The Unreconstructed Cynic
Shh! Have you heard, can we possibly
give these rumours the respect of possible
credence? Bearing in mind the cerebral
imbalance of those who passionately subscribe
to conspiracy theories of a quality worthy of a
plotting extraterrestrial planning an uninvited
drop-in party resembling an invasion, and
realizing the necessity of creating as large
a distance between the unhinged and the
intelligent segment of society among whom
you of course count yourself, as a theory
real-world outcomes appear to validate the
hitherto unspeakable. That, in actual fact, we
continue, sheep-like, to delude ourselves when
exercising the basic tenet of democracy's
victory over dictatorship by casting a ballot
and celebrating our brilliant choice of a
nation's peerless leader. As social creatures
spurning the very thought of those among
us who are clearly anti-social grabbing
a foothold on executive power, it is beyond
counter-productive that the great (moronic)
voting public time and again elevates
candidates who are clearly by their idiotic
decisions once in power, demonstrably
egotistical sociopaths gloating over their
powers of persuasion over the unwashed.
