Chasing Some Tail

My entire adult life has been witness to the folly of exceptionalism; the grand folly of group think. I watched us glorify embassy workers as heroes because someone fucked up and made them so.














 (The CIA performed a coup to put this asshat in power.)





I watched us elect an imbecilic hater as president and glorify him because of his racist-light rhetoric and his promise to get government off out backs.

 
I watched as this same president let loose the dogs of war (San Salvador, Guatemala, etc...) and deny involvement with a straight face. I was sickened by our country at this point.

His predecessor was the last person you would put in charge (an ex-CIA director). He pardoned the previous transgressions and led us into a war which our country backed. Yes, America, we  told Saddam he could invade Kuwait. BTW, babies were not being killed by the Iragi Guard. That was american propaganda at its very best. This was the beginning of our never ending war. He raised taxes on rich people and lost his position of power. His family has been war profiteers and war criminals since before WW2. It didn't hurt him or his family at all.

We then elected Republican-Lite (we will soon elect his wife) and got NAFTA. This killed america as an industrial nation. He gutted welfare and led us into glory in the Balkans. His VP had no spine and we got the worst president EVER!

You now live in the wake of endless war and economic brinkmanship because of these  leaders. Wave your fucking flags and believe you are the exceptional people all you want, but at the end of the day you are hated just  as much as the rich fucks who put you in this spot. Your pitiful hate will not save you. In fact the more you push against inevitability the faster your demise will be.

It is written somewhere that you cannot fight an idea, unless your idea is better. The american idea is not something people want and for this america will fade into the dustbin of history. There may not be a better idea, but there are a lot of ideas that believe america is not the future.

America is capitalism and its time has come and it is time it is gone.

Hording riches for its own sake is not conducive to growth in the long run unless your world depends upon quarterly reports.

Rooster

I held him in my arms and cried,
Today, a part of me died,
Love; it breaks my heart.

We had the best of us,
For each other,
I held him in my arms and cried.

The matriarchy

Ideology

I am as much a victim of my environment as I am a willing participant. I believed in truths. I believed in others. I believed my elders would lead. I have never been so wrong. Money, greed. and fear have won. They will probably always win and I am a fool.

The magnetism of power is seductive.

I abhor its call. I should have been born a mute.

There is no savior.

It is up to you...

Love and Happiness

What to do when you're doomed

I have purposelessly placed all my words in lower case for my title because I believe there are no editors left.

We have become the most insideous and greedy folk. I will not edit my own screed. I will let my missplells and grammar malfunctions stand. I am done with it all.

Have we nothing? Have we something? If you are a "voting" person than you probably believe their is hope. If you are the antithesis of this than you are more pragmatic.

Hope is what all people feel. Fear is the ripping of this from any life soul. I see turmoil and death. I see violent usurpation. I see pillars of life becoming the opposite.

Death wins and we may yet survive.

I Don't Know

I have been an atheist and a revolutionist and a liberal thinker my whole cognitive life. I am almost willing to join the "other" team because we can't win in the short run.

 Truth takes decades and centuries to be with held. I am human and I have no patience.

I have witnessed first hand the destruction of a society I admired. From the year 1975 we have been screwed beyond our own wildest dreams. As an imperial power we have followed all the guidelines and have "improved" upon them. I truly despise the nation I happened to be born into. I have no love for power unless it is in the hands of the people. I have no love for police or courts. These avenues have been corrupted.

I don't know what to do. Hide... and hope they don't find me (or us). Wait for their system to collapse and then HIde and hope they (ignorant survivalists) don't find us.

The system will collapse.

It is only a matter of time and will.
