    CIA infiltration of society and propaganda control

    "Didn't the CIA boast, way back in the 1970s, that they had successfully infiltrated every major media organisation in the USA? Do you really think they wouldn't have infiltrated the FCC as well?

    And twenty, thirty, forty years later, after Reagan, after ex-CIA head Bush 41, and after 8 years of his idiot son, after FAUX News and all the rest, do you really think they haven't fully infiltrated US media everywhere?

    -- gandhi"

    I've suspected all along that I've been blacklisted at Marvel and DC Comics due to such infiltration.
