We might be wrong… but only ‘bout slivers ’n inklings

“There is no greater ammunition for the anti-establishment base than ridicule from the elites. And you know what? No matter where you go, no one likes the media — or the elites for that matter. That’s why Erdogan declares a mini-war on media in each election campaign, arrests a few people, and neutralizes networks. It works, and the crowds love it.

Ridicule from the elites? Or simply the impression that U must be ridiculed. How else to explain the headlines in the papers, or the satellite dishes outside your window?

We cannot be wrong.

The Age of Humiliation will not end
Till Taiwan joins da homey land.
