Food for thought – Say it like it IS

Nothing annoys me more than listening to a pretentious politician deliver a genteel speech about how they’re going to be “tough” on the scourges of society. Palatably scripted to the taste of the establishment screenplay, by which political correctness permeates, these career candidates are often only successful when they tow the engineered party line.

Living in a day and age where young “revolutionaries” (born and raised in Western democracies) can defect to side with a draconian death cult seeking to destroy all that has shaped them, is a worrying turn in the societal script (as it were).

Hence why I think most voters that are apathetic to governmental elites, are drawn like a moth to a flame by “reactionary” rebels, that stare down these psychotic pinkos seeking to fling figurative faeces at the trialled traditions of society.

When the Republican front-runner Donald Trump audaciously proclaims that he will “bomb the sh*t out of ISIS”, you can bet every red-blooded citizen with their senses about them is ready to rally behind such words (that clearly discard the PC script to the trash).

While precious “progressives” say we must censor what we say, so as to not “play into the hands of ISIS”, those not totally void of brain power know you don’t bring a flower to a global conspiracy of head hacking and bullet blazing.

Food for thought.
