Reading George Orwell: defending my country against its government!


Gentlemen: Have you ever considered that the "war" might not be real; it might be a way of infusing the population with fear, and a damn good excuse to graft as much taxpayer money as can be exacted, sort of like the forced quatering of soldiers in homes during the revolutionary war: consider the fact that all we know of this war is conveyed to us by television or what Plato calls in his "Republic" the "shadows on the wall": viewed in this way, the real goal of the war is to keep citizens in fear of being accused of being "terrorists" when in fact they only want to engage in a critical study of politics and an attempt to uncover the real foundations of the regime—crime and sedition! (consider some of my other posts). What really needs to occur is that we—all concerned citizens— should all ignore the collectivized–all owned by same companies, parroting the same messages, over and over—media and begin our own collective effort to understand with critical intelligence what is going on and how we can change it: Only this will give us a "fighting chance" against scandalous misuse of taxpayer money and the propagation of falsehoods, lies, propaganda, disinformation, misinformation—in a word: Tyranny!
