I often doubt official lines myself, but I don't dive into some fantasy world just because I think the official line has been treated with a bit of "spin", or that some information has been withheld. There are reasons for these actions, but unless one has seen this kind of thing from the inside it is no doubt difficult to appreciate the why's and wherefores.
Ah, that's because you're a government apologist, and probably think that only their governments are evil but yours isn't.

The sad truth is that ALL governments are evil, by their very nature, as they seek to dis-empower/disenfranchise the populace and control all trade and exchange to benefit the wealthy and powerful, for whom government work tirelessly.

The populace, on the other hand, the masses, are just oil for the wheels of industry, producing and transporting company owned consumables, consuming that which they produce and ensuring that the rich get richer and that the poor stay where they are, fearfully and blindly groping towards their end days along proscribed paths and channels, all in a sad dream of security or insecurity, depending on how far up the over-classes a*se they have crawled in their miserable 45 + years at the grindstone of industry.

Hell, they even think they're well off to have a yearly holiday and a day or two off a week. Pity the poor dabs, they know no better.

Meanwhile, those not in the pay of the overlords, those who by dint of free will, free thought and enterprise have also dodged the governmental inquisitions, quizings and coercions, the tax man, the bosses and other overlords (never had a "proper job"), and all social norms and have managed through self-employment to sustain themselves, lead an almost untrammeled and free life moving around the world engaged in their own version of reality and joie de vivre can do no more than to thumb their noses at society in general and especially the powers that be, feel sorry for the masses and continue with their most enviable lives, as some of us do.

All the while, governments heave and bully on, completely conscienceless and totally dedicated to their policies, powered by politicians who are largely in government for the perks they can get.

Don't believe for a minute that they're all idealists in government for the good of the masses, they're not, for government is an evil, but a necessary evil, and the duty of every man woman and child who values their personal and national liberty is to defend their country from its governments machinations.
Well said! Why dont more people see this as the truth? Denial of reality? Once you accept the truth then you can move beyond it.
