Boneless bureaucrats is a derogatory term used to describe officials who do the bidding of their political masters in full knowledge that what is happening is wrong/corrupt yet they do nothing to stop it.

Placate destroy is interesting combination of words. There is an old adage that goes - "you don't placate your enemies you destroy them". However in the above case I don't think this is the intended meaning.

It may mean that in order to placate one group you must destroy the lives of another. Or that if you placate a group you 'destroy' their will to revolt.

Another reference to children of the comfort cage and the treadmill metaphor. The word generation has a superscript 's' implying a much higher number of generations.

Weapons of mass consumption is a play on the phrase weapons of mass destruction. It is used to describe people/society chasing the emotional highs of consumerism and, once becoming used to it, start to chase after more. There's never enough and there's always the next new thing to consume. This has been described as the hedonic treadmill.

The inference here is that MIDA believes that this is how people are being controlled.

The text reads:

The image on this page will be used again in an important Tweet by MIDA.

The text is another version of the themes expressed above. Don't think, conform. The endless cycle of consume, work, consume. Everyone is happy. Be happy. Don't think, conform.

These themes are similar to those used in the 1971 American science fiction film THX 1138, co-written and directed by George Lucas in his directorial debut.

The film depicts a totalitarian future where emotions are suppressed by drugs and people are treated as commodities. A high level of control is exerted upon the populace through constant surveillance and the ever-present faceless android police. The state-sanctioned deity OMM 0000 takes confessions and offers blessings:
"Let us be thankful we have commerce. Buy more. Buy more now. Buy more and be happy."
and
"Let us be thankful we have an occupation to fill. Work hard; increase production; prevent accidents, and be happy."

The text on this page repeats some of the imaginary on previous pages. People/puppets under constant surveillance by the authorities. But they can't see everybody.

The last line is in two parts the original text can't find us all and the alternative text can't fight us all.
