Macron - The Danger Of Rhetoric

I think there are several unforeseen 'issues' with the present era of global internet communications - firstly and probably foremost being that in every other phase in which there was a broad stock market collapse, the 'insider' distribution agenda was signaled quietly and surreptitiously as the professional short-sellers 'took their bacon,' as they say. This time around - not that we are exactly close to the collapse right now, but - everyone will be acquiring 'hacked' information and there will be no secrets as to who was there 'too quickly'/first with best information, and knowing what is being sold and where all the money is actually going.

This is a beautiful 'messenger bag.'
You have to have a message, though, to be worthy of owning such a thing...
Don't you think...

Secondly, I think politically we are at around the same kind of moment that ancient Athens saw, when the public was exhausted from the lies about state finances, and they were used to the rhetoric that politicians employed, and it became too transparent that politicians were only relying on rhetorical tricks.

I think the public in France finds Macron's rhetoric far too transparent - he is very clearly not being at all forthright about who he is working for, and he is using fairly obvious rhetorical tricks to try and convince the general public to 'feel' good about him; it's just plain not working!

The internet has succeeded in quickly spreading knowledge to the broader public, including enlightening them as a majority about high-quality analysis of politics, and this has meant politicians themselves are being caught on the back foot as far as being able to rely on tools and techniques they used in the past to get away with stuff.

There may not be that many of you who will quickly
'get' what the implication of this pic is.
Anyway, it is a pic of a foulard. As in Foulard Rouge.

But you can also see these same people are apparently incapable of adjusting quickly enough so as to be able to find and to use different techniques and skills and then hang on that way - and yet all the same they still want to cling on regardless; they will definitely not just let go and re-group and come back with better ideas. No, they are intent on using the idiotically bad ideas they have to remain. These people are going to take the public on head-on with force and with naked violence in order to grab onto absolute power - which is in any case what they are lusting for really. If they were not, they would at least try to be a little more inventive in their rhetoric: Macron actually managed to say this kind of thing - 'if it means higher pay (my brackets; 'to me'), then I am a Yellow Jacket!' This is a fairly standard fallacy of argument by association with however, completely different underlying qualifications.

Seriously, does he - did he ever - hope to get away with it?

You see either he is wildly incompetent and will therefore easily be kicked out - or he is a right little *hole and quite capable of murder to remain in power.

Now, there are those people in France who know him well enough to know which of these really does apply...

Without question this is a tragedy unfolding in front of our eyes.
