>Everywhere I looked, I saw that the West was getting fucked and that if those people (elites) wanted to get rid of me, they would with no mercy. I was thinking like I had all my chances to live and hope for a better future gone unless you took the far right path and make a cleaning of people who hated the survival. The propaganda made by the general media is astounding and Goebbels would be absolutely proud of that achievement by using very mindless puppets.
> I have learned how elites act without knowing them, not that I am an expert these days, but I have acquired a mind that could form from the ashes a very corrupted movement if I wanted to.
Only good thing I can say is that they are all not one singular entity but a blob of random interests all working towards the same goals. Even then, they are fractured and not as unified as they first appear. Though it all depends on what criteria you use to denote who the elite is and who you consider a elite vs someone who is influenced by them, made concessions to them, or is even unaware or does not believe such a political reality.

>Does it sound familiar? one of my fics maybe?
Oh yes it does. Perhaps that was one of the deeper thematic inspirations that made that fic work so well. One could draw parallels with Luna and some of the more insurgent groups around these days. legitimate sparks, but the group is lead by someone who is more fearful then reasonable and doesn't have the most experience in the world.

>And no, despite those subtle lessons, I would have liked to keep my innocence a little bit more or at least, face this challenge little by little like you. I didn´t see anything other than blinding myself into a rabbithole of thoughts.
Because it will aways shadow you a little. It made the world less simple, you can't just have fun for fun sake without that in the background of your thoughts. You can still have fun obviously but sometimes even that can get crossed over by the politics gong on. It makes it harder to tune out. Doesn't mean it controls you every waking moment, but it certainly has an effect on you, how you thin of yourself, how you view everything else.
