My Facebook-like quote for today:
Upton Sinclair: “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.”
I pulled that one out of the article linked below, “Anatomy of the Deep State.”
Deep State is something I have been aware of for a long time. We live in a world of illusion and obfuscation of everything, then people build arguments and make decisions based upon this illusion, then it turns into…common knowledge and messed-up thinking, to put it lightly.
So, anyway, Anatomy of the Deep State by Mike Lofgren. Don’t read it. It’s very long.
I hear ya, brother Dave. Sort of like those monks that actually think the world is an illusion and they actually think they can walk through walls

I [b]love[/b] that term of address. During the 1980’s when many things that we currently do online used to be done by classified newspaper ad, I sometimes used the moniker “[b]Brother Louie[/b].” Brother Louie was very popular and received many letters. 😀
