Everyone claims to be afraid and
fighting against fascism but what they don’t realise is just how close the UK
is to fascism. One core belief of fascism is productivity and profit over the
interest of the people, and that is exactly what we have, the needs of
corporations are given priority over the needs of the people, so in essence
humanity has been removed.
The UK is constantly putting profits
ahead of people, no one wants “ fracking” in their backyard, people have been
out in droves protesting against it, yet it has been given the go ahead by the
politicians to the queen! People were outraged about the NSA and GCHQ spying
scandal yet that has seemed to have increased, and the way in which these
agencies are getting all our details is by working with the corporations that
handle our information on a daily basis like : Google, Facebook etc. To my
knowledge the very definition of fascism is the collusion between Government
and corporations.
The other way this society is becoming
highly undemocratic is by limiting our access to (impartial) information and
controlling our ability to voice our dissent. For example, the news media is a
joke and the ones that are decent either
get airtime when nobody is watching or they just get their funding pulled and
ultimately cancelled.
This government has declared a war
on journalism by deciding to lump investigative journalism with terrorism. Some
people may think things like this will never happen in this country- oh yeah,
because we’re so civilised!!! But has anyone ever seen any of the mainstream
media?? They are so obviously scared to be critical of anything because they
fear what will happen to the company if they’re critical of the government-
tell me, how is that any different from the government of North Korea?!
Don’t you people how significant
this is? If the population isn’t well informed they tend to make bad choices or
become a very manipulated and malleable public that will believe anything. What
do we have instead of a decent news media, we have a bunch of useless
distractions- that’s right, let’s all forget the fact that we live in a
cardboard box and barely have enough money to live on but let’s all cheer for
prince George and the rest of the parasites.
Having a free and open media is
essential for a democracy but then again.. we’re not a democracy, especially when
we lable investigation journalist-who are doing a great service for the public
as terrorists.
