Theodore Dalrymple once said that the point of Soviet propaganda was not to inform, or even indoctrinate, but to humiliate.

“as impervious to outside forces as a neutron star.” Love that – and the rest of it too.
The Lexington CBS affiliate, just posted a poll on Facebook, do you believe there will be civil unrest after this election. Stir the pot journalism.
