In reply to the discussion: A Message From Us Rich Plutocrats To All You Little People [View all]the 'gods' (PTB) wanted Obama to remain in power so to keep the peons from erupting in massive social unrest? The thought has crossed my mind. Especially when I looked at the group they put together for the Repugnant Primary. What a bunch of losers!!!
I could never see the Xtian Fundies (the good foot soldiers of the repugs) going out and knocking on doors or phone banking for a dude who thinks God lives on the planet Kolob. Now they might have held their nose and voted for him, but I can't imagine much more.
Much of the population who voted for RobMe simply wanted the Black Man out of office. They were motivated by Hatred.
TPTB are not out for money....I get that. It's all about control and manipulation. Many have a sadistic streak and enjoy watching the Former Middle Class and the working poor suffer. They get off on that. It makes them feel powerful and some, aroused.
I believe TPTB/gods have used organized religions for centuries to manipulate and control the masses. And that has most definitely worked. This may be their most powerful tool, in fact. It keeps us killing each other and they sell weapons to both sides.
When faced with one of the PTB or even some Corporate dude who 'thinks' he's rich, the most powerful weapon we have is ridicule and laughter. Point at him and call him silly. Of course, you better run fast before he gets your name!
That's why I love Anonymous so much. They have no name.
That was a great article....a keeper!
