Once the Trust is Gone
[AccordingToHoyt] What do you do after you lose trust in your institutions? All your institutions? What happens to a civilization when every public institution, everything we are supposed to trust and believe has provably lied to us?From the media with their increasingly crazy and public lying and insanity, to professional associations ("gun epidemic"), to our schools (really, really, children walking out to protest climate change? Because yes, children know things you didn’t tell them), to our scientific studies that no one can actually reproduced, to our contaminated, cheating elections (really, Arizona? We’ll keep the polls open till the leftist wins?) to the fact that one party in the US is fronting candidates that no one can actually believe and who seem to be living in a parallel universe, to our corrupted statistics for both census and production and cost of living, to the frigging polls, to‐ Look, all "elites" lie to the people, and arguably our institutions lied a lot more to us in the past. Or if not more, at least as much. Now for the first time, though, there are ways to verify and to question what we’re being told, and again, I must ask: What happens when the people lose all trust in their institutions? Weimar Republic? Posted by: g(r)omgoru 2019-09-25 |
