MAJOR OBSERVATIONS, REMARKABLE REMARKS AND KEY POINTS TO REFLECT ON --FOR THOSE EASILY-PACIFIED AND WELL-CONTENTED MEMBERS OF OUR POPULACE -- INTELLECTUALLY SPEAKING! :
WHAT ARE THE GENUINE ALTERNATIVES TO A PAP-CONTROLLED MASS MEDIA? ALL THE AVAILABLE -- AND AWFUL! -- ALTERNATIVES (SUCH AS PRINT MEDIA, BROADCAST MEDIA, AND ONLINE SOURCES OF NEWS AND INFORMATION) ARE STILL EXPOSED TO, AND EXPLOITED BY, THE GOVERNMENTAL SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITIES (WITH ALL THEIR INTELLIGENCE AND SECURITY AGENTS). THERE ARE NO MORE GREY AREAS IN MY LIFE NOW. IT HAS NOW BECOME A FORMLESS BODY OF FRAGMENTS AND REMNANTS OF MY BROKEN AMBITIONS AND OF MY DISORGANIZED (AND HENCE UNPRODUCTIVE) LIFESTYLE -- FOR MOST OF THE PAST 36 YEARS. IN MY SOMETIMES RUEFUL ATTEMPT TO LIVE, WORK AND PLAY -- AS MEANINGFULLY AS I CAN -- AS, UNFORTUNATELY, A MAN, HUMAN BEING, CITIZEN AND WRITER WHO IS UNWILLING AND UNHAPPY TO ACCEPT THE REALITY OR FACT OF HIS UNACCEPTABLE STATUS AS AN IMPLANTEE OF THE GOVERNMENT, I CAN STILL, SOMEHOW, IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING THAT HAS BEFALLEN ME, END UP AS THE EVENTUAL WINNER!
HEY, HEY, HEY!
