through the projection screen.

For anyone not old enough to remember, Apple introduced the Mac (way back when) with a Super Bowl commercial with a Big Brother scene with a propaganda video and then a hero guy comes in and hurls a big sledge hammer at the screen.

In 1984, Big Brother told you whom to hate, and with whom we are at war.

It makes things simple.

Am I wrong? Pretty sure they are against their music being played at a dictator's rallies.

So much for law and order

Linkin Park have issued a cease and desist notice after Donald Trump retweeted a video featuring one of their songs.

The video, posted by the US President's social media advisor, has been removed.

The band Tweeted: "Linkin Park did not and does not endorse Trump, nor authorize his organization to use any of our music."

Adele, REM and Pharrell Williams have previously taken issue with Mr Trump using their music.

cabal establishment controlling all government (the enemy of the people) and they just look normal and nice while Trump is the creepy looking one.

Naturally, no one there is going to think, wait, Republicans controlled the senate for eight years of the Obama administration and all they did to "help the people" was try to kill the ACA and obstruct Obama. Then they had total control of the government and all they did was cut taxes for the rich. So, like, when did Trump fix everything and make America Great Again? Last month?

I saw some of a sci fi movie recently. Space aliens parked their spaceship in the ocean and had been watching tv, apparently a lot of war documentaries. They were so upset by all the violence and hate that they decided to exterminate humans from the planet with huge tsunamis. They stopped at the last minute because a member of an undersea rescue team texted his ex-wife (also a member) that he loved her. The aliens realized humans could love and recalled the tsunamis. But had this nutty Trump video been the last thing they saw, it would definitely be tsunami go time.
