Two things that are truly sad about this:
1. The fact that this is new to anyone. There have been congressional hearings about this and money publicly budgeted for these types of tactics. We also have declassified documents that show the US government has been engaging in infiltrating and discrediting political and influential groups in the US for decades. Look up COINTELPRO if you are that uninformed as to question me.
2. The FACT that most people will hear this and go on living as
if they hadn't. Most people who intellectually know and understand what is
happening, psychologically refuse to accept it and live as if they know none of
it.
Likely this defense mechanism, this denial people live in, is
based on feelings of powerlessness, helplessness and a deep desire to believe that it is all for some greater good. Many
people choose to live in ignorance because they know that reality is uncomfortable.
Does our government participate in unethical and immoral
behavior to maintain and preserve our way of life, allowing us to keep intact
our moral and ethical beliefs while simultaneously defying them? The answer is
yes and the next questions is; do the ends justify the means? Once you know
things are going on that violate the core foundation of your principles and fundamental
values, can you morally go on defending it?
When you have kids and love others, there is a point where sacrificing your own security and safety can be logically justified.
Let love, Not hate, give you the courage to stand up against injustice and tyranny to work toward a better tomorrow.
