Greetings good citizen, lend me your mind for I have news to share! After flogging the proverbial dead horse for three long decades I have decided to end my quest to single-handedly save humanity.
The Futurist is abandoning a future that nobody is willing to fight for.
The truth is even more frightening, nobody (at the moment) is in control. The sensation of free fall we have all been experiencing is real. The factions tug and tear at the fabric of society, futilely jockeying for supremacy while squandering the faith, hope, and trust of their hapless pawns.
Few things are more destructive than the ham-handed mishandling of the threads of power.
The factor I repeatedly failed to overcome is the apathy of the victims themselves.
You are being lied to. This is news to no-one.
You are being cheated. Yet you don't know what to do about it so you do nothing.
You are being MURDERED and the ONLY thing you do is keep your head down and avert your eyes.
They say jump and you ask 'how high'? [Whatever happened to no?]
Some dare to refuse but that seldom ends well. The brave perish quietly and their murders are never solved. Better to be thought incompetent than proven evil.
All evil needs to succeed is for good men to do nothing. Bad enough there are too few men. Most males emulate their mothers because they don't know how to stand on their own.
Around the same time being a man became an expression of ridicule people were being turned on to their inner greed monster. The precept of mutual protection was abandoned for the new meme of looking out for number one.
Never mind the other guy, you watch YOUR back and everything will be fine. How many of the EST generation have since learned they were lied to?
Not many.
It turned what used to be a united society into a gigantic Mexican standoff where everybody stood frozen just waiting for the next guy to blink. Nobody wanted to draw first blood but they were all more than willing to pile in and grab whatever shook loose after the fact.
Behind the looking out for number one meme came the haunting reminder to 'trust no one'.
And now nobody does...surprised?
How does that Aussie MF [FOX] keep their charter?
How long do you let a known poisoner continue to undercut the values of society because nobody on Capitol Hill is willing to lift a finger to stop them?
Me, I'm done.
If you are too dumb to sort fact from fiction, you deserve what happens to you.
Adios,
Gegner
