    Scenes envisaged include one in San Francisco, where the immigrants are sent down a mine to collect the most gold

    In Cape Canaveral, Florida, the hub of NASA, contestants would rush to build and launch a rocket.

    In Hayward, Wisconsin, they’d struggle to keep their balance on logs.

    God damn, being true… I consider myself quite the imaginative and creative person, but these folks have me beat.

    Still, props to these people - if they applied all this creativity and effort for good instead of evil, we’d already be living in an utopia, there wouldn’t be hunger or poverty in the world, I dare say. Instead we’re gliding down into dystopia.

    Just when you think we’ve hit rock bottom they’ll yet again prove you wrong - as they say, “where there’s a will, there’s a way”, especially for evil.

    FOREIGNERS OUT! SCHLINGENSIEFS CONTAINER

    Satirising reality TV shows, “Big Brother” especially, a dozen asylum seekers were surveilled by a multitude of cameras, could be fed and watched by passer-by’s and two were thrown out of the country through web-voting. The way fascism looks in the 21st century: Bright. Sensational. Interactive. Funny - and frightening.

      It’ll be funny and poetic until we all get to watch a contestant die for the first time during a prime time live event … and the crowd roars and the ratings go through the roof as everyone realizes … the gladiatorial games to the death have returned … and this time we can stream it!!!

    Of course the admin supports dehumanizing people for entertainment. How about reducing prices on something. Like bread.
