Hegemony

I was inspired today to talk about a topic that I, admittedly, was not as educated in as I would like to be whilst poking around in the /r/Philosophy subreddit: Hegemony. Specifically the type that most people relate to as social engineering. I would really like to locate some useful links to information regarding this phenomena as it currently exists in today's society. At the risk of sounding like a "foil hat", many would agree with me that the "sheeple" have collectively had the wool pulled over their eyes. Politicians and police can literally lie to our face while accidentally broadcasting the truth, and somehow the words they speak lull the great majority into denying what their own eyes tell them. Or at least, we have been programmed passive enough as a people to be unable to effectively do anything about this. People who try to stand up and speak any truth are subject to any number of horrors - the least of which are "black-bagging" by clandestine organizations within our own government. An entire branch of the intelligence agency of the U.S. government is employed to "surf the web" and crawl social media sites such as this one and disseminate so much "conspiracy theory" that the conspiracy facts are washed along and discarded with the refuse. Anyone who speaks out cleanly against the evils that lurk in our own backyard is labelled a nutjob conspiracy theorist and all their information is quietly lost in a sea of disinformation.

To me, this appears to be somewhat of a desensitization program, constantly bombarding us with so many forms of incorrect information that the truth can no longer be discerned - the needle in the proverbial haystack. Anyone who knows anything credible should share it - anonymously - here. I want this to be a place where everyone can speak freely. Perhaps we can begin to take the journey together towards true anonymity on the internet. It is possible, still. At least for the time being.

It's About...Time

    So, I started this blog a very long time ago. It seems I haven't posted in roughly five years. I never was very good at sticking to something that didn't pan out immediately. That's going to change. Let me be real with anyone who does decide to read this: I am hopelessly lost. I always have been. Perhaps we all are a bit lost anymore. I don't want to regale you with a sob story, but suffice it to say that my life has difficulties that would make a grown man cry (and have). I have a child with cancer, can't pay my bills, yada yada yada. You all know the story.
    I'm tired of giving up and starting over. So I want to breathe life into this old blog and possibly turn it into something that generates revenue. I don't have a vehicle, and I though I have not been able to qualify for disability yet, I will eventually. I do, however, have the internet. In today's society, I should be able to turn that into an income of some sort. So, if you like my blog, click on my ads! It doesn't cost anything and it makes my life just a bit easier. If you are feeling extra generous, you can always donate to the link at the top of the page, or click here.
