    I do not remember this one at all. The School House Rock series are at the songs that I can’t get out of my head. Conjunction Junction and I’m just a Bill are two I must have seen hundreds of times. Also what ever that one was that said to “not drown your food”… and “hankering for a hunk of cheese”…haha Targeting Saturday morning cartoons for propaganda was the thing in the 70’s

      I wish the Schoolhouse Rock videos would play today – it would give kids a chance to learn some civics and grammar instead of the bullshit that is taught in schools.

      This one here….drives me crazy. There are so many medicinal benefits of marijuana that The baby boomers (and others) could benefit from but are terrified to even try, ie. Parkinson’s, pain relief, anxiety….

      I also feel like crime would be less because people would be chillin! Just my opinion. 😁

        Such a misrepresentation because it was cutting into the profit of the pharmaceutical companies. Marijuana was used for decades as medicine until it was banned in 1937.

      I wonder how many people viewing that on Freesteading would see that as a totally innocuous video clip? How many would see it as “Yea, a dog park”, and how many would see it as a messege saying, “If you want change, turn to the government to enable it”?

    I had a relative that was a participant of one of these tests. He died of parkinsons .. no reparations. He was one of 5 in his test that had not died yet. He wouldn’t even talk about it until the last couple years of his life.

    For me the biggest recent line of total propaganda bull💩 is …..”Trust the science”.

    This is the same science that once thought x-raying feet at shoe stores was a good idea, the same science that once promoted cigarettes for stress reduction, the same science that use to dish out the original coke with cocaine in it and also the same science that thought a lobotomy was a cure all for many. These folks okay’d roundup, zantac, food dyes that are banned elsewhere,…. the list goes on and on. I trust most science but when it comes to government approved science and pharmaceutical science I have every right to be a skeptic and anyone with any common sense would do the same. The whole “Trust the science” line is purely, intentional propaganda for profit and control. Why so many sheep willingly trust the wolves is beyond me.

        That’s exactly how it should be categorized…. bought science.

        Bought science has a master that holds the strings.

        The master of true science is curiosity. The only strings to it are the hypothesis, tests and results of those who dare to be curious. Even they admit they get it wrong sometimes or answers are limited by their testing capabilities.

        One other category of science I suppose is vanity science. Those who only seek acclaim will present faux science as fact just as easily those that are bought. Both are equally dangerous to society and a scourge to the art of science.

        I have long said, “Follow the money.” If you want to understand the “why” behind things, follow the money and that will lead you to the motives and the truth behind it.

      100% Agree! Bought Science is the new thing, fake is the new real and we are living in what I call “The Dis-Information Age”. Where whoever says “It” first, enough times, or convincingly enough, is believed and The Mob shoots first and asks questions later.

      Agreed fully. 😁

      Think the green movement is any different? I have worked for years with defective green policies that were supposed to help people and save energy but turns out do the exact opposite. However, it does favor higher prices and usually helps one manufacturer get a larger market share over another. “The power of pull” is what Ayn Rand would say. When you ask people in the bureaucracy to change some small part of their policy, they take longer to address an issue then most real-world projects could survive, and they complicate the issues so the people that wrote the policy can maintain status quo and not offend anyone (due to their own lack of foresight or incompetence).

      Large companies are no better. I presented ideas that would take under a week to implement and was based on pure math (not subjective opinion) that where never even seriously looked at. They would have saved the company millions and saved materials, energy and labor in the process. Large companies favor status quo more than innovation. One gets hammered if they do not do their work….or they do it too well. It is a sad state of things we are in. It likely will not get any better anytime soon.

    I love how the origins of the Disney Cartoon “The Secret of NIMH” (National Institute for Mental Health) come from the mouse utopia experiments.
