I watched the Hunger Games for the first time last night - it's a searing image of a dystopic future when humanity has been sold into compartmentalized slavery while an urban bourgeoisie clinks expensive champagne glasses as they cheer innocent children on to a violent death in a game of reality television that sickly employs virtual manipulation. This fantastical sci-fi flick stars Jennifer Lawrence as the main protagonist - the Dark Feminine courageously battling the establishment as even she noxiously falls into playing their psychotic game. And we, a western, wanting public, confuse reality for myth as we lift this budding, Hollywood starlet onto our shoulders. The thing is, my friends, we're not far off from such a numbing existence - especially if we don't refuse to fight and end the exploitation of others by a schizophrenic culture that glorifies violence. VIOLENCE ISN'T ENTERTAINMENT.
Pay attention, my friends. Facts don't lie: millions of American dollars end up back in the hands of billionaires as "tax subsidy" for their family farms. This is what the Farm Bill, and pretty much any "tax" that everyday people are forced to pay, really is - loop holes for the rich to get richer and the middle and lower classes to remain stuck in a life-force killing, energy-sucking existence of survival. Did you know that Apple is currently beeing sued by the country of Italy for hiding millions of dollars off-shore? Apparently, it's everyday business for multi-national corporations to evade paying the high cost of their business on planet Earth by taking advantage of Ireland's 12.7% corporate tax law. Meanwhile, I've got the U.S. government demanding that I pay back-taxes of $700+ dollars for 2007 - a year when I, maybee, made upwards of $20,000.
If I really show up to "atone" for my financial mayhem of the past few years, then there will bee a higher number purported for what I owe. Although I am not adding to the world economy by creating "brilliant new products, or services, that will advance our humanity," my carbon footprint on planet Earth is quite nominal. I share everything I have and I have very little - including no home and no car. THE WAY I LIVE MY EVERYDAY LIFE IS RELATIVELY PEACEFUL TO PLANET EARTH AND HER MILLIONS OF INHABITANTS. I'm not mass producing products that will simply end up in a dump. I am not buying more than my fair share of gasoline - which is the lubricant of our planet's joints that is forcefully sucked out it and violently stolen from other lands at the intended loss of innocent lives. How is any of this fair or just? IT'S NOT.
YOU MUST WAKE UP.
And I know I'm not alone - I know that you too are struggling, to make ends meet, to get out of debt, to enjoy a peaceful livelihood filled with vibrant energy, LOVE, emotional and physical intimacy, real time touch, affection and sex, etc. Ask yourself: do people or businesses that already have millions of dollars in profits need to "save money," or receive special incentives for simply beeing wealthy? The answers are obvious. The thing is, however, MONEY is not going to solve our way outta this. We can't buy our way to peace, contentment, happiness or LOVE. WE HAVE TO STOP ALTOGETHER.
We need to scrap the system - because it's a machinated parent that keeps its orphaned children dependent on its tits and fearful of its impotent balls. The only thing is, its breasts and testicles do not produce life-affirming, nutritious fluid. So, we keep suck, suck, sucking, like Vampires desperately hungry for an immortal nourishment that never comes. Thus, the root of our problem is SELFISH GREED, beecause we truly can not get enough in this ill-fated relationship. And this greediness is supported by a violent, war-mongering cultural more and ethic.
MEN, YOU MUST WAKE UP AND RECLAIM YOUR VIBRANT, HEALTHY, SOULS. And, WOMEN, YOU TOO MUST ARISE FROM YOUR SLUMBER AND TAKE BACK THESE POWER~FULL, LIFE CREATING BODIES. If you're chasing after money, you're not awake. Period. If you're chasing after the workout in order to maintain a boyish frame of lines and no curves then you're not awake. Period.
Yes, we're all conscious beeings, of course, but we are not all conscientiousness. Beecause Waking Up Hurts, it means acknowledging that this shit sucks (no matter how much gratitude you cultivate, or how much feigned 'happiness' you practice with spiritual materialism purchases.) We need to start collectively feeling our anger and quit demonizing those of us who have long been in touch with TRUTH. AND ONE TRUTH IS THAT WE'RE NOT POWERLESS TO CHANGE ANY OF THIS - this is the biggest illusion of all. We just have to simply decide to bee honest with ourselves, first and foremost, and then commit to the discomfort of transformation and change.
So, quit with the entertainment - the bobbing and weaving like preposterous cocks clueless to the reality of our planet now and quit with the petty jealousy while competing for scraps. NOW IS THE TIME TO RECLAIM OUR HUMANITY. Otherwise, we beecome like our disembodied, machine-like parent.
We're counting on YOU ~ we need U.S.
