When people talk about propaganda I like to point out friends, because it's perfect as an example. Not only do it lead people to believe there's hardly any black people in New York, but because everyone watched it and it presented itself as a comedy, it was considered fun. But it weren't.

Disclaimer, I know people that would die on the hill of Friends being hilarious.

As an outside observer, I see your point, but I also see how you've come to the point.
The uncomfortable truth is that your government needs to be burnt to the ground. It's truly irredeemable at this point.

Not my government. I'm an outside observer as well :) Sadly governments in these parts of the world employ similar strategies.
