Are You Better Than Others?

Reading history, one can see there are many times scandals have brought down monarchies.  By the time the news hit the countryside, an opportunist was the new king.  This isn’t the case in Today’s system.  Power is distributed across a wide spectrum of people.  There are long lines of people waiting for their opportunity to ‘lead’ and ‘govern.’  They say they will be different, but such is never the case.  The office is not like the person occupying it. 

The media is used to distract instead of inform.  The media’s silence regarding President Roosevelt’s ailments is a great example of distraction.  Today’s media silence not questioning taboo subjects such as the third building that fell on 9/11/2001 is a modern example.  The previous consensus had to do with dignity in hiding an image of frailty and weakness… the latter could be the same purpose.

Top-Down Propaganda

One tool to conquer peoples and their lands is to propagate “superiority” by convincing one group of people how they’re better than others.  This is done through religion and political ideology.  In Roman times, it was the title of being a Roman Citizen which granted a civilized air of superiority and a promise to cease being labeled a ‘barbarian.’  Today, it is the dream of being an American Citizen.  A century ago, it was pride being a German and all others being inferior.

This is nothing new when looking at history’s story.  We simply see the same regurgitated teaching of propaganda that one type of people / tribe is greater than another people / tribe.  People believe it since it is written in glossy history books by scholars and professors of high notoriety.  People believe this because their favorite news station tells them. 

I wonder which kountry God would be a proud citizen of.
