The Fact of The Matter [pt. 2]

Life isn’t that easy.
Life isn’t fair…but if it is, why the hell has no one else told me and let me in on the secret? Life’s not meant to be a walk in the park, a truth I discovered while living it. Day by day I came to see that the way one sees things isn’t necessarily how it is. For all I know, even these very words that you’re reading now may be nothing but pure fiction and fabrications of a confused mind, and nothing in this world is fact – and THAT’S a fact! Maybe that may just be the only true fact you will ever hear, read or bear witness to in your entire life! There are no facts, only opinions and lop-sided views of actual reality, true course of events and situations that have been mutually agreed upon by those nameless faces that don’t truly grasp the essential meaning behind the effects of what arises from the misuse of information, contorting plain reality into manipulative propaganda, distortion of truth, bending it to better suit individuals, when they themselves don’t understand the bear simplistic, the core fundamental that is that the possession of pure untainted ‘truth’ (whatever that is) is far more important. Is it so hard to believe that, in a collective, the eventual flourishing of the whole is of greater overall value than that of a single individual? Take this for example, an ant does not gather food tirelessly, with out rest, every day of its life for itself, it does this for the greater survival of the entire colony as a whole. Imagine if that single ant had to somehow manipulate the whole colony just to make itself look better from the outside, e.g. Informing the colony of an endless source of food located in some place far away, when there is in truth no such source at all, this leading to the deaths of countless numbers of other ants and causing the eventual demise of the entire ant colony because of one ant. In actuality it is only human society and the twisted mentality of the people living in it that could ever find logic in that reasoning. Like the ant in the analogy, this is how certain individuals reason with the truth. They see it as expendable, thus perverting it into what they call ‘fact’ and serve it up for us to eat, and sure as hell we lap it up as if it were the sweetest tasting dessert, not knowing that we are consuming the very poison that devours our society from the inside out.
