As individuals looking out on the world as it is today, it is all too easy to believe that it is only us – and the few people around us we talk to – who see everything that is wrong in the world around us. It is easy to think we are alone when it comes to questioning the narratives and stories of injustice that we continually hear.
What we all need to realise and understand, is this is a very long way from being the case.
It is the way that the world currently works around us that has led to our view of the world and the perceptions that we have of it leading us to see things this way.
We are surrounded by a constant flow of information, coming at us from each and every direction in this information technology age.
Like an abusive partner, It tells us and then repeatedly confirms to us – that the narratives which override our own common sense and what our instincts tell us are what we should believe.
This is how propaganda, false narratives, half truths and outright lies are able to thrive, continue to exist and become the accepted truth.
But Bullshit really does have its own sound.
The sources and perpetrators of the lies that have made life so unbearable for so many, in so many different ways – whilst all the time suggesting that we are alone and the only ones who think that way or even worse – are in the process of being uncovered and shown to us all for what they really are.
Keep watching, and you will soon see.
