The medium is not neutral； it shapes what it conveys.

And America, too, is a delusion, the grandest one of all. The white race believes—believes with all its heart—that it is their right to take the land. To kill Indians. Make war. Enslave their brothers. This nation shouldn’t exist, if there is any justice in the world, for its foundations are murder, theft, and cruelty.

激情是普遍的人性。没有它，宗教、历史、浪漫和艺术都将毫无用处。
