I think with any right-wing extremist (White Supremicists, Taliban,
Religious right,Asian traditionalists, etc.) group they can easily
target the USA for it's "gluttonous consumption" and glitzy free-form
excesses...(some of these to a foreigner might be offensive)...but
good in the name of advertising,humor and attention-getting.
In the name of freedom, some thought has to be given to introspection
and to what extend do we shove this "psychographic" thing down
people's throats. Who knows who is watching the "western-thought
directed", commercials on the satellite dish in the desert somewhere
and how much of this "imagery" is reality--media is it really true or
believable to the untrained eye.. sometimes yes...Psychographics=the
dream of ownership,fantasy that fuels the advertising world... How
far do you go to sell product?
This is how a strange form of ignorance is manifest.
Some thoughts, not on forgiveness, but introspection about freedoms
and those who dictate it.
