Perhaps it’s just to distract from the peacock in the room that those 52% are still rather civil-minded, and much, much less willing to stir any uprising than their predecessors in the 1960s and early1970s. You know, all those people marching in the streets against the Vietnam war, the capitalist state and (in the particular case of Germany) against hushing up the Nazi past in public life and their own families…
Maybe it’s also fallout from the famous cold-war infotainment videos? You know, this duck-and-clover stuff? (Or did I confuse something here?)
Well, don’t you know, talking about a revolution… whispers I’m all for a pea-shot, myself.
