Think about it. If only for a moment.
Divide and conquer.
What about this age old saying do you end up thinking about?
Well, it all dawned on me this morning. I was reading a fabulous article today breaking down the banking system and the 9 things they've done over the course of history to create a "less obvious" slavery on the world. It was very interesting, but not for the person who practices apathy, it would be too much to digest.
Divide and conquer.
"Sell concepts like “nationalism”, and incite religious-based and race-based hate to divide and conquer people from uniting against a segment of society (bankers) that commits a long list of atrocities that would have landed anyone else in jail centuries ago."

How many times has this phrase been used in entertainment? How little do we respect it?
What it truly is saying, is if you divide your target and pin them against each other, you can conquer all.
Divide and conquer.
Would you go as far as agreeing with me that this is exactly what the media and current government administration is trying to do? Either way, whether or not I stand alone with this, I don't doubt it with any bit of wavering.
Let's look around us. Anytime there's an individual whose ideas differ, do we not become defensive?
What if we all learned to set aside our differences, and mean it, and learn how to work together in harmony to overcome the obstacles we face today? Why don't we all agree to do our part and take our lives and our country (and eventually our world) back?
Is it really just too easy to give in and allow ourselves to get consumed in entertainment beyond reason, and let the world fall apart?
What's stopping us from honestly achieving happiness? Entertainment has it's place, don't get me wrong, but how biased does it have to get?
Divide and conquer.
It's poetry / lyric time:
Fat Queen
They pop us full of pills
To keep us working, for their fill
Life was not meant to be lived this way
And I’m sick of the charade they play
Worker ants to serve the queen
So she may live fat and happy
So she may fuck us all
Time is money, but both were imagined
Both have been assigned value
Because they know many will follow suit
To obtain the things we could create
With or without it
Worker ants to serve the queen
So she may live fat and happy
So she may fuck us all
