____Chris Hedges: lessons from Snowden and the March Hare_____ Reform can can only come from the formation of mass movements and alternative centers of power that can overthrow the corporate state. [Like Snowden] we too must defy the law and engage in civil disobedience. There is no other way for the truth to be told and there is no other way for justice to be recovered... we must save ourselves. We are the people we have been waiting for. We must find - like Snowden - the moral and physical courage to tear down the structures that enslave us. Appealing or trusting to these structures is a waste of time - and all those who insist that we be patient, that we trust the system to reform itself offer an argument that is as cogent as the one made by the March Hare to Alice during the Mad Tea Party in Alice in Wonderland. Have some wine, the March Hare said in an encouraging tone. Alice looked all around the table, but there was nothing on it but tea. I dont see any wine, she remarked. There isnt any, said the March Hare. https://youtube/watch?v=k36_kV-Ur8g
