Just plain tired!

There are so many issues going on in the world today.  This fact can be realized by many people but not by all.  It seems as though some people, consider powerful or not, have a delusion of the world.  These people believe that all others are just dumb, simple, or just simply “won’t get it” if those people were told the truth.

 So here is the truth.  If you are not a political insider, you classify as one of those people who just “won’t get it” and you will probably never see the day that you are told the truth.  Yes this sounds like a riddle and it really is when it comes to the politics of the world.  When political insiders communicate through the media, that communication is not the real story, it’s just a propaganda driven narrative to keep the “simple” people in order.  This sounds harsh and extremist but unfortunately it is the fact of the matter.

 For example, Russia could care less about “helping” the breakaway regions in Georgia.  What Russia does care about it is regaining a status of a super power, only this time around with energy and not weapons.  The sad truth is that Russia can now hold the EU, the US, and the rest of the world hostage over energy and not the fear of nuclear war.  The narrative is that Russia is mad about the US putting weapons in Poland, whether they are consider defensive or offensive.  True, Russia is probably not thrilled at the notion, but the truth is that Russia and the US will not conduct negotiations through the media or publicly.  If this were to happen, one side would have to be the winner and the other side would be the loser in the eyes of each respective countries people.  So instead, a narrative is developed to help each respective country look like a winner to their people.  The real negotiations have already been sorted out behind closed doors.

 So the next time you are reading that blog, watching that TV show, or listening to your radio, remember most of us are all just “simple” and do “get it” when we are told the truth.  So are you tired of being treated like this?  Do something about it, run for office or vote differently at the next election.
