Is it really reasonable to think that everything we see on the news around the world is just the result of few deranged political leaders who follow just short-term agendas.

This happen because Putin is just a megalomaniac who wants to conquer new territories.

This happen because Netanyahu is just an extremist who wants to destroy all Palestinian.

This happen because Trump is just a glorified con man who want power and money.

What about the powers behind those people?

What about the long-term interest?

Are they really just ignoring the future global crisis?

For example: Trump wants to control the US narrative and turn the global warming into a fluke, a scam.

But what are really thinking the powers behind him? Could they just be so naive of their own long termn interests?? Or they actually want the things to change.

I mean, it is quite expensive to keep the power in a democracy. All those "free things" to control: the market, the news, the education, that damn free speech... the human rights.

And let me be clear:

We are ' NOT ' immune to propaganda.

You ' WANT' to think they are just idiots. A bunch of greedy pigs with no plans. It's easy to think that way. It's... comfortable.
