We are being controlled!
The swamp is bigger than ever!!
The peadophile ring wasn’t in Washington with alien lizards; it was on Epstein Island with Trump.
While Musk plays with rockets people queue at food banks.

There are two problems in the world:
a. Billionaires. Nobody ‘earns’ a billion. They get that money by exploiting the work and ideas of other people. Nobody needs a billion. It’s nonsense. Because the wealth is so badly divided a few have more than they could ever need while millions starve. It’s immoral.
b The people who think being a billionaire is alright and aspire to be one. They call it the American Dream. It’s a contrick. The system is set up for billionaires. They control it. They load the dice. They bribe, blackmail and manipulate. They have their closed schools, clubs and secret societies. It’s obscene.
WOKE
I’m as woke as can be!! I am aware of all the evil deeds and nasty stuff that was done by my country (Doesn’t mean that I don’t like the good stuff!)
I don’t think we British are superior to anybody else. Some of us are great; some of us are complete bastards.
I’m woke.
I know that we are still being manipulated and controlled by the same greedy bastards.
I’m woke
I know that all the wealth we plundered went straight into the coffers of a tiny minority of arrogant bastards.
I’m woke
I know that most wars are the result of greed, patriotism, nationalism and lust for power.
I’m woke
I know that racism and scapegoating is used as a distraction by populist politicians to deflect from how they are conning us!
I’m woke
I care about the poverty, desolation and destitution these greedy bastards leave in their wake.
Woke is caring!!
The Billionaires Club
The Same
More of the Same
Now that the dust has settled
We can see that the same guys won
They are lazing in their ivory towers
Laughing at everyone.
So easy to twist the rules
Now that they own all the tools
With cases of sparkling jewels
To control the blinded fools
We all knew.
Nothing we could do.
That’s the way it goes
For friends and foes
The economy grew
But only for the few.
Now that the battles over
We never had a chance
They had all the weapons
We just had to dance
They called the tune
Left us howling at the moon
When the fat lady sung
It was the silver spoon!
That’s the way it goes
For those who know.
Stealing from the poor
Rotten to the core.
But the war still rages
And the mightiest always fall
Laughing at the minute
Then up against the wall.
They own the social media
But it contains the seeds that freed ya
When the time is right
They’ll see the light.
That’s the way it goes
Cycles and throes
See through that old soft soap
Guillotines and rope
Opher – 6.4.2025
It began as a poem of despair. We have our elections but they are limited and controlled. We get a limited choice with not much to choose. The candidates are carefully selected. The information controlled.
We are manipulated, controlled and herded. Our protests are orchestrated. The system prevails.
The same few pull the strings and determine the outcome. We elect their choices.
When the dust has settled the same people are in charge; the same people profit.
The same people suffer. The same people pay.
Every now and then there is a revolt.
Autism? Psychopathy? Or Megalomania?
The Power of Mass Psychology!
Losing all faith in Democracy
I don’t really want democracy at all. I’ve had it!
How, in a modern world of such incredible complexity, can the average person be expected to make ant kind of informed decision??
When half of the population have an IQ below average (below 100) how can they be expected to understand the really difficult issues?
When the education system fails to inform or create thinking individuals how can they weigh up the possibilities?
When we have a media and social media churning out misinformation, conspiracy and propaganda that ignorant people accept as fact how can democracy work?
When we have billionaires pulling the strings and creating a corrupt system, manipulating peoples’ views how can we have democracy?
Democracy depends on having intelligent, well-informed individuals, debating, researching and coming to informed decisions.
What we have is an unintelligent population, largely uneducated, blinded with religion, inflamed with racism and nationalism, manipulated by powerful politicians and billionaires, voting for their own impoverishment and imprisonment.
Having seen the way the population was swayed towards Brexit, Trump, Farage and Johnson (Oban, Meloni, Bolsonaro and Wilders) I am losing all hope.
Democracy is a sham.
We are being controlled by a small elite of greedy, selfish billionaires.
The whole world is being run for the benefit of a few!
Free Speech!
I don’t think I want Free Speech. I think I want limited Free Speech.
On a day when nasty conspiracy spreaders like Elon Musk get nominated for a Nobel Prize I would question what we understand by Free Speech.
Twitter has become a bastion of conspiracy, hate and propaganda masquerading as Free Speech. Trump and Musk pour out a mass of lies, conspiracy and propaganda claiming to be true.
They say they are all for free speech but their idea of free speech is the right to publish lies, conspiracy and hate without any checks or accountability.
I want to be able to say what I like about politics, religion, sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll.
BUT……
I want accountability.
Should someone (Like Alex Jones, Trump or Musk) be allowed to deliberately pump out lies and conspiracy as truth?
Should anyone be allowed to stir up hatred against racial groups, creeds, any social group, women, trans or homosexuals without accountability?
Should an individual or party be allowed to put out blatant incorrect propaganda without fact checking?
To my mind this isn’t free speech; this is about control, manipulation, power, division and exploitation.
Now Facebook is joining the right-wing propaganda machine that Trump is orchestrating we live in a world increasing controlled by billionaires through targeted Social Media. We are being psychologically controlled.
Free Speech really means allowing the powerful to lie and exploit us!
I’m all for Free Speech
