Truth - seriously?

Another day I was actually talking to the barber, when he referred to politics (generally) as a bunch of truth omiters .... as i've argued that its a propagation effect that came from a long ago..... so its almost in our DNA
In fact Aristotle has stated, regarding is mentor Plato, something like " I am a Plato's friend, but i'm even more of the truth"....
This sentence carved my mind, and despite of this time gap from that ages it still does apply..... because there are so much opinion makers, so many noisemakers, so many fait divers, that one can't filter so much volumes of info, and by the way, opinion maker should be now considered a profession ..... (being ironic)

It's just like the Matrix movie of the  Wachowski Brothers (nice metaphor), there's a pretending world and a real world.... wars, conflicts, earthquakes, health, countries bailouts, airplanes ....
 no I'm no conspiracy lover whatsoever.... and what's in the middle of all this? the usual: greed and the madness of wanting to control mankind....

yes we could probably be ants in a predicted path..... but let just us to be the ones who do this path prediction.
As i said before, i'm no conspiracy lover, i'm just an Aristotle old friend....

Ciao G,

People don't want the truth (after all, it hurts like hell); they want to live in illusion, so they prefer to lied to - it's more comfortable.

Matrix, my favourite movie. It is filled with so many subliminal messages and I love to decode them every time I watch the trilogy.

Cheers
