The fake conflict
The fake conflict pits two inert sets of actions and beliefs aginst each other. We are supposed to dance around in the shower of sparks. Meanwhile the real conflicts are planned, worked out and dealt with. Grey suits in a thousand different forms.
We are mesmerised by the shower of sparks and cheer for one side or the other. The sparks last a nanosecond but are endlessly produced. We go blind watching.
Beirut
Belfast
Kashmir
Western Sahara
Angola
Gaza
Israel
Zimbabwe
Afghanistan
Like the dropdown menu when you sign up for something. Managed conflict.
The politicians do a dance without movement or rhythm.
Frustration or distraction - the two available options?
