My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie WALL.E. As of late, this movie has had profound effects on me as I watch the US government scream about the release of diplomatic cables.
The organization of Wikileaks has created such an uproar within America. Some think that the Editor-in-Chief should be silenced permanently. Yet, more and more, from all over the world, is calling for Julian Assange's freedom.
While posting on Facebook this morning, I linked the WikiRebel documentary so that I could share this important piece with others. It was my hope, that I could engage others to pay attention to what is going on in the Middle East. How these American soldiers, that are supposed to protect and serve, behaved as if they were playing Call of Duty on XBOX 360 live.
The first response that was posted, was in favor of our American military. That the killings that were recorded from the Apache helicopter, was pretty much ok, because it is a war zone.
So many people blindly support the American government and its military operations without questioning the events that surrounded the murder of those innocent civilians that were shown in that video.
It is a reflection on the movie WALL.E. Where the residents of Earth, had to be taken into space to live on the Axiom that BnL created. BnL represents our government. Those residents blindly followed what the "voice" told them to do. These people were so plugged into technology and communicating, that they were unable to freely think. They were distracted.
The "voice" would tell them that the color red was the new blue. All residents blindly took that and changed the color of their wardrobe without asking any questions.
Today, the government is vilifying Wikileaks. Exclaiming that they have blood on their hands. Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black? If Wikileaks has blood on its hands, which has proven untrue, the American government has blood all over its entire body.
The American government wants us to be distracted by things of non substance so that we are too busy to pay attention to the governments actions.
People, wake up! Pay attention. Think for yourself. Do not allow the government to decide what you should be thinking.

It's interesting that you've drawn the same conclusions.
ReplyDeleteIf things continue going the way they are and the Corporations keep getting more and more power and influence over the governments, it will so definitely end up going that way.
With the recent developments about how the US Dept. of Homeland Security are putting TV screens with "tips on how to be safe" messages on them in Wallmart stores, it's starting to read more like a Dystopian thing like V for Vendetta or Gattaca or AEON Flux where society is controlled by a militant government.
By blindly trusting the corporations and the governments actions, the people of the world are only allowing themselves to get further smothered by bureaucracy and red-tape until there'll be little chance we'll every get out from under it again.
Corporations do indeed have more control over governments, than the people. With zero caps on political donations from organizations, 10 lobbyists for every 1 politician, there is absolutely no reason to vote.
ReplyDeleteI digress, I will vote until my death.
