How can you make a convincing case for your hip leftist politics when you're obsessed by nursery-rhyme pop music--egalitarian on the surface but like the Hollywood movie industry a club exclusively for the kids of rich MIC families--that was invented and pushed by tyrannical elites to "touch the hearts" of the masses and zombify them as egotistical, daydreaming controlled opposition?
