In reply to the discussion: A 13-Year-Old's Slavery Analogy Raises Some Uncomfortable Truths in School [View all]DeSwiss
(27,137 posts)...and many are just now discovering this for the first time, to their horror. Once they do and if they complain about it, the other slaves try to hush them up or worse, beat them back into submission hoping that ''The Massa'' (government) didn't notice all the commotion. Hoping ''The Massa'' continues to believe that all his slaves are just so, so happy here on the Great Plantation, and that he won't raise our interest rates or charge us more fees for using our own money.
And if all goes well later on we get a letter announcing to us that we're getting a [font color=green]Stimulus Check[/font] from ''The Massa'' which we promptly use to pay our debts. Of course.
Or, we get a letter telling us that we're being ''rewarded'' and that our credit limit has been raised because.... well because ''we earned it!'' When in fact, it's just another set of chains. Longer and more copious than ever.
This wonderfully bright girl has embarrassed her ''teachers'' by exposing them to everyone else for what they truly are: Cog-makers for THE MACHINE.
- Congratulations dear. Keep on looking for, finding and telling the truth. No matter who you piss-off. That's what I do......
