Adam Curtis @BBC:

   "We live in a strange time. Extraordinary events keep happening that
   undermine the stability of our world. Suicide bombs, waves of refugees,
   Donald Drumpf, Vladimir Putin, even Brexit. Yet those in control seem
   unable to deal with them, and no-one has any vision of a different or a
   better kind of future.
   This film will tell the story of how we got to this strange place. It
   is about how, over the past 40 years, politicians, financiers and
   technological utopians, rather than face up to the real complexities of
   the world, retreated. Instead, they constructed a simpler version of
   the world in order to hang on to power.
   And as this fake world grew, all of us went along with it, because the
   simplicity was reassuring..."

   article "The Baby and the Baathwater", regarding the US government's
   assisting the Baath Party to power in the Middle East at the end of
   World War Twice...
