Yeah, but from the morbid (& historical) perspective it is kinda impressive tho, isn't it?
It's done differently and at a much much higher cost (& more constant maintenance) than in your average direct regime controlled counties.
Eg 70 years of cop shows & how they solve all crimes (and not just 0.2% of the 1% they even bother with), or how movies go though DoD for 'Murika superiority forever ~~check~~ rewrite, how Americans don't know the direct (much less indirect) dearth-toll they are producing year through year, how 3/4 of the world population hate you but you think they warship you, etc?
I especially like how a lot of openly available data is treated as 'conspiracy theories'.
If you didn't have any knowledge of it, there is no way you would believe such a thing is possible.
