    Huh, I see ads and banners and signs all the time. I guess I should have guessed the only non-governmental propaganda machines that big are religious cults.

      Don’t forget that Falun Gong, the religious cult behind Shen-Yun, also bankrolls the Epoch Times.

        There was a time when I wanted to see that show. I didn’t know it was backed by Falun Gong and considered complete propoganda until I saw the Half As Interesting video on YouTube about it. I never did see it but it’s sad to say they dump loads of money into marketing that live show and the marketing works.

          I didn’t find out until after I had gone to see it. I thought it was just ballet, but they had some WEIRD segments like the opera about atheism or the organ harvesting dance number.
