Things Are Shitty Because We Are Ruled By People Who Want Things To Be Shitty

from JOHNSTONE · host Caitlin Johnstone and Tim Foley

Our rulers want us to be stupid, misinformed, distracted, sick, struggling and suffering, because if we all had enough time, information and mental acuity to form an understanding what’s going on in our world, things would get mighty guillotiney real quick. They have a vested existential interest in keeping us all in a mental fog of propaganda, diversion, ignorance, illiteracy, and psychological dysfunction. Reading by Tim Foley.
