Nothing is as it seems
The SHADOW POWERS TIMES does not describe what is visible. It examines what lies beneath it: structures, interests, networks — and the conduct of those within them.
This is not about events. It is about the forces that shape them. The obvious is of little interest. What matters is what passes as self-evident and therefore goes unchallenged.
