Propaganda

Propaganda is used to manipulate people
and it's at its very best and most successful,
when all of the many masses of gullible people
are convinced that they are acting upon their own free will.
* 
I'm somewhat paraphrasing Joseph Goebbels.
Even evil has knowledge that needs to be told,
because propaganda in America 
is running rampant in the multiples.
