How long do they keep them that way?
Flags still half-mast, why?

There is nothing wrong with showing respect to Reagan, the man served his country well. But that bullshit that "supposed" to be respect was just another gross overplay that makes a mockery out of "state funerals".
No doubt there was good reason to have a media frenzy that exceeded any "state funeral" - ever. Some call it "obvious distraction" with a touch of patriotic mass deception.. sad shit.XXX TLD's - Another mosquito to swat.Comment

Half MAST. "Half mass" would be a flag 50% of the size as the one you were referring to.Originally posted by cosis
what did they do when Nixson died???
When N-i-x-o-n died, the government lied about the date of the funeral and then tried to coverup the details of the funeral arrangements.

Your question is kinda like the old story of the weirdo on the bus.

That's the delusion I've created for myself, pretending when I see these flags at half mast that we're actually honoring someone who did something positive for mankind and our country.Comment

Then why did you post it?Originally posted by Colin
I don't think that.
I commented about the masses being blinded by stupidity and you replied with:
"Wlo are "the masses"? All the people who disagree with us?"
This implies that you are suggesting that people who disagree with "us" are stupid. I'm not the one who narrowed it down to people who disagree....You are.
Do you disagree with this?Last edited by AaronM; 06-20-2004, 10:49 AM.Comment

Mmmm .. You gotta build up some "case" (any old lies and bullshit will do), with a touch of "hatred" to anger the masses and create an "enemy". Follow that up with a dose of "deviant reality", pull the patriotism strings and they will not be pissed and love ya for it! Sound like transparent manipulation?Careful...Reality seems to piss off the masses.
Goebels was a master at it...

Yes, I disagree. Most of the time people use the term "the masses" to refer to the large group of people who disagree with them. Usually "the masses" are considered to be the large, ignorant group of rabble who have an opinion different than "I" who somehow haven't the intellect to be influenced by the same writings and philosophies as "we". Moreover, "the masses" usually don't have access to the same information as "I" and are probably "victims of propaganda" or alternatively have been "brainwashed" - sometimes both.Originally posted by AaronM

I don't actually use the term myself - other than this thread, of course.

I bet young George would LOVE to keep the flags at half mast for a year if he could - or at least till after election time
Mmm.. Who else can die so we can have another state funeral with comprehensive media coverage of every stage including the embalming??
