Lawmakers, Parliamentarians, Power-Hungry Monkeys, Democracy’s Bastard gods…

And the leaders decided to fuck with the people,

exploit, manipulate, violate.

They did it because they could,

and then some more,

it made them feel *so* good.

Everything Is Relative (aka: Are You My Relative Too?)

Regardless of what your American relatives tell you,

everything, indeed, is relative:

truth, justice and the American way,

is truth, lies and compromise.

…

The answer to the question depends upon time, place

and who is doing the asking.

…

Objectivity is admirable but, alas, illusive,

and screw liberal “New York Times” hubris.

Everything is

what the powers that be

want it to be.

Democracy & Megalomania, Seduction & Delusion (aka Girls Gone Wild… Waving Flags… Intriguing Fingering)

The megalomaniac is a democrat,

he/she/it wants to fuck as many lives

as will choose to be seduced.

Turns out,

alas,

the fools aren’t useful

at all.

Democracy: We Like It When Things Go Our Way

The Resounding Voice of The People

has spoken,

loudly, according to media reports.

“Democracy in action

in the Land of the Free!”

A solid 51% of citizens agree.

… Today was a good day for democracy

(We like it when things go our way) …

Taxes, Lies & Death

The government taxes you,

to provide

and to protect you…

With and from what? (I ask)

… Sinkholes, potholes,

a trail of breadcrumbs through the forest …

Indeed, the system taxes

and exploits you for itself!

*They* create and perpetuate

shit and spectres,

fear and loathing

the lubricant of their machine.

The authorities are parasitic,

the populace delusional

and busy exploiting their

friends, neighbours

and own subjects.

Change?

 

Change is good,

change is awesome,

when it is for the better.

Alas,

it seems to be the human tendency

to embrace negative change,

the kind that makes things worse,

the kind that complicates

and screws people up,

destroying hopes and aspirations.

Such change is often chosen for us

by the powers that be,

or we are convinced to “choose” it ourselves

by trend-setters,

society shapers,

captains of industry.

…

Democracy and other conspiracies

to keep us down.

…

Change is good,

when it is good,

but *those* changes are rarely embraced.

Instead, we cherish the worst aspects of the present

and pile on bad changes,

disingenuously called “progress”.

…

To be human is to suffer.

Shit.

Sycophants & Press Barons… The Fallacy Of Liberal Democracy…

The newspaper’s full of lies,

sad surprise,

pretend integrity,

John Bull(shit),

bulwark of democracy,

deluding the masses

and buying

election victories

for the controlling classes,

puppet masters,

since the days of yore

and

forever more.

“The Russian’s Did It!” (aka The US Government Has New Information Which Directly Connects Russian Leadership To Actions Which Undermined Our Corrupt Democracy. But The Information Is Classified, So We Can’t Tell You The Details, Just Believe Us, Take Us On Our Word…)

Visit the newsroom,

if you dare.

For some it’s a vibrant place,

information, process, disseminate, fast-pace.

For me it’s depressing,

an overload of noise and soundbites,

mostly meaningless shit.

The editors push,

the journalists (they don’t have time or freewill to properly think)

churn out crap,

factoids and innuendos,

the readers are ready to be fed.

Welcome to the Times, New York, London,

the Sun rises and falls, Daily News, Daily Mail,

hearts fail.

Welcome to democracy’s bulwark.

Welcome to lies and fear.

The People Have Spoken…

“Populists!” the Liberals sneer,

but… isn’t that Democracy?
