Think, Errol, think!

What has the US media been so focused on in the past few decades?

Ideas? They have none to offer. It's all recycled and presented as 'new.'

Facts? No, people might decide to draw their own conclusion from them - can't allow that! People have to be told what to think!

How do you achieve that? By narrowing the field to 2 opposing propositions and focusing only on those two propositions.

Throw in "free speech" so people can hate each other at will, speak that hatred aplenty, and divide a mass that becomes powerless to address the real problems because its conditioned not to.

Media is a government tool to separate the crowd - divide and conquer - as both government and media dwell on sensationalism and controversy, because both ultimately need to please the major corporations they depend on to exist and which turn us into comsummers instead of citizens because we do need to consume to survive, don't we?

Playing on our lowest instincts works, even if we all share them, but it's so easy to separate us all based on trivial differences and false debates which we believe appeal to our reason while they only serve to rid us of our humanity!

We are weak, we are sheep, sheep made to eat the grass in one of two separate barnyards, thinking the farmer who feeds the barn we live in is better than the farmer who feeds the other barn.

Yet, we all eat the same food. From the same barn - Comes from the same fields and land. I reckon we could be fed poison from our owner, and we'd still not jump the fence to the other barn.

Sheep do not think, they only serve and submit.

I wish I could say we were more than that.

We're not.

So we deserve to be 'shaved naked' as much as sheep do, left with nothing, to only be submitted to our owners.

Why change? We have agreed with this, we have allowed ourselves to be condtioned this way, for so long...

It's the one thing we do well - Might as well keep it, right?

Right...
