GLOBAL MELTDOWN:
Fascinating! to see: passive, consensual dreamers, shaken awake
Astonished! in finding consumerist boundaries radically moved
Like tectonic plates during those severe quakes
When foundations, landmarks, --everything-- is shoved.
Then wakefulness can become truly frightening
Readjustments, hazardous, but oddly, enlightening
Unless the incorrigible sleepers go back to dreaming.
Harsh reality is so hard, as well as disheartening
Who can blame these faithful believing sheeple
They are after all only passive consuming people
That rude jolts can sometimes affect
When inevitable rumblings their causes effect
As when the accumulated wisdom of senseless greed
Bursts the global bubble of a real estate honey pot
Revealing corruption quantified as complete moral rot
Instantly sucking up everything desperate capital needs:
Including mutual funds, retirement plans, 401k's, IRAs and more.
Our Short-sellers take no prisoners in this bloody game of gore
Capital Gains, once real, have evaporated, evening the score
Just vanished, into the realm of Maya, it would seem
It was an exciting, enchanting, illusory dream.
Whose losses however are solid, hard, and very real
Now, painfully aware of the small print in the deal
Our dreamers are soberly enlightened, but down at the heel
Having learned the hard way: 'experts' Really.Do.Steal.
Excerpt from most recent book:
1.
The hominid type known as European has been extremely successful
in dominating other hominid types. It has emerged as the most
dominant of the predatory hominids on planet earth. The other
noneuropean hominids have been moulded and shaped into slaves
and servants serving the european hominid.
Since the 19th century, mechanical labour
has replaced manual labour, or to put it another way, machines
have replaced a lot of hominid labour. This is one of the most
obvious features of the 19th century in advanced industrial
communities. Why then did the need for servants and slaves,
and servile behaviour itself, not disappear with the triumph
of the so-called Machine Age? Why didn't massive technological
proliferation eliminate the need for hominid labour? Or do you
think it has? Has the creation and deployment of tools and
machines decreased the number of servants and caretakers of
those machines or increased it? Has the Machine Age turned
both european and noneuropean hominids into servants of the
machine? Is the current hominid on planet earth nothing more
than a more complicated servant of various types of machines?
Is not the situation thus: hominids are now creatures so
utterly dependent on machinery so complex that only a few
can even understand them?
The triumph of the European hominid, and, mutatis mutandis,
of the eurohominid community --the eurohominid tribe-- is a
victory of an essentially mechanical ethos focused on
technical expertise and practical knowledge. The logos
of this movement is both teleological and instrumental.
The eruohominid community (eurohominidae) has facilitated
and in many ways created a global structure dependent on
complex machinery with levels of complexity so steep that
this co-dependency has a fatality associated with it. The
components of this mechanical culture are so tightly meshed
that the failure of any one of them, the removal of any one
component, like a house of cards, will result in a crash of
the entire fragile structure.
2.
It was the superiority of eurohominid weapons technology,
not courage, that enabled them to conquer the noneurohominids.
Among the weapons technology used by the eurohominidae were biological
weapons of mass destruction: diseases and viruses brought
from Europe. Even more devastating than the armaments and
mechanical weapons such as guns and steel, were the viral
weapons such as smallpox, tubercolosis, pneumonia, and other
communicable diseases. The bacteriological weapons turned
out to be forces for destruction of such magnitude that,
even prior to actual physical contact with eurohominidae,
masses of noneurohominids perished from the spread of these
germs and viral diseases. They became fatalities even before
the bullets or steel reached them. We also know that this
accidental form of slaughter was turned into a conscious
and lethal practice. Biological warfare is not an invention
of the 20th century. It has been employed for quite some time.
Noneurohominidae have realized, to their chagrin, that contact
with eurohominidae often proves fatal in more ways than one.
The presence of eurohominids, because of the specific germs
and types of diseases carried by them, often proved fatal.
Yet by far the most common result of eurohominid contact
with noneurohominids is enslavement, which forms the basis of
eurohominid hegemony and power. Indeed, dead hominids are
useless and generate nothing. They have no productive
capacity. Their labour can not be exploited. They cannot
serve the eurohominid tribe. This is an important point.
Only by preserving the conquered in a condition of servitude
could the eurohominid rise to a position of planetary hegemony.
If the noneurohominids could have been utterly destroyed,
that is to say wiped out, there would have been no
conflict between European and nonEuropean hominids.
Historically, according to the typical rules of hominid
warfare, the defeated were forced to serve the eurohominid
conqueror. Those noneurohominids who refused, either escaped,
or were destroyed by one means or another. Those who remained,
the 'survivors,' formed the base of the pyramid which supports
the hierarchy of eurohominidae domination. It is this base of
slaves and servants from which millions of noneurohominidae
are descended. The conquerors, superior in weapons and
technology, have maintained their position by means of
continually developing more powerful lethal weapons. It
is acknowledged that the eurohominids are the masters
of killing, warfare, and destruction on planet earth.
That much all hominids acknowledge. |
