i mean what can you say to that ....... ya its fucked up that they would go to such extremes but its not like none of the other governments do the samething to its civilians and its not like its not done all the time in remakes in history books and from the one sided views of all news groups that seem to only show onesided views half the times....... its not really being able to call it censorship but more of anything from all that i spoke on ... that its a form of brainwashing , getting to grow them up to only know one way and thats your way
