Great movie. I tried to get my civics teacher to show it in HS, but my argument that the US is mostly controlled by corps wasn't very good.

- jacquesm 16y agoScary movie too in many ways. Especially the bits about water and cattle / news.
- Create 16y agoTo help develop your argument, try: Edward Bernays: Propaganda or the movie "version": Century of the Self (both on archive.org, btw Adam Curtis is about as underrated as Robert Fisk -- no means by accident) Manufacturing Consent (same spirit movie as in the thread) Understanding Power (basically they simplify and reiterate stuff backed up in this book) And and if you are still reading this, have fun reading Dictators, by Jacques Bainville.
- arethuza 16y agoRobert Fisk's "The Great War for Civilisation: The Conquest of the Middle East" is strongly recommended - a very personal account, and all the better for it.
