Songs of a caged bird

One can't conclude much, unless one excludes much. And to generalize is, in essence, to tell lies. These things aren't exactly closely guarded secrets. How is it then that people, in all other ways rather intelligent, can just accept all the senseless lies that were told them in youth? They can read Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, but they can't accept that our entire society is based on slavery and genocide. Rather interesting paradox. My song goes:
Life is funny, when you exist to make money.
The deeper path is long lost, covered in frost
from the cold calculations, of a savage nation
can people return to life, after corporate strife?
Such is my dream, it remains to be seen...
