As the world burns
The plot is developing. Fundie crazies have drawn their line and are armed and ready. Environmentalists are forming their own armies to protect the earth from the raiders. Any new information always proves the fundies point of view that they (with Jesus standing beside them) are sactioned with the "God's truth". They are television and radio. Corporotist couldn't dream of a better partner: Stupid, violent, and on their side.

There will eventually be a different kind of war. I envision a wall of ragtags standing at the edge of a rainforest as the corporate armies swoop in. The corpofascists having primed the common denominators that these types are dangerous, terrorists, gay tollerant, hairy armpitted, university educated, scientist loving freeloaders, i.e. the most horrific non-people to ever call themselves people. Hitlers all.

The Fascists Fundies will outnumber and outpower their weaker counterparts. The news will report on some other event.

They will enjoy a party of orgasmic spasms of victory. But then the Earth will cough. Her blood will pour from her mouth. Everyone on her skin will stand motionless. There will be a moment of peace. The pre-programing of the robotics will default and refresh.

And then the real killing will begin.

1. wow
That's just so darned. . .darned. . .darned. . .optimistic. I'm awestruck truly.

Come on.

We've got to rally our collective consciousness to create a "more happily ever after scenario" perhaps.

I listened this morning to the MIC paid pundits talking about the Iraq debacle being our children's and grand children's conflict.

Ain't gonna happen that way. Sorry.

Have a better day.

3. Thanks
I'm a very happy person. This is not a dark vision from a mentally disturbed person. It reflects a possible future based on current and past behavior by Man. I invest no emotion. Man being purposeless doesn't bother me.

4. If Man destroys the environment altogether
there could be a nice outcome. Nightmarish to some.

8. There are many like writer Chalmers Johnson, who feel a finacial
bankruptcy by America might bring us to heel in our Globalist/Empire Building.

We have many things facing us. What you say and what Johnson says. Both bad scenarios...but can the Forces for GOOD bring us to heel before we Junkyard Dogs ruin everything.
