Of worldly woes

A close reading of the article ‘The Upside-Down World’ authored by Edward Galeano led me to question as to how true and near to the truth is the author trying to bring us to of the plight of the oft media pompous big wigs of our current social world setting?
It’s quite bitter to think of how mislead the bigger majority of the world’s population is as we read through the article – “…history makes mistakes: she gets distracted, she falls asleep, she gets lost.” With the whole story of many people being only a collection of stories of the majority in power, it gets one to think how much of this intended ‘surprise’ in change in pace of history is as true and untouched from tailoring of the bourgeois.
Just like that of former American president Bush declaring that “The world is a dangerous place”, the only thought that comes to mind is that the great powers that lead the UN in the front for peace are very clearly by far the most ammunition and heavy weapon wielding of all.
Though this article chronicles that of a world gone to rot, where the bulls get the butter and the rest sit behind shutters, it’s really frightening that what’s told in way of a fantasy is the reality of a haze drawn global condition that threatens a global coup to cause the downfall of the proletariat, who though they know the problem of the moment, can’t change the fate to come.
