THEY ALWAYS HIDE THE TRUTH IN THE MOVIES

The term “Bread and circuses” derived from the Roman era. It was used to describe how politicians maintained public approval through distraction.
Ancient Rome socially engineered its citizens with free food and entertainment. To keep the people satisfied and unquestioning of the government, emperors provided free bread and daily entertainment (circus) to maintain the compliance of the people. It kept them preoccupied so they’ll never revolt, does this sound familiar?
