“Every truth passes through three stages before it is recognized. In the first it is ridiculed, in the second it is opposed, in the third it is regarded as self-evident”
Arthur Schopenhauer (German Philosopher, 1788-1860)
It is a matter of perspective, and which perspective you choose to believe to be true. Also consider the fact that nationalism was invented for the very purpose of making the common man fight for the king by his own free will will. Over the last few hundred years many people have opposed the shadow world empire of banks, some with whole nations at their disposal. All who have tried have so far have failed.
