THE IRONY AND THE ECSTASY Zen Gardner, for Waking Times
I find it especially ironic that this latest round of draconian clampdown is based on a media perpetuated invisible virus meme. No big war, no attacking enemy, no material weaponry, staged boogeymen or concocted “terrorists”.
Yet this barrage of propaganda worked like a charm.
Well, there are terrorists, as usual just the same old perpetrators. The overarching enemy within the gate, its very rulers managing the human farm, now draping a shroud of containment and despair on seemingly helpless humanity.
Now is your chance to support Gospel News Network.
We love helping others and believe that’s one of the reasons we are chosen as Ambassadors of the Kingdom, to serve God’s children. We look to the Greatest Commandment as our Powering force.
Isn’t this surreally strange? Yet everyone worldwide responded more than they did to the phony war on terror or any other geopolitical or economic threat.
And whammo! One big bad bark from perceived authority and into the can humanity fled, and continues to cower in — even becoming enforcers themselves to degrees that escape comprehension.
Why Is It Ironic?
“Irony, in its broadest sense, is a rhetorical device, literary technique, or event in which what appears, on the surface, to be the case, differs radically from what is actually the case. Irony can be categorized into different types, including verbal irony, dramatic irony, and situational irony.”
Here’s another part of the definition:
“A literary technique, originally used in Greek tragedy, by which the full significance of a character’s words or actions are clear to the audience or reader although unknown to the character.”
Were it so, then everyone would know it’s just a play. Unfortunately the audience is only partially getting it. The vast majority are mesmerized and bought into not just the play, but the part that was designed to make it interesting with contrast. Like rooting for yin versus yang or vice verse.
Nutsville.
One part of the irony is that the individual biological miracles that we are, so called viruses that have been around for eons are what we are fully equipped for. We’re not equipped for thermonuclear war and all of this mechanized insanity out there, but we are innately built to use good viruses as well as withstand deleterious ones.
