Falling

Crowdfund Israeli spyware surveillance on your own government to keep them from selling the nation to BlackRock while the world burns and billionaires masturbate in low earth orbit

Organize a grassroots whatever campaign so plastic politicians can feed you word salad with an ivory spork until armageddon

Vote vote vote vote for Murder Stealing Slavery because if you don't then Stealing Slavery Murder might win
Get the Monsanto vaccine in one arm and the Google vaccine in the other while the TV man on every channel says everything's normal and the Pentagon needs your insulin money
Ask your doctor about Sedentrol™ to mute the gnawing sensation that you should release the parrots in your chest and fly with them to freedom instead of cranking a gear in a cubicle which turns billionaires into trillionaires
INVEST INVEST INVEST in crypto it's computer money for libertarians

Buy Bootcoin buy Copcoin buy Narnium I heard Elon just tweeted about it

Baby we're gonna rule this whole damn shanty town
We greet bosses with tourniquet smiles forced through oceans of pain and make small talk about the soldiers patrolling our streets

Lamborghini lampreys parasite our stomachs as we swim amnesiac through transhumanist-infested petrochemicals and dream of Someday
I don't know where this is all going mommy I'm falling we're all falling and we don't know where we're falling to

We scream together as we tumble past corporate logos and Ivy League rapists and a strange stillness at the center of everything that we'd never really noticed before
Don't be afraid baby momma's gonna catch you

Momma's gonna try and catch you

Momma's gonna leave you bleeding safely on the floor

Stealing someone's labor is worse than stealing their property, because it's theft of their life; you can replace property, but you can't replace hours of life. And rigging the system so people need to work longer hours in order to survive is this form of theft at mass scale.
Right now it's ass backwards: people have to spend their lives away from their loved ones in pointless jobs, and if you tell the cop your employer stole hours from you he'll just shrug while if your employer tells the cop you stole a company iPad you'll be hauled off in chains.
This would all be a lot less confusing if we said people get paid by the Life Unit instead of by the hour, because it makes it much clearer what you're actually trading. "You want a unit of my life for seven dollar bills and a quarter? Fuck you."

This is where I'm at. It's clear that there are wealth transfers and authoritarian agendas being opportunistically advanced in myriad ways on myriad fronts which can be opposed on a case-by-case basis without believing everything I read from the plandemic crowd.
The way Covid is being used to advance brazen government censorship and facilitating the rising inequalities and corruption of capitalism, the risk of mandatory vaccines and vaccine passports, these are concrete things you can oppose without disappearing down weird rabbit holes.
This is in contrast to things I'm not comfortable taking a hard stance on since my artist brain can't really wrap itself around the science of the virus itself and the various measures used to address it. I'm glad people are questioning these things, it's just not my role.

For Every Whistleblower They Make An Example Of, They Prevent A Thousand More

"In other words, if you tell the public the truth about your government's crimes, you will be made an example of so nobody else tries to do that." #DanielHale

For Every Whistleblower They Make An Example Of, They Prevent A Thousand More (Audio)

"All US government statements about authoritarianism in other nations are invalidated by its treatment of whistleblowers and journalists."

What we need first, more than the end of capitalism or statism or any other ism, is real transparency. We need people's vision of what's going on in the world unobscured by government/corporate/financial secrecy and propaganda. Once we can see, we can figure things out from there
How can we navigate toward a healthy world when we can't even see what's happening? Militaries understand that you need intelligence before you can act efficaciously; you need to see/know what you're dealing with. Truth is hidden and obscured from us, precisely for this reason.
That's what Assange was going for when he founded WikiLeaks: a tool to help the people see and know what's going on in the world so we can act in an informed way.

That's also why he's in prison.

"I don't like the US ruling the world with nonstop violence either, but if it wasn't us it'd be China!"

No unipolar global hegemon ever once existed in human history until three decades ago. Stop thinking of it as some unbreakable law of nature that there must always be one.
The idea that China wants to become the next unipolar dominator assumes (A) China has the same values and interests as western imperialists, and (B) that Beijing is looking at the US empire eating itself alive and thinking "Yeah, that looks awesome! That could be us someday!"
Saying you can't end the US empire because China will replace it is the same as saying you can't stop raping someone because then someone else would rape them.

They and their clique have been trying to pressure and cajole me into writing about a global Covid conspiracy for over a year, and I'm just not going to say something that I don't know is true. I just won't. I don't care how much misdirected rage they're able to whip up about me.
I'm reluctant to even address this because any time I do whatever I say gets spun in the most insanely negative interpretation possible, bits are snipped out of context dishonestly, and no good comes of it. They're the most disgustingly bad faith faction I've ever encountered.
Every mistake I’ve ever made in this job was the result of listening to other people instead of trusting my gut and moving with my own intuition and inspiration. I'm too experienced at this point to ever let anyone cajole me into writing about their pet topic in their way.
