Here in Oklahoma we've got a highway patrol who pulled over an ambulance on its way to the hospital for not yielding to his lights. Then he proceeds to put the ambulance driver in a choke hold while the patient is waiting in the back of the ambulance.

I like the approach Laibach took with fighting totalitarianism....they embraced it! Their music, stage shows, and art movement were all based on blatantly demonstrating authoritarian memes to expose the real thing operating in their society.

I'd love to do a project sometime that blatantly worships the corporate police state.

It helps us to hide reality.

It's all orchestrated by the CIA from their secret alien bunker. It's clear to me the guy in the video is an alien, the cops knew this. The aliens also don't like snow. Not at all.

Did Iraq really happen? It was all staged in a studio in Hollywood. The same one they used for the moon landings and shit.

Martin Luther King was a hologram. Black people aren't real. They were just put there by the government to keep you in check. With their own special language and musics and shit.

Gonna get me some gunz.

This would be funny, but its precisely stuff like this that makes people so fucking dismissive of anything that may endanger their lives. It may not be intentional but when you marginalize people who are trying to get information out by making a joke about it your actually indirectly leading to the downfall of society. Sorry to be a dick.
