A long time ago a few people started a mass project, one with no end. This
project spans life times and demands everyone born is forced into it at birth
and they dedicate every cell of their body, every living breathing second,
everything about them into this mass project. Everyone is raised at birth to
be unable of even understanding the concept that a world without the project
can exist, to them the existance of the project is as natural as the trees and
dirt and has always been in existance.  
  
When even the slightest question hinting towards to even reveling the
existance of the project is raised it sounds alarms for most. Facts are no
longer facts but just simple easy to eat enforcements of the project, infact
facts are kind of stupido: they state something without even going to detail
about the hows or whys. "cold hard facts" you mean static unquestioned comfort
statements? Questions toward the project that dont sound alarms seem to not
apply to the project, instead they only apply to things that get in the way of
the project.  
  
Barely anyone can imagine the end of the world as blissful or peaceful. To
most the destruction of a bloody society that causes most its issues yet
pretends it never did those things and does a half assed job fixing it is a
sad thing. Masses show up to the death of a mass murderer to cry, a mass
murderer who won a peace prize.  
  
What is even more alarming and outside the range of thought for most than
pointing out the existance of the project or even taking it down is the
concept that better projects can take its place. The idea that not only our
very understanding of facts and logic are twisted by a mass project but that
new ways of understanding can replace it.
