The perimeter

I am struck by a phenomenon so evident that, as often happens, fatally escapes most: although many of you say what (in your opinion) "they" want you not to say, practically all of you are talking, on social networks and around the world , just what (judging by the headlines) "they" want you to talk about.

But is it more important the color of the shorts you wear, or get out of the ring where someone wants us to stay locked up, to see things in perspective?

In the end, the idea that there is a truth that is not "their" truth, that of "they", can also be consoling, for those who believe they have this alternative truth in their pocket, but it all leads back to a mere question of relationships of forces: the truth of whoever has the means to affirm it will be tautologically affirmed. In short, inside the perimeter, inside the ring, someone is Tyson, but, as you should have understood, it's not us.

What if we try to lateralize? Or just talking about something else? Here we have always done it , and it has done well. I, more than giving you examples (and this is a good example ), I don't know how to do.
