I totally understand what you are saying here Patriot, (OP). All that stuff was reported by "the news" and "the papers" back then. Pretty much all we had and people were already on the streets protesting the Vietnam "police action". Peace and love and drugs and rock and roll and, well you get my point. NOW, we have the internet and for better or worse, it makes the comparison somewhat less applicable. HOWEVER, your point about enough people getting the info and caring enough about it to become more informed to the point of even being passively active is spot on. You either hammer it in with constant repetition or have something REALLY BIG!!. So big it is unforgettable. Even then you get one shot and would need to be kept simple to understand by the masses..., and that is for only ONE topic/subject. This stuff is complicated and massive, (think rabbit hole). It will take some skill to pull it off. Hopefully our guys are as smart as we want to give them credit as being. I pray they may be even smarter than we can even imagine.
