Bonus Episode: Controlled Opposition & the Exploitation of "Useful Idiots"

"In political jargon, a useful idiot is a term currently used to reference a person perceived as propagandizing for a cause—particularly a bad cause originating from a devious, ruthless source—without fully comprehending the cause's goals, and who is cynically being used by the cause's leaders. The term was often used during the Cold War to describe non-communists regarded as susceptible to communist propaganda and manipulation." -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot

"Give the public the false illusion of choice by presenting a political party or organization that superficially speaks to the desires or frustrations of the people but whose actions do not further the stated goals of the organization." -https://www.facebook.com/reform2025/photos/a.1098774270262629/1669867339819983/?type=3
