Leaked Email to John Podesta Talks of Conspiracy to Turn Citizens into Sheep

Wikileaks has been a lot of fun.  They’ve been a major pain to those big-time politicians who like to parade around as though they do no wrong, and that’s a plus in and of itself.  In fact, the 2016 presidential campaign might well be remembered for all the controversy surrounding leaked and classified emails.

Want a window into what those who would wish to control the national agenda think?  Then take a look at an email released by Wikileaks that purports to be addressed to John Podesta, long-time Clinton staffer, Obama advisor, and chairman of Hillary’s presidential campaign.

If you don’t want to wade through the whole thing, here’s an excerpt that should give you something to think about.

And as I’ve mentioned, we’ve all been quite content to demean government, drop civics and in general conspire to produce an unaware and compliant citizenry.

Would you look at that.  These folks wish to “produce an unaware and compliant citizenry.”  Their words, not ours.  Kind of makes you wonder what their agenda is if it requires that the citizens be dumbed-down, or possibility so dependent on government programs that they don’t know or don’t care what their government is doing.

Now you don’t think this agenda would contain any nefarious plans do you?  And surely government-controlled education curriculum would not be influenced so that it supports this agenda.  Right?

Here’s the whole thing – typos, ulterior motives, and all.

Dear John:

Well, we all thought the big problem for our US democracy was Citizens United/Koch Brothers big money in politics. Silly us; turns out that money isn’t all that important if you can conflate entertainment with the electoral process. Trump masters TV, TV so-called news picks up and repeats and repeats to death this opinionated blowhard and his hairbrained ideas, free-floating discontent attaches to a seeming strongman and we’re off and running. JFK, Jr would be delighted by all this as his “George” magazine saw celebrity politics coming. The magazine struggled as it was ahead of its time but now looks prescient. George, of course, played the development pretty lightly, basically for charm and gossip, like People, but what we are dealing with now is dead serious. How does this get handled in the general? Secretary Clinton is not an entertainer, and not a celebrity in the Trump, Kardashian mold; what can she do to offset this? I’m certain the poll-directed insiders are sure things will default to policy as soon as the conventions are over, but I think not. And as I’ve mentioned, we’ve all been quite content to demean government, drop civics and in general conspire to produce an unaware and compliant citizenry. The unawareness remains strong but compliance is obviously fading rapidly. This problem demands some serious, serious thinking – and not just poll driven, demographically-inspired messaging.

Rubio’s press conference yesterday AM was good and should be repeated in its entirety, not just in nibbles. I will attend the Clinton fundraiser here next week but as I can only afford the low level of participation may just get to wave without a “hello.”

I fear we are all now trying to navigate a set of forces that cannot be simply explained or fully understood, so it is and will reamin interesting!

Sent with a handshake,

Bill

Wake up, America, before it gets a lot worse.
