Disturbing Radio Ad
I was driving to work yesterday morning, listening to KROQ as usual, when I hear an altogether amusing and disturbing ad on the radio that went something like:
Make a world of difference in your career with the National Clandestine Service at the Central Intelligence Agency
This blatant government propaganda frightens me. Are things so bad that the CIA needs to start recruiting over the airwaves? I know that, according to the application of Godwin’s Law, I lose my argument with this next statement, but doesn’t this sounds Nazi-ish? Actually, this little ad reminded me of the movie Starship Troopers. This movie was full of gung-ho, pro government, fight the bad guys, rhetoric. Of course, in the movie it was done for it’s comedic value, but this is real!
