I would like to briefly discuss how sheltered the common person in our society is from all of the things going on in different parts of that world and even in our own society. It's almost as if we -the people- are purposefully kept in the dark (which is the truth in many cases) in order to prevent the expansion of our minds. They don't want us to be well-informed; they want us to be ignorant.
One of the top stories on my local news station, channel 7, is about an athlete who now plays music.

I don't know about you, but while this could be interesting, I find it rather annoying that a news station wouldn't talk about more pressing matters going on in our society rather than some athlete playing the piano. (Not very well, I might add.) While they could be telling us more about something basic like where our food actually comes from now (a fact that only a small number of people these days seem to be aware of), they are informing us of something that has literally no effect on our lives at all! The press no longer informs us of the truth, it simply tells us what the man behind the desk wants us to think about. This all goes on while we send unmanned drones out into Iraq and Iran that kill innocent civilians.
What are we being made to believe?
