Don't say a word, keep your eyes focused directly in front of you or on the ground
Swallow the daily dosage of the sculpted narrative with a glass of water
And always remember truth is ambiguous and in the eye of the beholder
Giant opinions from giant media presented as objective facts
Independent journalists for whom the truth still matters presented as cranks and shills
Keep your propaganda handy, easily linked to and easily dispensed by the inch or the foot
Your fake news talks about a world free from empire and the military is always right
Your real news comes in corporate press releases
The term "corporation" includes the military and intelligence agencies
Your fake news tells us insane fanatics are freedom fighters
Corrupt careerists are change agents
Repressive regimes are valuable allies
My real news is about the American distraction agenda
The garbage culture, meaningless political campaigns
The party line in strict compliance - like the Soviet Union in Cold War discipline
"We are a free country and everything is fine"
