There are many questions we could ask about our society and our way of life but perhaps the most important is: how could a millionaire reality star be handed the keys to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue? The answer is simple but the roots of that answer are as complex as the structure of the DNA molecule.
The answer is that the election of our current president is a last-ditch effort to save our democracy. The people watched in horror as a wooden example of ideological ventriloquism with a Cracker-Jack-box affirmative-action education was presented to the people as a color-coded representation of political correctness and an enlightened intellectual.
The fact that so many of the people bought the scam was especially distressing. It became clear that the political establishment of the United States was willing to sell out the people and solidify its privileged position by harvesting a confused, delusional population with no sense of history, essentially defenseless against the coming wave of globalization that eats democracies like a hungry shark.
We were all warned in school about ideologies founded on the evil principles of the end justifying the means where central planning is king, oppression is constant, personal liberty is non-existent and diversity of thought is a threat punished by exile, imprisonment and mass graves.
But the people are exposed to a ubiquitous flood of Walter-Durante-type fiction journalism masquerading as real news but functioning as government propaganda. Journalism in America has quietly and subversively shifted from the dissemination of actual information to a kind of “infotainment” mechanism that dulls the senses of the reader or viewer.
With vanishing skepticism and inquisitiveness it reduces the people to a cartoon audience stuffing their faces with cheese popcorn while the rug of their democracy is pulled out from under them. What Mao Zedong and Joseph Stalin failed to do with an iron fist the political establishment in the US is accomplishing by simply making the people so uninformed, misinformed and mal-informed that they won’t know what’s happening until it’s all over.
The people are running through the streets hitting each other with sticks, running each down with automobiles and tearing down statues. Putin is smiling as crazed mobs try to erase our history. Globalization is central planning on a planetary scale and the American political establishment gave in to it decades ago.
Our current president is our last chance to fight it.
