Hypocrisy Is The New Democracy.


Unable to cope with the demands of democracy, western leaders have decided to concentrate on their preferred political ideology - hypocrisy. As the New York police violently attack the "Occupy Wall Street" protestors and the Church of England backs the eviction of "Occupy London," western leaders prefer to highlight the same things going on in Syria. "The Syrian government is attacking demonstrators who are merely trying to obtain deomcratic rights," a Tory party spokesperson told us. "Whereas western governments are attacking demonstrators because they are trying to exercise them. There's a world of difference between the two." Meanwhile Klaus Regling, the Eurozone bailout chief pictured above, is visiting China cap in hand in order to flog Europe to them lock stock and barrel. "I see no paradox in western capitalism having to beg communist China to save its neck. Economic inequality and the exploitation of our own people are principles that are worth any amount of humiliation to preserve. And if that means selling off assets that are actually owned by 99% of the population in order the save the wealth of the privileged 1%, then so be it."
