We've always known that good memes only really take on prominence when there is a critical mass of support around the meme. The last few months of Debt Wars, indeed the last few years of financial armageddon have led to movements like the Occupy movement. Finally now we are seeing mainstream Financial Reporters starting to use the correct language re: the issues facing the world today.
On Sunday on the ABC show Inside Business, Alan Kohler describes who runs the world and calls people who still believe that democratically elected politicians run the world "delusional". For the last ten/fifteen years those of us who warned of the coming take-over of our democracies were called "delusional" ... now according to ABC's top financial news reporter and producer you are delusional if you do not understand that banksters run the world. It would be nice to think that he only felt he could say this due to the mass of meme support coming from the likes of Occupy and appearances on other news shows by the likes of Alessio Rastani.
Then on Tuesday Night Kohler reported on the Kohler Report on ABC News that the markets are waiting to see what will come out of Italy and Greece resulting from actions of the "newly appointed CEOs of Italy and Greece as they carry out the bidding of their boards of directors in Brussels and Berlin" bye bye democracy basically.
There is no youtube (yet, SockRatEz had to get onto ABC to get them to upload it at all) but you can watch it here. Skip to 1:13 for the quote.
Ironic to say the least that democracy was executed in Italy over Remembrance Day weekend when we repeat the mantra "Lest we Forget" ... clearly we have completely forgotten the sacrifices of our fallen soldiers who died for what they were told was the defence of Democracy.
Lets hope we see more of this kind of language in the reporting of these amazing world events in the mainstream media from now on.
