Apparently, if Paul Wolfowitz can just walk around without any regard to his personal safety, there are absolutely NO terrorists, or even terrorists sympathizers, or even anyone who is grossly offended by the man's despicable actions.
If the biggest thing Wolfowitz has to worry about is a bohemian hippie-looking dude accosting him for a picture, then, well, they really have completely subdued this country, and we are all forever and deeply fucked beyond all reason.
Yup again. This again is a DOUBLE BIND. Double binds are created to have no way out. But the simple fact they are CREATED is our clue. They aren't natural. It's like the "uncanny valley". They are easily observable, but impossible to prove with a totally destroyed justice system. It's just impossible. They have been and are now trying (balls to the walls) to simulate a new reality. They will kill us all before any of us finally succumb and go along with it. This is the purest example of the financial bubbles. It's a vice. They know it. Who are "they"?
They are us. Our greed we've been taught. What a bummer. Seriously, what a bummer.
