There are so many incredible events happening in the world at the moment
With the creation of the internet people around the world are all able to talk to each other and discuss these events. This may be taken for granted by the younger generation but some of us didn't have the internet as we grew up.
It really is an incredible thing and it is also giving a greater voice to the public. People around the world are now discussing all the big issues of the day and forming groups that give them a bigger voice in the political arena
The importance of this process cannot be stressed....it is unprecendented
Each decade seems to have had a defining feature. We are all aware of the beat 50's, the swinging sixties and how that optimism started to nose dive with vietnam and watergate in the 70's followed by the materialism of the 80's and so on.
Before this we had world wars that affected people all around the world
These were all big events, but none of them will have such a monumental effect on humanity as the change that we are currently seeing in the bringing together of a global community of people who are beginning to recognise their shared humanity
Of course when people do this they stop listening to their so called 'leaders' who of course don't want the people empowering themselves or working toegther. These people then invest a lot of energy in keeping people divided and in trying to hold back the tidal wave of growing awareness amongst the global population
The corporate media distracts us from all sorts of important issues with celebrity gossip and many other mindless distractions to stop us all thinking for ourselves and taking control over our own lives and communities
So this thread is about taking a look at some of the ways in which they try to stop us discussing amongst ourselves the important issues of today for example whether or not our countries should go to war or who the small group of people are behind government who keep trying to take us to war....because it is only by answering these big questions and then acting on our findings that we as a global community will be able to see lasting peace
