The mind is a weird place.
I feel that today, i should be jumping for joy, knowing that Boris has finally resigned, unable to cause more damage to the country, but instead of feeling jubilant, I feel completely numb.
As someone who follows politics closely, and being a person who is quite outspoken about current events, I've got to the point, where I wish I could become completely ignorant and blind to the new norms that exist in the world.
In todays world, and particularly highlighted within the world of politics, it's becoming increasing obvious, and evident, that we are now entering a new phase in our supposed evolution, and are about to be consumed by a new world order.
This is a place where aristocracy, oligarchy, corporations, and the capitalist system, are in direct conflict, with, an informed working/middle class and 'perceptive' people, trade unions, independent media companies, and activists who are witnessing the world, disappearing into a void, consumed by negative energy.
The elites collective phyché is, with every day, becoming evermore right wing, sadistic, and cruel, polticians, corporations and media organisations are collaborating, in lock-step with each other, to eliminate our rights, while extinguishing all potential threats in advance.
This advanced plot began, as i have stated for years, with the data harvesting of all of our digital information, tracking our movements, finances, iinterests, likes and dislikes, and most importantly, discovering what induces joy or rage within people, and how that can cause someone to act.
Events such as terrorist attacks, civil unrest, industrial action, protest or activism, causes disruption in the major markets, in real-time, and during these times, fortunes can be made and lost.
Corporations are making, year on year record breaking profits, while the gap between rich and poor is widening at an alarming rate.
Govenments across the world are leaning more to the right than ever before. France was so close to electing a facist, Marine Le Pen, The U.S are allowing individual laws that ristrict and roll back human rights and womens rights laws, while allowing racist voting laws, geremandering, and are now taking up cases that will further violate peoples basic rights.
The Republicans who will cry if you make them wear a mask during a pandemic, causing an untold amount of needless extra deaths, who will never consider sensible and popular gun laws after daily mass shootings, because it violates their rights, yeah, those people want to control womens rights, under the premise that they are pro-life. Give me a break.
Then you have the democrats, who are completely inept, impotent, and incapable of passing any policies, who are bullied by the minority, and turn on progressives in their own party, who want to write laws that are overwhelmingly popular with voters.
They stand by while the ultra-conservative supreme court, which is supposed to be impartial, is all set to overturn years of president, with upcoming cases, fresh after dismantling Roe VS Wade.
Corporate interests and carefully crafted propaganda, are fracturing our society, creating divisions between all factions in society, that are drowning out anyone with good will and intentions.
The fact that people, will blindly follow, their political party or leaders, like lemmings eager to jump head first into the precipice, in reverance to their master is shocking to me.
It's crazy that when reading more and learning more about our corporations, that the outlook appears so bleak, and one could potentially lose all hope or perspective.
I don't know how so many things have been allowed to happen, and slip past the majority of people in the world. I think it's proof that years of data harvesting, has allowed the powerful elite, to inact their agendas with minimal resistance.
I believe the fight now, for the majority of society, is to become more aware of the erosion of rights, including your right to protest. You are becoming poorer by the day, and those industries that are levying these high costs against you, they're being subsidised and propped up by governments, and the government are being enabled by a selectively blind, and scared media, who are beholding to their billionaire bosses.
I hope on day's like today, where one dangerous man is removed from the political sphere, we can only hope that good prevails, and people stand up, before we are no more than compliant victims, with stockholm syndrome, working just to serve our abusers.
