Perceptions.
The mass-media deals in perceptions.
It has no regard for the truth.
And it has no regard for persons.
Since the 1980s when Ronald Reagan began his counter-revolutionary campaign we have been living in a lie.
The perception that the Hippies and Baby-Boomers were in some way evil because of their liberal philosophy and their left-wing politics is a lie.
This lie was endorsed by Generation X because of their fear that left-wing ideals were not economically viable and they wanted money.
And right-wing Fundamentalist Christian organizations endorsed Reagan's vision and conspired with corporate leaders and Generation X to bring about the downfall of the left-leaning, liberal Hippies.
Standover tactics and psychic and spiritual violence saw the Baby-Boomers reconstructed as pragmatic realists.
But the right-wing vision of God is a lie.
God is not a vindictive judge and moral wowser.
God is our loving Father.
And Jesus is a prophet of love and the Prince of Peace.
The truth is much closer to the Hippies' original vision of the world.
Peace and love and the redistribution of wealth is the true manifesto of Jesus and of God.
The revolutionary forgiveness of Jesus and the radical love of God are closer to the Reality.
The conspiracy of the black shirts is an evil plot.
So be aware that the corporate-owned media manipulate our perceptions.
And they control us with fear and violence.
Look for the truth.
And have the courage of your convictions.
