Half-truths, half-measures – v2

Half-truths, half-measures,
Tuning in to different echo chambers,
our own truth, our own reality,
no common ground, no overlap,
just shouting from the barricades,
the ramparts, our own forts, our camps,
fed the same set of facts, incessantly,
but what if they are all lies…
 
Half-truths, half-measures,
Believing the lies, propaganda,
echo chambers louder, shouting,
no common ground, no overlap,
just groupthink, hand wringing, so sure
that we are right, but are we certain,
fed the same set of facts, incessantly.
but what if they are all lies…
 
Half-truths, half measures,
An endless feedback loop, repeating,
not checking our facts, our sources,
edited video clips debasing, appealing,
twisting what we see with our eyes,
lemmings to the cliff, the abyss,
which ones are drinking the Kool Aid,
fed the same set of facts, incessantly.
but what if they are all lies…
