Gary Webb was one of many who have paid dearly for writing about this topic. Michael Ruppert comes to mind. Danny Casolaro would describe it as another tentacle of the octopus.

Hollywood has been calling us hillbillies for a long time.
did you know Goober and Gomer were cousins and that Opie is coming to town to make a movie about us?
Jim Varney played Earnest P. Worrell instead of Shakespeare to make a living.
defeating us means twisting our self image into backward incompetent shells of self loathing instead of what we truly are: some of the most inventive, industrious people on the planet. that's what makes us a threat.
the British waged war on China with opium with a similar effectiveness. they eventually walked in, destroyed the Chinese royal palace and stole their silver back.

instead, our schools are incredibly efficient at extruding one generation after another of incurious dolts and dependent dregs.

Excellent points, sounds like part of a great demoralization effort to bring us down from the inside. Thank you, I may reference this comment in a later piece if that's okay.
by all means, be my guest. my comments are yours now.
