-Caveat Lector-
Das GOAT does it again! Television has become the greatest
tool of warfare in the history of the world. Warfare
perpetrated by a government with global aspirations on The
People. The secrets gleaned by the American and European
industrialist sponsors of Nazi Germany were directly applied
to pop media as a means to control...It is Psychological
Warfare in no uncertain terms. It is very easy to see when
one removes ones self from its influence.

==========
CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters

frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
