The new season of 24, that is to air this coming weekend, is to prepare the American people for the idea of concentration camps, detention centers and the rounding up of people in times of crisis.

The opener depicts an America besieged by mass terrorist attacks and public paranoia, with 11 cities, including New York, Atlanta, San Antonio and L.A., having been attacked in the space of a few weeks. Watch it:

A Fox news broadcast pumps out on street corners and at bus stops from TV screens as the terrified public are urged to report anyone they consider suspicious.

A brown skinned man is refused entry onto a bus as the people around him look at him as if he is some kind of space alien.

Cut to the Oval Office were there is an argument going on between the National Security Advisor and the President's aides about the morality and constitutional implications of using concentration camps/detention centers in America.

The National Security Advisor, who the President's aides are surprised to find is opposed to this, states "These places that you keep building, they are nothing more than concentration camps."

Note how the Security Advisor states that camps are already built and keep being built. She goes on to state that a "revised plan" on behalf of the White House "justifies locking up every American who prays towards Mecca."

read/watch more at the link. early last year, halliburton was given a $385 million dollar contract from the gov't to build detention facilities. are the people at 24 pre-conditioning the public to accept their use? i couldn't imagine anyone at fox would deal in propaganda..

    24 is partially funded by the republican party, isn't it?

    Dude the show's so fake anyway, you know america won't have no black president.

    I never tune into the show when it's on. but a friend started to rave about it the other day. something about it being the best show on television, then he put a few episodes on, i gotta say, it's not the worst show around. but of course not the best.

    "A brown skinned man is refused entry onto a bus as the people around him look at him as if he is some kind of space alien"

    That was kinda a funny scene.

    lost is clearly the best show on tv, and that's just fact.

    i think it's funny...this propoganda talk. reading some of the posts on the first page...my God, i'm guessing that most recent posters here think that having an american flag as a stamp is some xenophobic, nationalistic propoganda.

    for all the bullshit that us right wing whacko's have to put up with at the movies, comedy clubs, etc, deal with the fact that a popular tv show focuses on radical zealots, you pinko crybabies :)
    And you ask me what I want this year

    I agree. What the fuck are polar bears doing in the jungle?
    And they keep introducing new characters and stuff to spend time building characters for sub-plots. I think 'Lost' started out reallly good, but, they've bogged themselves down with Soap Opera-esque vignettes.

    I heard a theory they were stuck in purgatory....Not sure if a network would tackle that kind of angle though...

    dude, you are just being downright hateful now....

    the show has never been about some huge plot...it's about the characters!

    Buddy of mine at my new years party. Do you think they would play that angle? I mean it has to be supernatural reasoning at the very least.. Or just one big bad hallucination.

    Fine... then develop the characters and quit introducing more and more characters to fill out each one hour episode.
    'Lost' is the 'Twin Peaks' of the 2000s... weird shit happens for the sake of weirdness... not for progressing the over all plot line.

    no, to me, it's clear that they are in purgatory (sp?) the show is about redemption and everyone gets a chance to "start over."

    I think a lot of people have grown tired of the show b/c of the lack of plot...but i think it's a really interesting idea....and i usually hate tv shows, including 24...which is funny, since this is a 24 thread.

    it's just a matter of taste...i love personal stories...i love books, tv, movies that explore characters...plots just aren't that important to me....who was it who said "fuck the plot"? it might have been salinger :) I'm more interested in seeing how people take on the challenges presented to them...which is why I like the show.

    which is why salinger is the most over-rated and over-hyped writer of the last century...
