They can all be controlled from a mountain in rural Georgia, it seems.
The graffiti artist succeeded in thrusting a powerful and subversive countermeme into any future media coverage of the monumentstrosity.

And also the thing we have most screwed at the present.
Yeah, I got that. What I'm saying is that it breaks the pattern. It's not a poem, after all, it's a list of commandments. The repetition is an anomaly.

Better yet, post-apox with only 500 mil., how or why the heck would nations spring up again?

i rather saw it as a suggestion, that is, an attempt to solve this problem.Better yet, post-apox with only 500 mil., how or why the heck would nations spring up again?
because there were nations last time there were "only" 500 million people worldwide?

Ownership is an imaginary concept.

Very cute. As you no doubt realize, my question is not philosophical. In the eyes of the law the property on which this monument stands is owned by a person or a legal entity with officers (persons). Ownership is a prerequisite for placing the monument on that land, which has boundaries marked out by surveyors and is presumably on file with Georgia or county authorities. If there are no such records, then who can say anyone owns it? There are , I expect, property tax payments. In all the blah-blah about the significance of how some rich guy put up some stones with his messages and some Christian cultists think it's really dreadful and important, I haven't seen anyone ask this simple question (maybe I missed it?). Not the Wired reporter, which doesn't make for much of a reporter, and not the fake Christian apocalypse asshole stunt-maker Mark Dice.
