Failure and Renovation is the Name of the Game

-

 

Every country, at some point, which nurtures and/or tolerates hate for the sake of it’s own security will eventually be unable to control it over time and, as we always are used to saying, it always comes back and bites them in the ass. Of course, that’s not enough to know to keep revolutionaries of all stripes from acting up, usually too little too late, because change is Time, and a scientific expression of ennui and obsolescence, for it is, unfortunately, the nature of Man (swallow that as best you can) to be both good and bad, usually at the same time.

Good and bad is a relative term, invented by the first precursors to the bilateral nature of the world, religions. All religions and beliefs, with the possible exception of Buddhism and Marxism and other similar, more secular, spiritual beliefs which say Man must deal with unhappiness or oppression by different means other than focusing on sin, punishment, and retribution.  It might be better to say, Man is a divided being that is destined to struggle between being like an ant and wishing they are gods, stuck between survival(hell) and yet capable of imagining a time when survival is not necessary (heaven).

Religions, once again, remind us that not everyone can rise to the heights of their imagination and the State, which in modern times has taken over, in many respects, the need for religion, tells us that some get more, some get nothing, but that it doesn’t have anything to do with our nature, its due to some have it and most don’t.

A whole institution has been developed out of this manufactured belt line religious/state concept that determines whose authority we must accept, even those who think they’re free are not allowed to believe they are not free. It certainly takes all the greatest minds of the modern age to put that humpty dumpty back together again.

I refer you to the classic essay, Ant Wars, somewhere in this blogs archives.

The significance of Man in the universe couldn’t be any more insignificant, no matter how far into space we try to reach. It’s really for our entertainment but, once you take the blinders off, anyone can see it’s for their entertainment and supposedly a demonstration of their so called supremacy, though certainly a limited one. Man always reaches toward the promise of sterility, which goes to show how stupid Man is because the world may look like a messy place, it’s still beautiful, more beautiful than the hidden, sunken, managed waste pre and post industrial heaps that civilization manufactures, worthless shit, practically obsolete before its utilized. Overproduced, underutilized, timed out products based on fads, dreams, desires, impatient imaginations.

The War of Fears

-
The war of fears lasted forever, Under different names, different decades, Different generations, different enemies, different presidents, Different strategies, different technology. But it was the same war, it is the same war Remembering over seventy years ago We were hiding under school desks, Building underground shelters, Hating communists, hating immigrants Though we had no idea who or what they were, They were out to get us, they wanted what we didn't have But thought we could dream it, make it real if we didnt habe them Breathing down our necks They had no faces, like zombies they were always coming, Then the war spilled from our homes and tv sets over to east asia, middle east, far east, near  East and eden east. All i saw then was myself fighting myself, As one who sees the self,  Couldn't see others other than myself. but others saw others and apparently could kill them as others Could kill them without killing themselves, As others who kill others see themselves as ...

The Wrong Paths We Take

-
 written 2003 I was in the bathroom and I started Fred Setterberg’s The Road Taken and I felt the twinge of nostalgic time traveling he was rendering on the page and for a moment I wished I could jump in the conversation with my similarly rustic road reminisces. However, once I was done in the bathroom, I wondered whether or not, upon further reading, I was being suckered into denying my past like many post- Sixties tomes seem to blather on about by wishing I had become a Christian, a Hindu or a scientologist, or a businessman, or an earnest entrepreneur, or by wishing I hadn’t wasted my time fucking around with my instincts and had gone on to get my doctorate or even my masters in something beside Anthropology, or wished on myself any other of the jobs my generation finally succumbed to in the name of “survival,” meaning accepting the prevalent middle class Darwinism, giving up entirely and guiltily on the one and only time I cared what happened to anything besides myself. Right...

How about more boring and a lot less war, genocide,

-
How about more boring and a lot less war, genocide, and economic insecurity? I have to admit, the constant adventurism model of daily living has grown so old, and I've found that I look more forward to boring than I look toward advancing some politicians dream they are representing me. They are not. The world has been taken over by speed freaks. Why does anyone think being constantly bombarded by a million choices, moral decisions, rationalizations that for the most part don't even affect most of us in the nation that produces conflict at every turn and is merely a smokescreen for keeping and sustaining the fires burning in the rest of the world. It is paradoxical that the minor differences between the majority of republican and democrat citizens have been manufactured by the constitutional arsonists of uncommon sense politics we have been governed by for decades. Are we really afraid that there are enough bullets, bombs, and hate pointed at our freedoms by another people who...

