Future Hi - Future Goodbye

Selfishness, greed, thirst for power and whatever other strange and dark Machievellian fantasies they might be entertaining, mean jack squat at this point. The state of the world is crumbling. We are dying. Civilization is on it's last legs. This charade called market capitalism has taken us to the brink. Every long-term and intelligent strategic maneuver that could have shifted things toward a sustainable growth vector have been scrapped in favor of this batshit crazy neo-con global zero-sum end-game. Stupid, stupid, and more stupid.


Another victim of the blues?

Makes their lives more difficult ... WHAT? What the hell are you talking about? People ignore the truths expressed above every time they wake up in the morning. That's what people do. If we actually acknowledged it, we'd be duty-bound to do something about it. Instead, we keep our heads down and hope desperately that worldwide catastrophe doesn't happen in our lifetime.

And yet, on a certain level, I know where he's coming from. I share his sense of ennui and futility -- even is said ennui and futility are uncalled for.

Perhaps it actually would be empowering for us to admit -- for once -- that the world is in a dreary state, if not to explicitly revel in it.

Or we can just keep clicking channels and hope it all goes away.
