The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post, “The Anti-Media Campaign Against Fascism“…

Rayn: ❤ I love it when I’m scrolling through my Facebook newsfeed, and see one of my un-propaganda posters making the rounds! 🙂

Sara: That’s so cool Rayn! 122 shares and countless comments! Your pics are going viral! WOOT WOOT!

Brooke N.: Rayn, did you do the graphic? That’s great!

Rayn: Thanks, Brooke. This is actually an old WWII poster that I edited and altered a bit. First, I meticulously erased the original pro-war, “buy defense bonds message” surrounding the graphic (while careful to retain the artwork underneath), then I chose my own special message – all to turn propaganda into un-propaganda! 🙂

Here is the original, created in 1941:

Doublethinking About Terrorism

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “The Anti-Media,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"Anytime a bomb is used to target civilians, it is an act of terror," [says the man who] bombs Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan, Iraq and Afghanistan

“Anytime a bomb is used to target civilians, it is an act of terror,” [says the man who] bombs Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan, Iraq and Afghanistan

My Commentary: Recently, child-bombing Nobel Peace Prize recipient, Barack Obama, was kind enough to define the highly confusing term, “terror,” for the American public. It’s a good thing we have such noble politicians like him to make things clear for us lowly commoners -taking time out of his very busy schedule just to help us double-think our way through the ever-nagging cognitive dissonance that comes from accepting civilian murders as a form of AMERICAN political policy, while simultaneously condemning the use of such tactics by others!

Thanks, lizard! Without your efforts, the public might be forced to rely on notoriously unreliable tools like common sense and critical thinking when considering serious matters like these!

“The nationalist not only does not disapprove of atrocities committed by his own side, but he has a remarkable capacity for not even hearing about them.” – George Orwell
