May/2024 - New Slaves for the New Global Economy - Part 5 - Sick is Good Business


 

For a sick society to thrive it needs slightly touched citizens. To be blame free it needs to allow and use several neurotic behaviors: Sado-Masochism (to master and be mastered), Narcissism (to be self-absorbed), and Hedonism (excessive pleasure seeking) are perfect lubricants to sustain the wheels of the present socio-economic system. It needs the American dream to be like the roadrunner, always fleeting while leaving the coyote, and its traditions, in the dust of decay. But you are not like the coyote. Unlike the old slaves, you are a very resilient Automaton; you’re stronger than a locomotive full of back breaking disappointments and demands, you’re running faster than the lethal bullets of progress, and are able to leap tall buildings of accumulated debt in a single bound. What you can’t handle is admitting that you are tied to the ball and chain of capital gain … It Terrifies You! The fact that you’re wrestling with feeling helpless and powerless is compounded by the constant threat of being put out of the herd to face the world alone. It makes you want to put your head in the sand and leave your ### in the air for the highest bidder to spank. Dare you disagree? Let’s see!

The automatization of individuals in modern society has increased the hopeless insecurity of the average person … thus he is ready to submit to the new world liberties which offer him security and relief from growing, restless doubt. But the authoritarian system ( … ) undermining our democracy ( … ) with a touch of feudalism ( … ) has overstepped its boundaries and is now grappling for answers within a Trump based Nazi Fascism ( … )  able to trigger the young, and working middle class, toward acts of anarchy (as recently seen in the storming of the white house).  Need you wonder why the sudden constant media ads regarding mental health opportunities (for employment and treatment). It gives testimony that certain things beyond the automatons ability to accommodate are happening; depression, insomnia, anxiety, suicide, and murder are not just on the rise but being socially normalized and accommodated. Thus, though most become just another cog plugged into the matrix wheels of essential daily functioning, some automatons become like puss filled pimples exploding all over the face of humanity. And yes! Some automatons have learned to play automaton with little to no negative effects.  How?

Accepting the capitalist system of punishment and reward as absolute, one insulates self from the truths of life, liberty, and justice for all and unconsciously proceeds with a quest for conquest using the three favored Neurotic behaviors to achieve a safe and satisfactory journey through the various cycles of socio-political economics; the Sado-Masochist worships authority from above and treats the subordinate with contempt, justifies actions with self-absorbed Narcissism, and absolves the conscience with deceptive Hedonistic pleasure seeking. Face it and get over yourself. From top to bottom, rich or poor, this formula for success works across race, color, creed, gender, and class. So, remember: Sick is Good Business. For those who understand the game and are able to play without losing self … work hard, play harder, and achieve knowing its ok: The true source of fascism is found in the human soul not in the economics …. Point! Check yourself out.


On The Hammer Of Truth

 

When a people have been so indoctrinated

That you can hit them on the head

With the hammer of truth

And cause little more than an echo

Then truly

They have been made ready for the Matrix

Where they, once alive and dangerously on the rise

Suddenly robotically animated

To serve with indifference …

To run like a mouse in a maze

Addicted to seeking and pressing A button

for a scheduled ration of punishment and reward

A paycheck – Hush Money

Guilt and conscious free …

But let swing The Hammer of Truth to fall where it may

And let its echo ring long and loud

Till heard among the members of Assembly

Till heard among the members of Congress

Till the very Presidents chair itself

Be trembled by the sound of a people disgruntled onto staged outrage

As the hammer of truth continues to echo

The sound of a country being displaced

“BECAUSE”

It’s not about Obama, Carter, or any other to bother

But about the many Mamma’s and Papa’s

the true crime stoppers and protectors of our neighborhood borders

Fully armored to stand and holler With the hammer of truth well in hand

SO

Let’s emotionalize to mobilize a compromise

That will sterilize the commotion in the pollution of confusion.

To unleash the potential of human interaction and intervention

Let the heavens fall till the truth be told …

Let Lightening course our veins

And Thunder roar with every beat of our hearts …

Let our tears flow like a rain storm

To nourish and strengthen our soul

In ways to brave emotionalizing a cause to mobilize

A compromise that will sterilize the commotion

And the pollution of confusion in our minds

Say

Till the truth be told - till righted be the present strife

Till the fuss and fight be stilled

Let the heavens fall

To emotionalize and mobilize

To sterilize the pollution

Away from our human potential

To love and make compromise

July/August Article: Crime, Punishment and Just-U.S.

