There is a collective mind, a thoughtform or egregor, which can formulate around any particular subject. Mass media is about the industrialised manifestation of these entities, in an effort to create 'godhead', or "everyone knows _ about _" conditions. "Everyone knows that the _'s did it", is pretty much the epitome of such a substance. Mass, collective 'reality' is basically a function of the things we can get as many people to agree to, as possible. Alas, our individual instincts are not always aligned with the truth, nor the righteous, nor the just. Often-times our individual personalities, as functional components, mixed in certain ways into egregor, become vile creatures, nearly unstoppable power. This is why we do it. There is no such thing as "America". This is a device invented, manifested, and maintained by an entity so large it seems undefeatable to an individual. These powers are manufacturable. We can fabricate collective reality. What we can't do too well, is allow our collective minds to become too self-aware. This seems to collapse it in on itself. Thus, a measure of ones prowess might be, how many lies can you get others to believe, and then: how many can you get them to repeat, in order that it eventually becomes a 'truth'?
