The government controls all information and will stage mass shootings at the drop of a hat in order to play the populace like puppets

Yet the government cannot stop its own investigative bureau from publishing damning information about its own highest-placed members

Man, I wouldn't be surprised at any of those things in general. It'd be like, "Oh, it rained" or maybe "Oh, my idiot friend has said something dumb." Which is depressing, but there you go.

This is such a good way to describe that particular phenomenon. Like people who overcorrect "who" to "whom" in the incorrect context, or people who say "disinterested" to mean "uninterested." Fancy-sounding words but no understanding of how to use them.

In regards to that:

I can't read his use of "bemused" of anything but "amused" because it reads as if he's mockingly laughing at the response he knew he would receive. For someone so "educated", he really isn't very good at grammar.

And the "speak with affluence" thing made me crack up

Considering his malapropisms and word choice, the monocle is a barnacle and the airship is actually a sailboat
