Well what’s a lazy
neo liberal activist to do?
The planets heating up,
the rich are getting richer,
the poor are getting poorer,
the monies is coming
from ‘somewheres’
globalization will create
a super wealthy class
of which i will be a member
rich countries are getting poorer
the average well being
is going down
in terms of health and education,
the prisons in the us are full
crimes against other humans
crimes against property
and surprisingly
crimes against self…
just carrying is trouble…
drugs that is
guns are fine
and poor countries
like the Philippines
poverty is not improving
the material world is shaping us
as Marx clearly understood
the nightmare of sitting
in front of screens
cut off from life, each other
and our selves…this is urban.
Subsistence farmers want to improve their lives so the narrative goes or so the religious redemption story goes which seems to run deep…the next life will be better or worse so if i am born seven foot two and co-ordinated i believe i deserve my fame and wealth due to attributes i did not work for my height and my co ordination i can not be proud of something i had no choice in unless i
believe in some divine spirit or meta narrative which is evolving which seems to be the case as the world becomes more and more complex,
most people look to simplify…
the rich neo liberals who go to the farms and write books about their experience…which is more bliss like, than fighting with the communists on an island in the Philippines…
here no one wants to shoot
you for working the land unless you own it…
remember the diggers…
this land is my land
this land is your land…
forget about the owners…
if you(most of you) imagine
they don’t exist
they don’t…
owners that is…
this cannot be understood
through the lens of capitalism
which is my cup of sorrow.
