveillance cameras, more prisons, longer sentences, the demise of our constitutional rights, and naturally, all of this has been done in the name of freedom. The United States federal government, working through the entertainment and news industries, has taught us to think contrary to sense, work against our own self interest, and to believe that our world is much more dangerous than it actually is. They invented this danger so we would beg for their oppression in a package labeled "protection," and there's no longer any shame in not protecting yourself, because for the last twenty years, the television has also bombarded our culture with messages designed to feminize men, and convince them their pride is "foolish." I guess we're lucky they did that, or all this oppression might have caused a revolution by now. The real slap in the face is being called an "economic girlie-man" by an Austrian Nazi for not willingly jumping headlong into generations of poverty so his friends can bask in obscene wealth. In their arrogance, they must be laughing at us. And you certainly can't trust anyone under twenty, because if they grew up staring into the television, as many Americans do, they were raised by the C.I.A. They take pride in being first to inform the authorities on any matter, but any previous generation would have ostracized them for being "squealers" or "rats." Children are learning the rules of society from the television rather than their parents, our culture is no longer passed from one generation to the next, and clueless parents wonder why they can't control their kids. Don't blame the children. It must be difficult to respect a parent when there are so many better people on TV. It was you who sat them in front of the electronic babysitter for their daily brainwashing session, and as a result, whatever knowledge they don't receive from a government approved school curriculum, comes from a government approved TV script. You're not allowed to discipline them, and you can't compete with the television for their attention. You have to take care of them, but they're not yours anymore. Now they belong to the government, and Thomas the fascist tank engine, who smiles when he's forced to work like a slave. Americans once looked upon the poor and disadvantaged with pity, and compassion, but through the miracle of "perception management," we now look at them with scorn, and disgust, and we blame them for bringing all of life's bad luck upon them-selves. We certainly don't want any money going toward any social programs when it's so desperately needed to finance tax cuts for the rich. It was also during the Reagan administration that homelessness first became a problem, but we no longer see homeless people on the street for the same reason we never see the horrors of war, or the flag-draped coffins. Our government has become efficient at sanitizing our world of everything that might evoke our pity, so that we might labor on, thinking all is fine in America. We only know what the government wants us to know, and they've also taught us a new way to react to the knowledge they can't hide from us. America can never be free again, unless Americans can first free their minds from the government's grip, and that grip is exerted through the television. Just get off the couch and put a sledgehammer through the screen.
