What is a ‘farce’?
An absurdity, a travesty or sham,
pretence or charade, a real joke
Now let’s look at some of our farces?
Not caring for our own health,
overspending, getting deep into debt
Spending too much time on line
we neglect human interaction.
politicians claiming they work for us?
I am sure you can think of many more
please post them below so we can all share
… things we need to get authentic about?
Daily Prompt: Farce
[…] : This is in response to a comment I made on Kate’s post farcical. I hope I did justice dear […]

I think the quote most eloquent (and relevant) in attempting to express the tumultuous ‘state of our modern world’. The essential message is ‘don’t believe the hype!’
I first saw it some years ago whilst watching a series of DVD’s by David Icke – Human Race Get Off Your Knees. The Lion Sleeps No More! (Well worth watching on You Tube with a very open discerning mind 😉 )
Hoping all is well.
Take care. Namaste 🙂

A very relevant post in todays emotionally traumatised world.
The ‘world’ as the vast majority of people perceive it is a distortion of reality, it is a farce, an inversion of the truth – it is a simulated matrix artificially constructed to limit human potential so as to maintain the established order.
“Just look at us. Everything is backwards, everything is upside down. Doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, psychiatrists destroy minds, scientists destroy truth, major media destroys information, religions destroy spirituality and governments destroy freedom.” (Michael Ellner)

Fantastic words of true farce written, Kate and for sure I agree totally with your words. A farce it sure is but being away from it is the reality.

Excellent, Kate. I think many things in our modern lives are farcical. Particularly things like good corporate governance, rehabilitation of mines, anti-pollution laws, etc. Our governments and corporates play lip service to these things to appease the public but never allow them to interfere with profit making thereby cutting the legs off the real meanings.

People who say everyone should be able to be themselves/be their true self…and then those same people judge, criticize and bully others. 😦
I heard a quote that said, “Don’t surrender your life to a face, a farce, a fence or a force. Don’t be a slave. Be brave.” 🙂

Being told we stress out too much then being taxed and raided by the same people.
Spending money we’ve earned on the means to get to work so we can earn money.
Spending time going to the same place every day to do the same thing.
Society is a farce! 🙂
