‘Michael Moore Hates America’
Metafilter tells of a film with above title made by some ignorant fuck called Michael Wilson. It reminds me of a quotation I saw the other day:
“The point of public relations slogans like ‘Support our troops’ is that they don’t mean anything… That’s the whole point of good propaganda. You want to create a slogan that nobody’s going to be against, and everybody’s going to be for. Nobody knows what it means, because it doesn’t mean anything. Its crucial value is that it diverts your attention from a question that does mean something: ‘Do you support our policy?’ That’s the one you’re not allowed to talk about.”
‘America’ as slogan then. But Chomsky hates America as well of course.
