Born of the social stresses of Europe, the United States is not divorced, nor exceptional, now since the bush coup of 2000, the republic is replaced with a shadow monarchy. Then for intelligent peoples, begs inquiry as to why the consensus of hegemony still stands, and what we are really supporting with the vote of complicity.

So are you telling me that the people struggled for centuries to wind up unconscionably contained in a totalitarian system where political choice is reduced to consumer choices over rival brands in a political economy monoculture?

Are you tonguetied?

Do you sometimes just feel the complex utter frustration of this, and no words can possibly convey, really the hopeless malaise of this cynical bush/bliar world. In a few fell acts, a constitution and a liberal society have fallen to another napoleon. And as his army rampages across Asia in the name of the greater good, the monopolists pop the champagne at their ability to defy all forms of regulation.

But the army is removed from the conformity that empowers its single edge. The society of the militarist army hive-mind conforms to retain its hardness, to pack 100 men in to a submarine and have them run like part of the machine… to meld men into the very machine that most religion disdains as mammon, or some secular fallen aspect to sensual defection, robotically enhanced, society is utterly conformed to its system of state authoritarianism and socialism for the military elites that they can rule like dukes and not be dissatisfied to rebel subtly in the greater command of things.

And so we all are to be ‘conformed’ to the brainwashing of the day, that we all learn to repeat the convenient truths the gatekeepers are testing with, and through such a semantic delusion, the new militarist society is planned to spread around the world as the new economy walls in every person in to a mideival hut, beholden to their company bosses for the priviledge of work, and for that, conformity to the 9-5 complicity of ‘Yes. Whatever you say, Bossman.’

We are not able to be stupid anymore, ignorant at all, people are so busy pretending to be smart and expert to the tune of the bossman, and the smartest are fearful of being knocked off the top of the hill, as if knowledge is a competition of violence to make the most money for your bigger and better capabilities. Being ignorant, is to be ridiculed, to be declared a fundamentalist, as by our culture we are all rigidly conformed to a set of social narratives with fundamentalist precision. One where likely as an individual, like unreflected has not exposed how much what seems to be special about you, is as common as plastic, preprogrammed in every movie, and now that nothing is unique, and there are clones of everything you say, do, fuck, or think somewhere else on the planet, then who made bush god?
