“It’s all a Lie.”

"All this time, they've been spoon feeding me lies, and I ate it up." He said, staring at the wall of compiled news articles that showed the people who were killed for supposed "crimes" against the state.

"It's all a lie." He whispered to himself, his knees becoming weak as the truth of reality sank into his mind. The Man who had stood behind him, The Man was the one who had opened his eyes, now walked forward and stood beside him.

"What do you want to do now?" The Man asked, his voice calm and his face at peace. He looked at The Man, then back at the compilation of news articles that hung on the wall in a truth-giving collage. His hands clenched into fists, and rage rushed through him: rage at the injustice, rage at the deception, and at the death of innocents.

"I want to burn it down." He said with resolve.
