Around the globalized world we have seen 'surprising' and 'upset' victories pulled off by one decidedly unpopular political party and they just did it again in England.
Coincidence? Hardly. Only one other, er, medium, is predominantly OWNED by the minority that profess conservative leanings. ANd what does this medium do? it informs us.
And for decades we have been protesting the stilted manner it performs this task which is the primary reason for it's existence. (Don't be mislead good citizen, the politics nor the beliefs held in the hearts of those who delivering the message are not necessarily in agreement with their employer but if they wish to keep their situations they do what they're told and don't rock the boat.)
It is a strong accusation to make but the results repeatedly defy logic and simple mathematics. Just as 1 percent is less that 99, 25% conservative bias isn't enough to win a single election.
Yet they do...and the 'excuse' given for this unlikelyhood is 'dissatisfaction'.
Now, more than ever, the electorate is dissatisfied with conservative governance (or, more succinctly the decided lack thereof!) yet our conservative owned media continues to announce ever more unlikely conservative victories around the globe.
That uncomfortable feeling in the pit of your stomach is the knowledge something is very wrong and we don't possess the tools to fix it.
That said, we don't have a lot of options.
I know it's boorish to belabor the obvious but you won't hear this from our of the bought and paid for conservo-whacko media.
Thanks for letting me inside your head...
