Collage work from earlier in January. How appropriate it seems to be now that the very fabric of my neighbour’s flag is being re-woven into something many of us feared over the years. Well here it is. #flag #art #collage #protest #history #historyrepeatsitself #wakeup #awake #canadian #fear #greed #oligarchy #lies #humanrights #secrets #billionaires
‘Don’t open the door’: how #Chicago is frustrating #ICE’s campaign of #Fear
https://therealnews.com/dont-open-the-door-how-chicago-is-frustrating-ices-campaign-of-fear
it's a human #psychology hack dovetailing into a #political and #social play:
you beat someone on the street, they run away, they fight back
you lock someone in a cage and you beat them daily: they give up, they adopt #learnedhelplessness, and hew to the #abuser. simply to reduce their beatings
you can rule through #consent or you can rule through #fear
and people are giving up on consent as #plutocracy eats it away. perversely, many then flock to the monster killing them
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