ALL

-
 all for one, one for all. justice for all freedom and happiness for all all lives matter today, april 19, is another protest, just after a week or two protesting around the country. is it good to keep on reminding each other that we can stop this sinking political juggernaut with vibes? it makes me drowsy just thinking about it. since, i who is in command of what language i can speak, or am I, can i really differentiate between ALL the subtle different renditions of ALL this or ALL that. Its a mystery but what would have happened if someone came out with All Lives Matter before BLM came out with Black Lives Matter or would we all know that ALL didnt mean ALL then any more than it meant ALL back then. if the modern wage slave has to watch the daily celebration of death and dying, the addictions rising, and sexual devolution among those who don't work, it's no wonder they are restless. if those who play without paying respects to those who won't, can't, don't know ho...

A General Strike?

-
http://portside.org/2017-02-06/whose-strike THIS IS A GOOD PIECE,  A General Strike?  'GET SOBER FOLKS' . I'm interested in movement organizing strategy... lots of people discussing this topic right now.  If  the 9th Circuit does right, will Trump ignore the decision.....sort of Andy Jackson reborn from the Bank Fight and the Indian cases of the mid 1830s?   I watched the NPR show tonight on the Oklahoma bombing of 1995. Amazing how much force the cops used and the resources they had, which turned them all into boneheads on steroids who drove McVeigh nuts. 168 Dead! The way things are going, that Reichstag moment could come sooner than we may have anticipated.  Labor is too weak in numbers and political strength to lead the United Front, and the broader post Woman's March movement is too inchoate at this point to fully predict how it will emerge?  Yet, I'm optimistic.  I have visited or done a little work with a few different ...

Old Timer (05/17/12)

-
  5/17/12 We’re Only Human, Aren’t We? One of mankind’s biggest problems is that there is a tendency, whether natural or not I don’t know, to lay a legal, simulated socially acceptable architectural framework around every important philosophical and religious belief. This framework turns into more of a meshy( as well as messy) mental jailhouse from which the intellectual cannot escape without leaving some little truth behind, like a revered ex=lover, one now despises, yet remembers good times amongst the bad, or like one atom smashing against another atom, leaving less mass within each and the other. Physics professors spend their whole life looking for that missing link. Don’t forget a brand new prison is still a prison. From the Holy Bible, Torah, Koran to the Magna Carta, Constitution, or Social Contract, there is the incessant tendency to obfuscate whatever is written so it can fit the perusal needs of the “obfuscator,” as GWB, Sarah Palin, or Donald Rumsfeld might say....

Everything is not about america

-
Maya and all the other alternative news media who pride themselves on telling the truth about fascism, you're not really telling the truth. Everything is not about america just because america seems to be at the center of what's wrong with the world, just because we are in america.  whatever is happening now has been happening before and since we were born. we were born into this life and have been shielded, protected, and miseducated, except for those who found they were born into this life, unprotected, but even those dont know how it all came to be. Here's the truth that no one wants to hear. At the top of the food chain, those who govern the governments, those who arm the militaries, those who own the resources, those who employ the people, even those who run the charities have nothing to do with those who live, work, play, shop, in the streets, homes, parks, businesses, fields. We are all the same. Whether in Iran, Cuba, Russia, America, Mexico,...

World War Three?? Are We there yet?

-
  Can I believe What I’m Seeing? It appears to me What I’m seeing Is world war three.   It’s not the nuclear holocaust I was taught to believe Nor the conflict between superpowers it was meant to be I was never taught how many nations must be fighting, If This is to be World War three But I think if I count the mere conflicts between sects, religions, politics, The sanctioned, the regime changes, the no fly zones, plus  the rock throwers vs the police onslaughts The ancient run-down armies of dictators vs the stealth technologies, The economic principals of the greedy vs the middle class, Fought on the streets, The nations that step aside, the defined dictators who are foes, The undefined dictators who don’t need to go, According to the principals of choosing sides.     All this I can finally see Must be World War three. Not up there somewhere in the future, But finally, here. Not the holocaust so not a new day of re...
