Beyond Orwell


If the polls are accurate and truly representative of people, it appears that more than three quarters of the American population approve of state-sponsored mass murder of anyone, domestic or foreign, the government (and by extension, the corporatocracy) doesn't like.

I could go on and on about the implications, the consequences, etc. But I'm not going to. First, because it should be more than evident to anyone with both a brain and a soul. If a person lacks either or both, they're not even deserving of thoughts about them. Second, because there is nothing I can say that countless amazing souls working for a better world haven't already said.

Nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care. As much as I despise this stuff and it is always haunting me, I'm ready to accept whatever happens. It's the only thing I really can do now.

I gave up on Americans long ago. Perhaps others may still disagree, but I really do believe it's up to the rest of the world to take the lead. If they can, a lot of good can come about. If they fail... humanity's had a good run.
