Always keep in mind, as I am sure most here are, that when it comes to this modern iteration of this top down right wing, THIS IS ALL ABOUT THEM. Boehner had to have himself another good public cry today. One look at the motherfucker and what he stands for outside of these right-wing prescribed burns of tragedy and you know he really doesn't give a shit (this is part and parcel and fully fits into the mandate of dominance the right believe it owns). And I really don't give a shit what people think of me when I say that Sarah Palin's loss would not be mourned by me at all as well as I would not celebrate her being attacked whatsoever. Here's why: because she is not a leader and as a leftist I need no leader nor will I ever "follow" one. I fucking hate cults of personality. I tried it before and the more I tried the more mortified I got by these left wing personalities taking their diluted fame to levels of ever uncomfortable antics (see Mike Malloy, Garrofallo, even Michael Moore etc). Intellectual and curious lefties want to commune and also be left alone by authority. Sometimes this can be mistaken as the desire to lead. However, I disagree. I believe that just being cool is the way. I don't give a fuck.
Do not hurt
Do not kill
Do not covet
Do not obsess on evil things happening to anyone
Do not laugh when evil things do happen to evil people
Never do anything evil
Always help at all times when you can
If you have nothing good to say, don't say it. If they say it, step to them, demonstrate that your brain works too and then try and become friends
Never put up with any bullshit -- ever
Be cool, unless your fuse must be finally burned once and for all with a last gasp attempt at asserting your ideals
Choose that shit wisely
This is why these late teen and early twenty-something idiots do what they do. They're either preyed upon or they have chosen an artificial idealism outside of their own soul. They are simply too young to question their programming from the standpoint of seeing years pass before them as impermanent entities. And by "programming" I mean the shit we ALL have to deal with, not some select specimens brainwashed by some "alphabet agency" or fabled project name. Yes, I mean the the famous around these parts, cogent Bill Hicks admonishment to marketers.
But, as the old saying at RI goes, "Fuck Obama". My very first thought as he brought up the death of Christina Taylor Green and all of the rest was a deep technocratic racism on the part of the message being delivered by the puppet leader. How many, HOW MANY lives and souls have been destroyed by the perpetuation of this activity by the incognito, yet in plain sight, true nature of the United States? Why are these deaths and this misery not questioned or brought up? After all, we are "there" to help them achieve democracy. Such bullshit. Absolute bullshit. It is the act of tossing out a second soccer ball on a field of five year olds playing a soccer game. Some of the kids will go after that one too.
Obama offends me as much as Palin, however from a position in which I would invariably would support Obama first. I do not like this happening to my brain. However I must. My fears, my family's fears, my friend's fears are being played upon. I am far beyond the time of recognition that we're being fucked with and quite honestly were it not for the work of Jeff, PKD, Goro Adachi (gah, sounds so cheesy) and so many others that are into the synchs, the history, the legacy, the drugs, the extant fascism, abuse, mind control I would have never ever recognized all of this shit outside of what it is.
This is something to truly behold. I don't care how you cut it, but a map on a computer screen is one thing, with or without the cross-hairs, but the absolute vastness of this planet compared to our size as individuals has never been more apparent. Yet the smallness of what programmed humans are willing to do for their leaders has never been more apparent either. I am a human who cannot conceive of what we did before the Internet. I lived it. But I cannot conceive of a time where I cannot look something up on my phone during a conversation, let alone go home and look it up on my PC. What did we do back then? Did we just forget about it? Did we hurry to the library the next day to make sure? Or did we just live and let live? I can't even go into a grocery story anymore with my girlfriend and wind up texting her "where are you?" anymore. What the fuck did we do in 1980? What will 22 year old would be killers of watered down jurisprudence do in 2020 with absolutely no knowledge of life in 1980? What will the generations of the Christina Taylor Green's of the future do with this deep intrusion by techno-fascism and their erasing of history as they go along?
Are these times akin to the protestant schism of centuries ago? (the Vatican has always been nothing more than a "proto" corporation) The Internet is kind of a bible that any of the parishioners can read in their own language (ala that Monbiot article posted today)? Is the only reason a "big deal" has been made of this because a congresswoman was nearly assassinated -- her husband an astronaut? How many fucking mass murders have occurred since Columbine, besides at the iron hands of our corporate military, which warranted a visit by the figurehead of state? The last one was a democrat, Bill Clinton, at Wadsworth and Bowles in Littleton CO. I was there. Many, many, many more have died between then and now.
In my book, they are diluting the power of the house. There will be another and another until we no longer care in the same way we do not even flinch at a school shooting any longer, when we have gone the way of Mexico -- just a few short miles from the service today.
There is no me. There is no you. There is all. There is no you. There is no me. And that is all. A profound acceptance of an enormous pageantry. A haunting certainty that the unifying principle of this universe is love. -- Propagandhi
