Imagine a man sat upon a throne. Inflated, his ego would roam the streets, claiming heat from the palms of the poor souls, hands filled with deceit and greed, seizing the means of living, watching the poor grovel at his feet and lick the sole of his heel for a couple pennies to trickle down. And the people around him would still represent him and boast: What does a man like this fear the most? A bubble growing large, needs one needle of truth for all of its power to blow the lid wide open, to reveal the ruse that has covered the eyes of the poor. And the man knew this would be truly the end of his rule. If the ripples of dissent escalated into waves, it would flood him and everything he’s ever made, so he makes a decision to flood the news with so much misinformation that any truth exposed against him would be seen with so much scrutiny that he would carry on his blasphemy and still be seen as God’s man on a mission.

Gods Man on a Mission
