RE: War: It's not black and white

in Shit Photography2 months ago

Hi Galen, after reading the text, seeing the image brings to my mind your phrase about who pulls the strings and who are the victims. You also reflect on propaganda in times of war and, quite rightly, in times of "peace".

Which leads me to wonder if that photograph with the shadow pointing at the soldier would have suggested the same thing to me if I had not read your publication. Which leads me to another question. To how easy it is for those who pull the strings to direct thought (that of many people) in one direction or another, as it suits (their greed).

Sort:  

Yep, you got the gist of my post then. It's about how easily people are misled or pushed in a particular thought/opinion direction by a simple image or a title,a few words they read.

There's a lot of string-pulling at the very top and the masses have (mostly) no clue.

It is sad. In any case my day starts now and I hope it will be a great day. I also hope you are enjoying a great end to the day.

Yeah man, a good day today, very long and complicated and tiring, but over now. Friday tomorrow but I've so much happening I'll be working both days on the weekend I think. Oh well. Have a good end of week.

Thank you very much, I wish you the same even if you have both days busy.
