PROPAGANDA UNDER THE CUT: [SPOILERS AHEAD]

C!SCOTT SMAJOR:

ADAM NEWMAN:

[oldshowbiz]

Peter C. Newman wrote scathing books about Canadian Prime Ministers John Diefenbaker and Lester B. Pearson in the 1960s, leaving both men looking like imbeciles.

Great books by a great writer whom most Canadians, I think, took for granted due to his ubiquitous over exposure in the media.

Colors swirling in the air like oil stains in a holographic puddle. They form shapes around one single golden orb, which is floating in the middle of the mistlike essence.

UNRELIABLE NARRATORS; SIDE C

Lloyd Allen Propaganda:

I'm genuinely not sure if this counts as unreliable but your honor, I love him. He's what is called a 'posthuman,' in his source, which is someone who can jump between narratives and change them by. Literally being a narrator. Specifically in the New Albion Radio Hour this is played with by him coaxing the main character (also a posthuman who isn't quite Aware of what she is) 'back into character' when she starts trying to break out of the story he wants to tell. Which is the entire destruction of the city New Albion. He eventually changes the plot to still be a tragedy, once that other posthuman starts meddling, but with her specifically being killed rather than the entire city falling. She still ends up defying it, though in the process her father and aunt die.

Josh Newman Propaganda:

well for one he's tricked into going against his sister and his narration supports this way of thinking. so yeah hes basically being manipulated for one whole book, and his narration reflects that. hes also death yeah can we talk about that
