Like Everything Else They'Ve Accepted Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

To keep a people fantasized,
Strung out and deluded?
Never point out their shortcomings.
Approve of everything they do.
Including mass murder.
Support their justifications for it.

Gently slip away from them,
Beliefs others find them innocent.
Slowly introduce to them differences...
Between 'fundamental' truths,
And the consequences of deceit.
Show other races on TV defiant.
Connect this to fear and threats.

And then...
Blatantly steal from them.
Corrupt all their foundations.
Rip them off in front of their eyes.
They will deny this is being done to them!
And like everything else they've accepted...
They welcome their own destruction.
However...
This has to be done politically correct!
