... I'm detecting a theme here.

If you're -really- interested in the state of modern politics, I would recommend Frontline. The've done an excelent series of reports on Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, the war in Iraq, Finding the Taliban in Afganistan, and others.

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/
"Rumsfeld's War", "The War Behind Closed Doors.""The Dark Side", "Karl Rove: The Architect." "The Torture Question", "Private Warriors"

I'm going to stop listing them now. I think you get the idea.

I'd also recommend "Merchants of Cool" "The Secret History of the Credit Card", "The Persuaders" as an insight in to the abuses of people by corporations and government in their pocket.

-------------------

Yeah, the hip videos full of buzzwords like "Facist" and others get attention, but they don't add anything intelligable or relevant to the discussion of what is -really- going on. A barely undersandable music video of photoshopped images may hit some visceral nerves, but in the end it's not really all that important, or more importantly actionable (or you -could- act on it, but either do nothing or worse, make the situation even worse).

Honestly, get some legitimate journalism under your belt when you talk about these things. You'll find that the world is far, far stranger, and far far more disturbing in ways you hadn't even thought of than filling your head with one-liner "hotbutton" phrase propaganda videos.

My $0.02.

Dauric.

Dear Renegade,
While I appreciate your links to informative videos, they really take way to long to download and I just don't bother anymore :/

Dauric,

I agree completely about pisspoor documentaries. I have long blamed Moore for screwing up the 04 election because that stupid movie was so poorly done it discredited what could have been very legitimate attacks on Bush.

CrappyDom;

The Alex Jones 911 Road To Tyranny is much better in some ways. I don't agree with all his conclusions, just some. I agree about Moore, it was too partisan and that detracted from it's value.

As far as the election goes, there may have been no way to keep these cockraoches out, the supreme court decided the election.

I'll say it again, we are in deep shit.
