It's doing exactly what it was meant to do. It'll reduce pension and disability payments massively. Re-elect Trump and Johnson. Hand over Hungary to it's dictator and the rest of the world (those who cannot see behind the lies) are sat steadily at the heels of their masters looking up for a ball to be thrown or a treat given.
Technology whilst putting I Pads and a world of information in the hands of 3 year olds has had a hugely detrimental effect on the faculties of humanity to make cognative decisions based on easily obtainable and obvious information.
The last two generations have grown up blinkered to sensibilities and has no awareness of the world in general. The older generation (us) has grown used to a lack of vigour in our politics and our own situation as a whole.
We really don't matter though. Not a penny of care or even marketing is aimed at us. We might as well be dead which, if we don't scream out the hypocracy been flaunted in such a vile fashion and do something about it, we may as well be.
I never thought I'd live to see 1984 being played out in such a grandoise way. Point is though. If even I could re-connect with my radical buddies from my past, those who aren't dead will likely be medicated to the point where they are fooled too.
If I didn't think I'd be dissapeared and the news footage would magically vanish I'd be more than happy to do a one man march right the way up to Downing St, throw my own shit at the windows and chain myself to the gates.
I fear for my kids futures.
Good Gods, I actually read your scroll bomb, tommie, and I have to say I kind of agree on every relevant point. The global human herd has needed a good culling for a while now, seeing as how we haven't had a good war or massive famine since we white people settled our scores at the end of the last global war and decided to vent off our excess energies by encouraging and feeding the inferior third worlders.
Plus, I agree about the last two gens of younglings brought up in the click bait digital world. I can't imagine how these people would react should the internets zap out tomorrow.
