Wow. Psychologically, that was very, very powerful. They wove in many manipulative tricks into that number. That there is Grade A brainwashing. I hate being torn between being impressed and apalled.

That describes the feeling wonderfully! Instead of hating it though, I find I'm somewhat fascinated (and disgusted) by the feeling. For the longest time the thought of getting into advertising crossed my mind. I was blown away by the fact that companies could lighten the colour of a product, label it "LIGHT!", and that hundreds of thousands of people would buy that product because of that single word; Most of those people never even considered questioning what "light" actually meant.
I bet you could put a label on a shirt that said "Low Carb" and it would be in great demand! :)
Joe and Jane Psychofundamentalist may not want to be related to monkeys, but that doesn't change the truth. Fundamentalists themselves are proof that we evolved from much more primitive beings--fundamentalists make it obvious that those primitive genes (and mindsets) exist in our society today.
