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 potential. But for most, public education is a process of avoiding forms of prosecution, persecution, or outright execution. Thus, the need to find mechanisms of escape.

Topping the coping list is of course sex, drugs, Hip-Hop and Rege-ton. But ask any counselor with some wit and common sense and most will agree; the ultimate goal is to withdraw from the world and get noticed as little as possible or narcissistically inflate self to be bigger than one’s surroundings (e.g. the bully, the gang member or the teacher’s pet). Put briefly, individuals cease trying to find one’s self-identity and simply become an automaton; just adopt one of the predictable personalities offered by the surrounding social cultural patterns and lose the conscious fear of powerless aloneness. By the time high school graduation comes, those that make it are now ready to be trusted with the next process of indoctrination: College! The place where one acquires the official papers to join the rank and file of capital gain and possible fame.

Thus, it’s nearly essential to at least play the game of surrendering self and become automatized, another important cog in the socio-economic wheel for personal achievement and prosperity. But to assume that it’s all normal and acceptable contradicts the general idea that we’re free to think and feel as one pleases: To sincerely believe one’s thoughts and actions are authentic is a dangerous illusion to have while trying to navigate the slippery slopes of daily living. It blocks one’s ability to identify and remove conditions responsible for the current state of human affairs; a state where fear of want tomorrow fosters hording today because of shortcomings experienced yesterday; a perpetual state that keeps participants robotically chasing each other’s tails and justifies the global game of dog-eats-dog!

WARNING! Do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind to prove what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God (Rom 12:2) – Fight for Utopia! A place where finally found; a religion that pours into the bitter chalice of the suffering human species some sweet, calming drops of spiritual opium, some drops of love, hope and faith to hold on to. Heaven on Earth is possible!

 

WARNING

 

Warning: You have been institutionalized

Sterilized from the function of production

Marginalized for the function of surplus pro-creation

And made complacent to exist in the matrix of systemic cooperation

With the obliteration of the nation without a hint of objection

 

Warning: You have been institutionalized

To sit at the banquet feast of lies

Where the flags of justice and liberty for all allegedly flies

Where the murmur of discrimination in whisper thrives

And the dust of the dream blinds the eyes

While the ashes of the soul grows cold

 

Warning: You have been institutionalized

Sterilized! Marginalized! And Compromised

To believe in Homeland Security within its lurking shadows of triply

Where FBI, CIA, Masons and Minute Men See it all

 

Warning: You have been institutionalized and compromised

While the shuttle readies to take the chosen few

Somewhere beyond the moon just because

Because They’re Petrified!  Because They’re Mortified!

That the institutionalized might wake up – might realize

and rise

To break their present pack of lies

 Warning! It’s time for the institutionalized

To rise against the present pack of lies

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...

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....
