RE: Did The Matrix Movie Predict Our Current Political Climate?
I would disagree that the right offers a sort of naked truth. The role of the right wing propaganda is to make people vote against their best interests through scaremongering, xenophobia and indoctrination. George Orwell brilliantly described this in 1984.
The main features of the society described in 1984 were self-imposed scarcity of economic resources, totalitarian control and permanent war.
Austerity, mass surveillance and war on terror - it's the essence of the today's right.
Its really not that hard to see. But then, of course Im looking at it from the middle, and not one polarity. Everything wrong today, and what has been wrong for decades, was the result of what the media mind control machine sold the general public for years. I have proven here with irrefutable logic that the mass media machine aligns with the left, so if you have a problem with the way this country has been going, you have to understand that the mainstream media and the Hollywood propaganda machine was complicit in it. I dont personally buy into the whole political left vs right reality show, as I know its narrative is mostly produced by one side. I see things from a balanced and unattached perspective.
Thats also the role of left wing propaganda as well. And Im being really objective. The extreme left does it far more, just not so much the xenophobia.
