Deconstructing the Narrative: Spot the Difference

Let’s deconstruct some recent news that we should all be concerned about.

An innocent American journalist is executed by a defense-funded militant organization (that may have been staged) that no longer seems to represent the people that started it.

An innocent young black man is shot several times point-blank in ‘Anywhere, North America’ by a defense-funded militant organization that no longer represents the people that funded it.

What’s the difference?

Nothing.

We’re flies caught in the web spun by the military industrial complex and our own protectors are now fighting against us.

Public audits, people.  We need public audits of the military and police forces that are absorbing so much of our financial resources.

Or, we can be like Vermont and choose to end the war on drugs by ending their budgets.
