classic good vs evil dichotomy . the brainwashing thru mass media had some very early beginnings . The Wizard of Oz Release date : August 25, 1939 . there is no dialectic here. no analysis . just hooray for our side and you are either with us or against us . remember that when the wicked witch of the west died her flying monkeys starved to death in a matter of a few weeks. her guardsmen were now unemployed ronin. they raided and or enslaved outlying villages for food and more . with dorothy gone back to kansas. glinda the good witch of the north did not care about anyone but herself . remember that she put the ruby slippers on to dorothy's feet with out dorothy's foreknowledge or consent . this painted a target to dorothy's back . i wonder how she is supposed to be the "good witch" after doing that .

I am glad I am too stupid to make such profound observations.... I just liked her so much cause she was a dynamic and alive and creative kind of a person.... ANd the acting was so good....

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: i liked her because in real life the "good guys" aren't really so good anf the "bad guys" sometimes are not all that bad . the WWW knew how to take care of business . Glinda on the otherhand never even warned Dorothy about the Wizard of OZ being a con artist . ( just like most authoritarian power figures ) Glinda exploited the homeless castaway new girl Dorothy. She used Dorothy to eliminate the only remaining witch in OZ . once that was done the Wizard of OZ was exposed as a conman and circus magician this left Glinda as the only power figure left in OZ . Dorothy goes back to Kansas and the Wizard has lost his power to public opinion . i would say that Dorothy and her small band of misfits were exploited by the " Good Witch of the North". Glinda was the only real winner in this situation.

@Leader_Desslok: Yeah I guess we all growing seeing the world in different ways for different reasons and these observations and thought patterns become habitual and hard wired in.... I notice that a lot of people are tuned into things that I kind of skim over and miss.... I wish I had some flying monkeys....

I mean Glanda the Good Witch - as a person or as an actor, well the actor bit, she actually seems like a real cunt - the "nice guy" is a kniving slick manipulator.
