US Gestapo.
Don't be too hard on generation X as you call it. If you read some of the comments made by Thomas Merton, about propaganda, he was talking about his 'home land',pun intended, 'Propaganda makes up our mind for us, yet we continue to think we are free......'. He was frustrated at the mindless society, around him back then. But in spite of all this, the public brought about a change, and ended the madness and murder. There was a larger body count of US soldiers then, a great number of deaths in the Vietnam region, carpet bombing of Cambodia, but it was US war dead I think that was the catalyst. 
Are the spin doctors better now than then, I do not know, it is amazing how folk just let the US bludgeon the World as it pleases but the likes of Merton understood. Clearly the US is sliding into Fascism, when people start to stare and do nothing when brutality is administered by goonish rent a thug, (I mean cop). 
There are ways to fight thuggish regimes, because that is the US today. I think it was in Argentina that women danced with the dead. The US has made plenty of dead, we can all have a partner and dance.
