Fundamentals decide everything, yet culturally there is little explorative drive even to examine the fundamental consequences of cultural media news priorities. Described by radio host Rick Bell as 'a very powerful message', the subject of this book is indeed significant, relevant and unique: confusion, and reads remarkably prophetically of the consequences of both media and political indifference to the principle that every human-being is entitled to understanding; the pandemic was the result of the business-as-usual disregard for what the public has to say, meant as healthy preoccupation with stability and prosperity yet fueling the demise of community fundamentals: independent initiative and responsibility.Replying to the Village political and cultural magazine almost four years prior to the lock-down, Robert Ewing immediately warned of a 'rather more serious' virus; and he also wrote prophetically to Village of the murder of MP Joe Cox and of the Vegas concert shootings.
