In order for civilization to maintain its power over the masses, the masses’ acquiescence has to be continually groomed. Whips and maces are no longer fashionable. Instead we have propaganda and distraction (and the two are not mutually exclusive in a consumer-based system). Iron-age slaves would never be allowed access to whips and maces. Likewise, information-age slaves are not allowed to wield the tools of the propagandists.
So now it is illegal to videotape animal abuse at factory farms and slaughterhouses in Iowa.
