Since the awareness and evolution of 'earth-magic' (the awareness of natural alchemy), a 'priest cast' has forced a system of rule on mankind by a small number using different interpretations of this same system. Monarchy, democracy, feudalism and despotism.
By making their knowledge seemingly superior and predictive it has cast the spell of subservience by mankind to a few since the concept of civilisation.
It is easily overthrown by numbers, yet man continues to be fleeced, subjugated and killed for its continuance.
Mad that innit?

God, we're getting Koeman and Dyche again aren't we.

Especially Kenwright.

The human race is insane. Humans killed over 100 million of their own species in the 20th century, alone. That is insanity.

Do we want to talk about the role of the education system here?

Remember the internet adage, kids: if it’s “free”, you are (probably) the product..
