Black People Politics : What America sees...

[willa]

KO: "I have been thinking about the absurdity of this age and its delusional mythos a lot lately, Phil. What does it mean to succeed on an increasingly brutal, unequal, unjust and dying world? To attain the hollow grandeur and lucre promised by capitalist mythology?".........From a dialog between Ken Orphan and Phil Rockstroh; "Bearing witness at aeons end: The wound becomes the tomb"

Bearing Witness at Aeon’s End: The Wound Becomes the Womb

Another collaborative dialogue with Phil Rockstroh. PR: Kenn, this question haunts me: Is it still possible, amid constant inundation by the mass and social media simulacrum, for literature, poetry…

You speak of this dying world what is interesting about that is how cleaning the world up takes money. The money to clear the plastic bottles out of your water ways and ocean. That is to pay for the barges and boats scooping and cleaning; sweeping our highways, picking up garbage in the cities. We also have bought certain kinds of furnaces and stacks for businesses to keep the air clean, and pay highway patrolmen to pull cars over to ticket a polluter to fix his car. We put one kind of trash in one bin and plastics and metals in another to be picked up and reused. The company pays people a few pennies a can to bring them in which people do. Now there is a movement to buy your own reusable straws to slow down the plastics in the garbage. You know what this means, Capitalism.

While we are conscious of our trash and omissions China and others are not. Shall we start a war with China and sanction them for not cleaning up their plastic straws? "Hey! No more "bend-ies" until you clean up what you used!"

Answer: "We sip cups. Not 'bend-ies'. You need neck adjustment. I-EEEE!"
Whump!

It's obvious you didn't actually read the piece from your response. But that ok it was over your head any ways, I understand.
On the up side though I take it you are now a fan of the lame Johnny come too lately Green New Deal? Well what can I say(?), except it's a step in the right direction.

Here's JUST ONE thing praying at the altar of the golden calf has bestowed upon you, er that is, all of us.

And I have a picture of you as a devout worshiper of Communism driving an old oxidized 50s Studebaker. Is that a propeller as your hood ornament? I bet when you get up to forty-five it spins really fast huh?! heh heh heh.

Roaming Charges: A Place Where Nobody Knows

This week marked 8th the anniversary of Gaddafi's death in the Libyan town of Sirte. The lesson of his life is: If you do exactly what the US demands, they'll still enter your country, overthrow your government, hunt you down, torture you to death and display your mangled body in a meat locker...

It was the Libyans who beat him to death with bats and, after viewing his body in the commercial freezer so others could make sure it was him, then everyone danced all night in the streets when they heard about it.

Socialism is Sanders and Warren's plan to raise a "trillion" dollars on your raised taxes. Socialism is a plan to "raise production" without your individuality of "greedy-greed". They scorn your independence in capitalism because they know better than you. So get in line ex free market capitalists, you have no business going after more than modest clothing, not buying anything that could be seen as "aggrandizing" yourself. No running shoes when your old pajama bottoms and well fitting saddle oxfords will do nicely.

No bling when a nameplate on a standard stainless steel chain is so much more practical. Practical is the watchword and your kindly overseers of a Socialist government will determine what practical means, "for your own good." Oh, by the way there has to be laws with consequences to keep people in line. So there will be better food handed out as a reward, when we go into the Socialist version of a "merit system."