Image
  Crime, Punishment and Just-U.S . (part 1 of 2) How ironic! While preparing to celebrate Independence Day, America owns the world’s highest prison rate (2.12 million incarcerated with 21% of them unsentenced), has “permanently” striped 5 million citizens of their voting rights, created private/for profit prison opportunities, offers select companies’ contracts for inmate daily essentials (e.g. toothpaste, underwear, cloths, shoes), manipulates both the census count and its fund allocations (N.Y.C. inmates become cheap laborers and are counted as residents of the prisons town).   But, with a 500% crime increase over 40 years, incarceration is not an effective means of achieving public safety. “The broad effects which can be obtained by punishment in man are the increase of fear, the sharpening of the sense for cunning, and the mastery of achieving unmet desire (Nietzsche); therefore, punishment can tame/break a man, but does not make him better (hearted)." So “Laws and in...

New Slaves for the New Global Economy Part 9. Joining the Rank and File

  New Slaves for the New Global Economy Part 9.  Joining the Rank and File  Praise the Lord, Halle-leu, just don’t care what the devils gonna do. The new automatons are back in school, and the parental batons are getting passed on. September is here and it’s back to where the automaton assembly line awaits . Its linear, rote learning process (mandatory daily recitals) is ready to provide rewards for the best parrots and no carrots for those being identified and isolated to be left behind. No time for rehabilitation. Education is little more than social promotion so best learn to adapt and live with the constipation of the imagination. But isn’t this where finding self is supposed to be key – where the need to know who you are and what you want is the greatest discovery one can experience and achieve? Thank God for charter schools and experiential education programs using methods (e.g. the Montessori Schools) that lead young minds to exploring one’s areas of interest and...

March Article / 2021 - COMMON SENSE

Image
Buffalo Latino Village   COMMON SENSE When neighbors accept that “ It takes a village to fully raise a child ” STUFF HAPPENS! I grew up on such a block; a village within a village. I got punished because of neighbors ratting me out whenever caught doing or saying something out of line. Neighbors shared resources as simple as cups of sugar or milk. I didn’t like or understand it at the time but remember ; the name of the neighborhood cop that walked the beat and would take us to our parents instead of jail for trivial stuff, the mailman that delivered the mail with a smile, sprinkler caps put on fire hydrants for kids to cool off in the summer, and trees getting planted to beautify the blocks. That’s what united block associations can do to hold community boards accountable to use available resources (city, state, and federal projects and funds) for the betterment of the whole community. Sure, there will always be a few bad apples in the barrel; a drunk, a junkie, and/or a thief...

October Article / 2020 : Withholding Taxes for Community

Image
    Withholding Taxes for Community    part 2 of 3 Stated in previous edition, there is reason to turn to, and empower, Grassroot Community based organizations (CBO). WHY? Wonder how your taxes are spent only to feel helpless. Wonder how much of your tax dollars pay for sustaining the life style of civil servants like the Senate, Congress , etc. A LOT! If officials, paid a lot, were listening to the peoples cry “ enough of President Trump ”  (a popular opinion), how is it that the Senate, (representing the peoples voice), can refuse to impeach the president. Either somebody is not listening or somebody is not screaming load enough. So If they are not listening to THAT cry, can you expect such officials to listen to community needs. It’s time for “we the people” to turn to, and empower good old grassroot community-based organizations (CBO ) Time to enable them to take actions beyond simple protests and begin dethroning negligent officials obligated to assure...

June Article / 2021: HOUSING TERMITES

Image
Housing Termites The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree! Feudalism had kings, nobles, vassals, and lords. Capitalism has corporations, elected officials, regulators, and land developers. Their common goal: Distribution and management of land and resources among low/middle income tenants (peasants and indentured servants ). But don’t feel helplessly sad and afraid! Get relentlessly willing and able! Call transient residents’ “ cockroaches ” that come to enjoy a season of the night life and go, each time leaving apartments subject to further rent hikes. Call land developers’ lethal “ termites ” that come, see opportunity, plot long-term visions, and without the early intervention of qualified exterminators, proceed to execute a methodic plan to settle and expand with permanently devastating consequences on community demographics and existing infrastructure. But a bug is a bug! Just flip the switch and watch the light of truth send the night feasting players scrambling for cover....
