Tubularsock has always wondered how it would be to live in a country which had an educated and informed electorate but Tubularsock has come to the conclusion that the possibility of that will NEVER come to pass ….. EVER.
Not in the United States of America …… that is a given.
In former-times the learned had to read from parchment texts by candlelight and write with a pointed feather. In even earlier times they “wrote” on the walls of caves. And “In the beginning” they “wrote” on stone tablets using a chisel and hammer but in truth you’d have to be stoned to believe “those” stories.
Our society has the ability to be informed IN DETAIL and in REAL TIME to information 24/7. And information is just pouring out of every electronic orifice we have in our pockets, on our desks, in our cars, on our laps BUT the populous knows less now than they ever have in the history of our nation.
Why is that? No really ……… we can Twitter and Blather, we can Facebook and Flickr, we can Pinit and Postit, we can Linkedin and Pinterest and if all else fails we can Google Plus. You’d think we’d know something, right? WRONG!
Now, not that EVERYTHING is pointless in our “information age” it is all backwards and you have to know how to read it. Here is a clue. By the time “Madison Avenue” has come up with the proper catchall phrase or jingle for an experience it is too late. So even the term “information age” isn’t informational but the opposite, just like “democracy” isn’t, or “precision targeting” isn’t, or “humanitarian war” isn’t!
And take note, the catchall phrase or jingle LEADS the experience. THAT is what “Madison Avenue” was created to do and is still doing but not under that archaic title.
Now it’s called psych-ops. See how that works?
Thought control has been in operation for so long that it now appears to not exist. Even the government, religious and academic institutions BELIEVE their own crap! And leaders lead from their own concoctions of their own crap ………… the witches brew has taken root!
So just sit back, eat another organic pretzel. Have another cup of chai tea and ruminate on the true meaning of this:
About five days ago the New York Daily News reported that they had talked with the “esteemed forensic linguist Professor Rob Leonard, who gives expert testimony about language and writing in murder trials” and had him analyze THE RECENT TWEETS OF KIM KARDASHIAN to determine if it was she who had written them.
Yes, you see Kim posted a “nude selfie” (no, that isn’t the newsy part) and there was a flurry of criticism of her which led her tweeting a series of “humorous” tweets bashing Bette Midler, Chloe Grace Moretz, and Piers Morgan.
Now, Tubularsock hopes you are following this …….
Many didn’t believe that Kim was “behind” those tweets and she responded, “Wait I can’t believe people thought Kanye or Khole hacked my Twitter. I swear I’m funny too!!!”
Well Tubularsock does have to mention here for clarification that, Kim IS “funny too” and that’s an understatement. Just in case you had become lost in this drama not to have notice it yourself.
The good Professor pointed out after extensive review of all the Tweets that the term “hey” is often used by Kanye but NOT by Kim, the hashtags were all in lowercase letters but Kim usually uses ALL CAPS or Caps The First Letter Of Every Word while Kanye uses ALL CAPS, no caps, or just the first word capped. And finally “Twitter” is always spelled “twitter” by Kim but always capitalized by Kanye.
So the verdict is …….. the envelope please ………. Kanye hacked Kim’s TWITTER and made the “funny” bashing comments!
So this is what the “information age” has become and WE ARE ALL collateral damage!
