I don't know about you, but I found that to be kind of creepy. I mean,
sure, organic gardens are the way to go, but the whole "child propaganda"
concept is a bit frightening, even if it is well intentioned.


Obviously it's been a long time since you saw the early episodes of Sesame
Street.

Sort of reminds me of those kindergarteners and their political singing,
something else which was rather creepy.


One man's 'political singing' is another man's 'hegemony'.
