The Linear Canvas

I am a little mad about the election having been stolen again. The theft was not necessarily from hacking or miscounting (but probably was), but from lies and half-truths. I think both political parties did some lying. The Republicans by far did it the most, they then disavowed the lies with a smirk, while never really denouncing the lies. Why do they need to lie? It is because the truth would make them very unpopular.

The mass media is controlled by the super rich, whose motives transcend liberal and conservative politics. They profit by the constant flow of news items from the war zone. They discovered war can do wonders for ratings in the first Iraq conflict.

This is all clearly about world domination. The super rich discovered through all of the wars they have caused before, that brief total war does not cause the weakening of society that is needed for world domination. What is needed, is a mean spirited divided world that could keep the skeptical on the defensive, totally incapacitating their ability to coordinate a strategy, by using smaller more unpopular wars like Iraq.

These events seem oddly familiar to me. Could the book “1984” have been the inspiration for the use of war to control the masses? Was this strategy known before the book came out? It sure brought the message to more people. Regardless of George Orwell’s intention, I believe the current crop of world leaders were inspired by the control that constant warfare can bring.

Damn you Orwell.
