6. What to do when everythin is upside down, when applying logic leads to apparently insane conclusions
This is something we handful of people who are One-Eyed in a kingdom blinded and bedazzled by TV and drugs have to live with.

Try to tell anyone, and you'll achieve nothign except having them think you're nuts.

Just like the handful of people who recognized the danger of Hitler years before he became Germany's Chancellor.

Hell, I bet you could record the conversations between "us" and "them" from any historical period and it would be the same tape loop.

Anyway, I do not envy you your realization, for it will give you 100% grief and no satisfaction, since there is only one way left to achieve "change we can believe in" anymore, and that is a literal impossibility PLUS the Bushies have now activated the conscienceless monsters in one-third of our population (the KKK sympathizer third and I am not talking about the racism but the STUPID and the gullibility to authority as authority becomes evermore corrupt) to act as Brownshirts if ever there are any serious rumbings.

What to do when logic leads to "insane" conclusions? What to do when the entire Conventional Wisdom of a nation turns out to be 100% lies, or very VERY close to it? And what to do when, as it always happens, 99% of the people can't or refuse to see it until it is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY too late and so obvious even small children start noticing?

Been pondering that for ten years now, with only a brief respite to drink Obama's Special Blend Good Cop Corporate Neofeudalist Kool-Aid. Of course, even at the time in the back of my mind I knew I was drinking Kool-Aid, that Obama was just another Clinton without the sexual promisuity, but I wanted to drink it because it felt good.

LOL. Anyway, good luck with your awakening that will make you miserable and no one will believe you anyway as they gobble Prozac in the glow of their TVs.

I don't envy you.
