Incremental Despotism: Losing Our Freedoms Small Steps at a Time
(The synergy between government, corporations and media leaves us powerless to discern news from propaganda. You thought we are about to transition into 2019? No my friends, we are living in 1984. #IncrementalDespotism)
In 1984 we were placed in a proverbial pot of water with the fire below us on low. As frogs in the water slowly cooking as the heat was gradually increased. Ignorant to the knowledge we are one day going to be the dinner for the oligarchy and those at the top who serve them. As slaves in the pot we have been starved and eating each other from within our bliss. Fattening the survivors to be the main course. What year does the water begin to boil for our ultimate dinner date for the insane?
(The Washington Post’s tagline is “Democracy Dies in the Dark”, this is not a warning as much as it is the mission statement of mainstream media.)
I highly suggest watching the Dore video Teodrose Fikre embeds in the article. As Dore perfectly breaks down the difference between a George town Professor and an Admiral on the ongoing Syria saga. While the professor provides a truth and the Admiral provides a narrative towards perception management ignoring truth. With the host leading the Admiral with a false narrative as they bring him into the discussion to get the discussion back on tract towards a corporate media agenda.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.The irony is that we implemented so many former Nazis into our government after world war 2 that eventually their ideologies would find there way into the fabric of our society and government.
But beyond that most people in this country are too caught up in the fight between the two political parties to see that they have systematically peeled away our freedoms and individual rights through these battles.
They just tell their side it’s either to protect them or it’s to harm the other side and everyone is like OK ??
But one day when we’re being told that we cannot leave our houses and we start seeing different segments of our society being removed. Then maybe those people will wake up and realize that they built their own prison.

All one needs to do is take a look at that history you mention. The Bush's support and ancestry of Germany. The Trump's also. So much of our politics and people. You're hitting the bulls eye everyone else is missing!
It's just another day to most people. Too many distractions and too much propaganda to realize what's going on. Not only that, but the propaganda has made people think this is all "right". Kids growing up in the future will think it's normal to be under the thumb of the establishment.

Fortunately our youth, outside of large areas of the south and rural America, they are fighting against the establishment politics. It is for them we must keep attempting to bring the truth to the sheep!
