One potential positive from the whole
Covid-19 debacle is that we have
learned an incredible amount about the society in which we live.
This will be crucial if we manage to stave off a descent into a
nightmare future of techno-fascist slavery.
We will have a new understanding of what our world has become and
what we would like it to be in the decades and centuries to come.
And "we" means
we...
While the majority have,
apparently, learnt nothing at all from what has happened, they will
eventually catch up.
There is no way that knowledge gained by a wide-awake 15% or 20% of
the population will not end up being shared by almost everyone.
Once the truth is
out, it tends to stay out.
As
H.R. Haldeman so wisely put it,
"you can't put the
toothpaste back in the tube".
Here are Ten
Things We Have Learned During the Covid Coup
-
Our political
system is hopelessly corrupt.
Virtually all
politicians are hopelessly corrupt. No political party can
be trusted. They all can be, and have been, bought.
-
Democracy
is a sham.
It has been a
sham for a very long time. There will never be any real
democracy when money and power amount to the same thing.
-
The system
will stop at nothing to hold on to its power and, if
possible, increase its levels of control and
exploitation.
It has no
scruples. No lie is too outrageous, no hypocrisy too
nauseating, no human sacrifice too great.
-
So-called
radical movements are usually nothing of the sort.
From whatever
direction they claim to attack the system, they are just
pretending to do so, and serve to channel discontent in
directions which are harmless to the power clique and even
useful to its agendas.
-
Any "dissident"
voice you have ever heard of through corporate media
is probably a fake.
The system does
not hand out free publicity to its actual enemies.
-
Most people
in our society are cowards.
They will
jettison all the fine values and principles which they have
been loudly boasting about all their lives merely to avoid
the slightest chance of public criticism, inconvenience or
even minor financial loss.
-
The
mainstream media is
nothing but a propaganda machine for the system and those
journalists who work for it have sold their sorry souls,
placing their (often minimal) writing skills entirely at the
disposition of Power.
-
Police are
not 'servants of the public' but servants of a powerful and
extremely wealthy minority which seeks to control and
exploit the public for its own narrow and greedy interests.
-
Scientists
cannot be trusted.
They will use the
hypnotic power of their white coats and authoritative status
for the benefit of whoever funds their work and lifestyle.
He who pays the
piper calls the tune.
-
Progress
is a misleading illusion.
The "progress" of
increasing automatization and industrialization does not go
hand in hand with a progress in the quality of human life,
but in fact will "progressively" reduce it to the point of
complete extinction.
