Aye. All those Talking Heads are just puppet-rigged cheerleaders trying to whip the masses into a feeding frenzy on behalf of the Little Men Behind the Curtain... but it's harder to whip the masses into anything when you are allowing them to starve beyond the ability to give a shit about what you are trying to get them to care about and believe in. If they don't start looking to the problems then are creating in our immediate vicinity, they are going to lose followers for the problems they are trying to create farther away.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
