It
began to
go wrong when
doubts were
nursed into
distrust
in
all streams of information flow, media, fake facts,
spin
out of control,
whirling
the
corruption of politics
business
of
greed
decimating
public good with ammoral sledges.
It
began
with local
news destroyed by conglomerate agendas
of
laissez-faire powers
to distort truth,
bury facts,
murder
journalists, all
of it financed by
a
coin
in the money laundry,
when
the
losers of the second world war
won
the peace in 1984’s electioneering coup:
anyone
with a working
sense of distrust
doubts
every word that spreads from the mouths of most powers.
In
that spirit, the appearance of a new virus on a planet battered
by
pillaging and indifference to the largest and smallest forms of life,
ensured
the news
of a rapidly
spreading disease
was
met with theories
of
conspiracies unfolded by the world’s various, competing,
military-industrial
complexes and their Officed
servants and
financiers: by a
planetary coup of gangster capitalists,
by a China run by billionaires pretending
to
be communists;
by an America run by billionaires pretending to believe in democracy
through their Grifter King
who’s
con agenda at
odds with the
personal
health
of
everyone on the planet, skews news to lie and facts
with
no trace of common human or planetary good defenders
in their circle
of
bots and shills and gospel spoilers alert to opportunities to distort
truth
across a
wide array
of bought
and paid for
sources,
which
is how
the emerging pandemic
made
us all victims
of our
own false
doubts fed
to us
from
fake
news broadcast
from
all
sides,
street
level
competing
opportunisms,
from
those with
criminal
intent,
insisting
on the return to work of the already
abused
and
devalued,
essential workers, who
have forever
proved
that they,
not capital, are the means of production
the front line between humane humanity and capitalists.
The
succubi rich continue
to feed off the host
from
the safety of their places in the shadows
while
the virus unleashes unexpected depths of community
where
ever it spreads, turning provincial
privateers
into agents of common good
washing clean the contempt of old ways on TV,
or
not, we'll see.
