I keep looking around and seeing things I wish I didn't see. Things my country is going through, things my country is doing, and things my government is doing.
And I just want to point out a few things, not that I'm taking sides because when it comes to the many different authority figures that function within our country anyone who knows me knows where I stand.
When hurricane Katrina hit, it was bad, it was really bad. There were so many people living outdoors, widows, dead children, dead bodies floating in the streets, people killing each other, looting, arson.
We suck in disasters, we always panic and even if a few didn't, something apocalyptic would have us living in a Mad Max type of environment with nice people losing every fight. Eventually everyone becomes paranoid and turns into the jerkoffs who want their own kingdom of psychos to run the world with; kill everyone before someone tries to kill you.
And people were furious! They were looking at The Man and asking, "Where the fuck are you, you lazy bum! don't you prepare for anything? Oh wait, you prep for war all day, that's what you've been doing huh? Our tax dollars at work again."
So, they start preparing, like we wanted them to, like they should have been. We saw this, we saw this and we FREAKED!
"OH SHIT, PRISON CAMPS AND PORTABLE COFFINS! DISASTER DRILLS! MILITARY ARMOUR AND TRAINING! OH NO, WE'RE DEAD! ITS THE GOVERNMENTOCALYPSE, OH LAWDY LAWD!"
Yeah, they are enforcing the order of newness, but that isn't whats going on, Alex Jones has some good points but sometimes he just goes with whatever crap people sometimes email or fax him, and I have been guilty of just reposting something without even reading it, but sometimes when you don't have time because you're at work glancing at your phone you just post it quick and go home and read it then.
And I know it happens a lot, I know some people do that when they comment and the "correction police" show up to shove their mistake up their ass.
And there we are, at each other's throats again, like the good little doggies The Man has raised.
But they want something big, they want to have that Electric Eye (Judas Priest) on every human! They want to be BATMAN! Well, if you read comic books like I do, you might have read one of the best comic stories with the best artwork I have ever seen in my life called 'Kingdom Come'.
In this comic -- like many others that involve Batman, S.H.I.E.L.D, etc. where you see what I'm about to tell you is the norm -- He has patrol-bots that watch over Gotham city, not because he is too old -- which by the timeline of this story he is too old -- but because in the past (within this story), Bane, among many others, was told The Bats real identity; broke into his mansion, caught The Bat off guard, kicked his ass and then broke his back. So now, Bruce spends his life in his cave in front of his security monitors controlling his anti-crime-bots while encased in a metal exoskeleton, back-brace... thing, just watching the city and stopping crimes as they occur or while they're happening, either way, he knows about it.
This is what The Man wants, to patrol the world, to have an ear on every wall, an eye around every corner.
To tell you the truth I want it too... almost, but like all things there has to be compromise; I'll give up my guns when they do, rid the entire world of all war machines except for sticks and knives and I'm in.
Why waste time on all this self-destructive hobby? Lets get ourselves into space! Let's make submarines out of diamonds so we can explore the bottom of the deepest seas! WOOOO! Lets do something worth doing! The world doesn't need a Batman!
Ok we do... but not to watch us... to watch The Man.
LET'S BE SPACE LORDS!
