Nothing but paranoia here.
"Paranoid is another word for increased awareness"
Eerie.. *X-files intro song*
It's interesting that if you watch the X-Files and Babylon 5 they cover exactly this sort of thing albeit in a roundabout way.
They talk about the "war on terror" these days but there's a very good part in the X-Files at the beginning of series 4 where an agent describes how they weren't at war so they called it a war anyway (referring to the cold war).
B5 series 2 has the rise of Black Watch looking out for "negative thoughts" and sedition. This is for the good of everyone of course.
They might be called "Un-American" thoughts these days.
