Came across this on another site (cough) while on the commute.

I've seen clips before but this is much longer.

Watch 12:00 to 21:00 , this is 100% relevant today never mind 1958.



"“A man haunted by a vision of hell on earth. A searing social critic, Mr. Huxley 27 years ago wrote Brave New World, a novel that predicted that someday the entire world would live under a frightful dictatorship. Today Mr. Huxley says that his fictional world of horror is probably just around the corner for all of us.” ~Mike Wallace (1958)

Super interview. While our headline here emphasizes that brief pharmacological and propaganda topic, more he zeros in on the advertising industry. It's desire to install thoughts and wants in people below the threshold of consciousness and reason.
That while our statesmen of that time may not have been completely packaged by Madison Avenue wrappings, there was already the beginnings of presenting to the voting pubic a cleaned up and psychologically contrived image of those running for office. And though at that time it might still have been minimal, the hints at what it might become in the future were there for any who had the desire to look to see.

At the end of the interview he speaks out strongly against centralization. I"m pretty sure he would gag at what our two party system has become all the while nodding to himself saying ''I told you so''
