The War On Us Referred To As 'The War On Terror' (Thinking out loud)

in #war6 years ago

Thinking out loud:

'The war on terror' is a war on the common man/woman, a war on us all.

It has everyone giving up rights, willingly handing over control of their lives to the elites and the few that resist, not much fight.

It has us policing each other, thinking that the guy down the street or the person down the aisle on the plane might be our enemy, that they must be watched and reported of anything we deem to be suspicious, not normal to our experience of life and paranoia drives some to dangerous and deadly acts to the innocent.

We stay paranoid and obedient to the system they continue to build for us to exist in and care less about what happens to the 'others' who are the 'bad people'. Bombs away and lock populations away, just don't take my phone & TV away. The war on terror has fattened us up on fear, misdirected anger and apathy. Those things have become an epidemic.

The war on terrorism is not a farce, it is a real war but you are the target, I am the target, it's a war against us.
