Stupid Properganda

I as myself as did countless other folk I witnessed today Going about our daily mundane day to day chores Passed through the square where a man stood there with unkempt disregard for his very own personal grooming Underneath a sign he had himself wrote on a piece of cardboard he had obviously dig out the trash He held up with both of his hands as high as he possibly could above head so everyone was able to see With a message displayed on it which read Keep calm and carry on regardless We have all of us got this under control Our role is simply rather to not to question but follow Everything we are told by the power's that be that are currently in charge of the future of all us And no matter however implausible nor insane they seem or appear Know this 1 thing for sure trust and believe at the heart of every single decision They might make and be forced into take they sincerely do on all behalf Is with both heavy and our very best interests at heart Otherwise ask yourself this why on earth would we have taken the decision in the 1st place To use you and offer you up as merely sacrificial pawns unless we didn't initially think we could or thought you wouldn't let us get away with it But so confident are we and cemented in our beliefs that you are so inherently stupid We took a vote on a show of hand's and it passed with such a majority We then all though unto ourselves oh what the hell let's give it a go What is the worst possible outcome that could happen Much like every and other day before and tomorrow again
