people are so weird about this stuff.. even a bunch of professional magazine
writers missed a pretty obvious thing.
if you think it's propoganda, and you know that the characters in the show would
specifically prefer to spread that sort of propoganda, and then they say things
that a person who works in the oil industry would.. why are you surprised?
several spent a LOT of time nitpicking the things people said in the show like
"THIS IS WRONG! LOOK AT THIS RESEARCH!" ..
yeah sure buddy. whether it is or not, imagine the main character saying "well
damn guys i think wind energy would be better, but i guess we're stuck with
this.." over and over
it's just silly.
