Virtual Concentration Camp
We live in
a
Virtual Concentration
Camp
Where words
are
erased
before
they
are
written
Accounts
are
banned
to
Twitter's
Interpretation
Freedom of Speech
Freedom of Expression
Should Not be limited
to
a popular thought
or Politically correct
Mandate
Yet today
We live in
a time
where the
oppressors
are the ones
who claim
to be for
the downtrodden
They Scream
for Tolerance
while censoring
all of those
who think
different
than they
do
In our World
there is no
questioning
the policies
of wearing
a
mask
or the allowance
of a Walmart
to be open
while forcing
a Mom
and Pop
shop
to
close
Countless testimonies
and witness accounts
of a corrupted
election
are banished
to the public
and declared
baseless
debunked
conspiracies
Though
they do
exist
What is real
is fiction
and what is
not
is truth
Sensationalism
tells the speaker
of the house
to warn a General
of Nuclear Codes
when realism
tells her
that it is a self serving
political
impression
We live
among
fools
we live
with those
who rather
read a fairy
tale
than to understand
our Country's History
Sadly
America
is becoming
the land
of the forgotten
rather
than the land
of the
free
We Allow
Social Media
to
delete
for our own
good
but consider this
written by CS Lewis:
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience

Agreed with Tina! The times we live in... reminds me of some of those dystopian black mirror episodes am I right? ;) smiles and peace to you. Stay safe Greg!
Greg, perhaps you should get together with Robert Keith Packer, the Camp Auschwitz sweatshirt wearing deplorable who stepped into history during the January 6 seditious coup attempt. You guys can have a couple of beers and talk about concentration camps. Virtual and real. Maybe co-author some truly shitty poetry.
