Terror Propaganda Created To Fit State Agenda

That was more or less how the fascist regime in Portugal worked, from the common person everything was fine: there was no crime and all suicides were "accidents with a hunting gun".

The media only published good news about the country and only a few bad about other countries, they usually just ignored them. The state censorship took care of the rest.

It was also how Renaissance Spain worked as well. As long as the royals were fat and happy, the hell with the peasants. Even though that predates Trotsky (as mentioned above), what Trotsky brought to the table and makes him the issue was his political philosophy and writings brought this elitism thinking to the masses to follow and while before it was just a blindly followed "us vs them". I mean it still is, but there are more followers of "them" that should have stayed "us".

He was doing a story about terrorists targeting internet communications. I explained that it was actually metal thieves that had pulled down the fiber optic line, thinking it was copper. Their metal processing camp was 100 feet away, littered with scrap, human feces and hypodermic needles. The old dirty rope that was used to pull down the line had lain in that field for years. It became a huge national news story about terrorism, and the local interagency terrorism task force along with the FBI were investigating. Pundits in the national press pontificated about the unknown group responsible. I did casually explain my knowledge of the event to a local sheriffs deputy, but there was no interest, and I never got a response.

What I get from that is that ArMap is implying that it's the news reporters that are exaggerating, and not you.
