Classic word association

Have you seen the cover of Time Magazine? We believe this incident in Tuscon is going to be used as a tipping point for the further erosion of free speech rights and a continued attack on the second Amendment and the right to bear arms. The end result may not be final but it will provide continued erosion of our rights. This carefully designed magazine cover does classic word association. In this case, the words “guns” and “speech” are associated with “deranged.” It is not even subtle - but in your face. This is further compounded by the Svengali-like image of the shooter. This is the most widely circulated picture of Loughner since it makes him look like a total lunatic. So now, you get to associate free speech and guns with lunacy. When the winner of the Miss America pageant comes out and says safety is more important than the rights accorded us in the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights, then you know something is up. She should have been disqualified based on her answer to the politically motivated question she was asked. We do our part on No Agenda to deconstruct and re-evaluate common news items that are often planted or exploited in a massive effort to control the thought process of the American public to manipulate people into passive behavior and submission to authority. This trend is not a good one for a free society of creative individuals and is destructive to the future of the Nation. It only benefits the large corporations who prefer a docile population they can exploit. This is very obvious when you take a good look at the Time Magazine cover. It should frighten anyone who is paying attention. Help us continue the fight against this sort of media manipulation and public exploitation by supporting No Agenda during the coming year. If you are getting this note, you already support the show with your listenership, but we need more than that to continue this work. Think of the show as a never-ending book-on-tape. We provide 16-20 hours of solid content, entertainment and research a month. What we do is original and insightful in ways no other podcast can produce. We know how media works, how it manipulates. No team tears it apart the way we do. Help us continue in this effort by joining one of our contribution plans. Of course, we would love to see a celebration of the odd 11/11/11 date coming at the end of the year with new Knights in the 11/11/11 order. That is not easily affordable for everyone. Therefore, we would like to offertwo layaway subscriptions that will get you there anyway. The first is an $11.11 monthly subscription (click here)that everyone can afford. Also, consider an 11/11/11 Knighthood $111.11 layaway(click on link). This will get you an 11/11/11 Knighthood in 10 months and in time for 11/11/11. Anyone who has already given $111.11 can add that to their accounting andreach the goal in 9 months. In addition, and for everyone else, please go to the No Agenda donation page and subscribe or contribute to any of our programs and we will be deeply appreciative. We cannot do the show without you. We cannot thank you enough for your continued support. Sign up today. John C. Dvorak & Adam Curry PS. For those of you who hate Paypal, you can send your checks directly to the show.
