\nJohn Lennon\u2019s famous 1968 quote remains a staple of political commentary, capturing a timeless disillusionment with institutional power, political corruption, and systemic failure.<\/p>\n

From the wars of the 20th century to the corporate and political corruption of today, the players change but the game stays the same. Holding power accountable means recognizing that the system has been broken for a very long time.<\/p>\n

English Script:
\nJohn Lenon: I think all our society is run by insane people for insane objectives, and I think that’s what I sussed when I was 16 and 12. Way down the line. But I expressed it differently all through my life. It’s the same thing of expressing all the time. But now I can put it into that sentence that I think will have been run by maniacs for maniacal ends, you know? If anybody can put on paper what our government and the American government, etc., and the Russian Chinese, what they are actually trying to do. And how they think they’re doing. I’ll be very pleased to know what they think they’re doing. I think they’re all insane, you know, but I’m liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. You know, that’s what’s insane about it. I mean, don’t you agree?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
