I used to be a dumb, lazy voter, but not anymore! Naïve, ignorant, stupid, dumb voters is exactly what most of the wealthy people, corporations and lobbyist want us to be. Why? Because they know if you’re educated and interested and care about your needs and issues, then you will vote against their interest and needs and they don’t want that! Why? Because if you vote against their interest they lose money and they lose power and their wealth will go down. So they do everything they can to keep you occupied, angry, confused and stupid. They do this by giving you fake news, useless news, exaggerates stories and putting the blame on other people, groups countries or systems to make it look like it’s their fault that you have so many problems with your life. The corporations overwhelm you with TV shows, advertisement, video games and web sites to teach you to be docile, dumb, obedient and loyal to their profit and power needs. This explains why we have such a large wealth inequality gap. This explains why we have such a bad COVID-19 government response. This explains why we have mostly a two Party political system. This explains why we have so much racism. If you don’t believe me then just do your own research online or ask other professionals.
Thank you for reading this article. I hope some of you will wake up and get involved in making our county a better place. Please, Question everything and never stop learning.
