Escape The Narratives

It doesn't matter,
If the news you read is based on fact or not.
As Marshall McLuhan said,
"The medium is the message"
Can't you see what their aim is?

Left or right, right or wrong,
the information only comes second,
to the intent and meaning of their sickly, siren songs.

They don't care about informing,
or even misinforming the masses,
they seek only to imbue you with uncertainty.
So they can continue without warning
 
So they continue,
to imbue you,
With hopelessness,
with fear,
with sorrow,
with powerlessness.
 
They have been perfecting their dark arts,
for centuries,
but since the days of
Edward Louis Bernays,
Their power and craft,
has increased tenfold.

It is important to be informed,
but as Voltaire said,
"One must tend one's own garden"
we let our gardens wither and die,
clutching our throats,
crying, praying, cursing the sky,
While our lives pass us by.

Take your power back,
reclaim your life.
Authentically perceive
your abilities of sight.

If something truly evokes the fire within,
but it is beyond your reach,
then you must rearrange your life,
So you can be in range to compete,

But keep in mind, as Buckminster Fuller said,“You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model
that makes the existing model obsolete.”
and as Mckenna said, "The idea is not to confront bad ideas
 but to come up with good ideas. 
Otherwise, your enemies define the game 
and you are eternally the loyal opposition."
