Greetings good citizen, watching Bill Mahar last night [he always has Republican's on so what does THAT tell us?
Anyway, as the show progresses the topic turns to VOTING and how many voters are refusing to 'hold their nose' and vote for 'the turd sandwich' rather than 'the giant douche'! [hat tip South Park season 20 opener]
Well, the panelists opined that not voting was a vote for the other side but it's worse than that.
When you 'hold your nose' and vote for the 'lesser evil' what you're really saying is YOU'RE OKAY WITH A PROCESS THAT PRODUCES CRAPPY CHOICES!
ISN'T THAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT NEEDS TO CHANGE?
Vote, don't vote...doesn't matter because your continued participation in a process that CAN ONLY PRODUCE BAD OUTCOMES condemns you to perpetually being given choices that produce 'more of the same'!
Money in politics produces leader/decisionmakers who are beholden to their, er, the innocent word is 'backers' but it has become more like they have 'sold' themselves so they behave as if they have 'Masters!' It wouldn't be inappropriate to carry that idea one step further and use the more repulsive term 'owners'!
What the hell, they OWN everything else!
Worse, since Morning in America you have batshit crazy Republicans on one side of the fence and unidentified meatpuppets who don't even call themselves Democrats anymore on the other side that NO ONE knows what they stand for...because they don't stand for anything except pretending to oppose the Republicans...until they don't.)
Some genius hung the progressive label on them but the last political party to identify themselves as 'progressive' was the Nazis!
Um, not necessarily 'rinse & repeat' time but the question remains, how do we effect change when the ballot box remains beyond our reach?
What are you going to do to give your children something you never had?
SOMEBODY told you a STRIKE is the answer. It is the ONLY (peaceful) way to send them a message they will understand.
The same 'somebody else' told you yesterday that it was your responsibility to rid yourself of a society that wasn't just and equal when such a place has NEVER EXISTED.
Gegner apologizes for that but the goal here is a world at peace because without peace there can be no prosperity!
A society that is constantly girding itself for war [or is always AT war] is more concerned with 'victory' than the prosperity of its people.
What do you suppose 'victory' looks like in the GWOT? 6,900,000,000 dead?
TO understand the answer you need to switch gears and play 'billionaires and terrorists'...if you're not a billionaire, you're a potential threat! [A game that only gets more intense once trillionaires enter the scene!]
Don't you WISH wealth and intelligence were 'proportional', then our species would stand a ghost of a chance!
If we can't alter the process because the process is beyond our reach AND the process continues to produce 'bad outcomes', how will we restore justice?
Short answer is we WON'T!
Who is responsible? [YOU ARE!] What can be done? [STRIKE!] What do we want? [A Simple Plan!] Why do we want it? [TO END THE EXPLOITATION OF MANKIND!] When do we want it? [NOW!]
Not to throw stones at my audience but if this stuff is 'apparent' to me then what's wrong with the rest of you?
Those are your Choices good citizen,
Choose Wisely!
Thanks for letting me inside your head,
Gegner
