dark moon sights

 

 
People enjoying organized hate
because they’ve too little of
meaning to do
Why do we deny our need for
meaningful activity?
So ready to destroy ourselves
over frivolities, to suborn tragedies
for bored amusement, so confused
about who we want to be.
 
 
 
Stop panicking
Detach from screaming media
propaganda on all sides.
Become clear and calm.
Start from first principles.
What is you true goal?
Imagine it in great detail.
See it.  Feel it.  Smell it.
Embrace and engage with
being there, having it all
right here.
Then, back up.  See all the
surrounding circumstance.
See the steps from here to there,
in ever greater detail.  Learn your course.  Then look,
to find the others, those with goals
close enough or tangential to
your own.  Meet and speak and
discover how to work together
to get where we want to be,
appreciating all we are and do
to become our community.
 
 
 
Do you think “government” is an
evil monolith?  Government is a concept
which in practice is wildly varied, even
in the same place in different areas,
times and issues.  Humans invent and
run our governments.  They are not
imposed from on high.
 
 
 
You who are applauding, supporting
autocratic rule, how do you possibly
think that could work out well for you?
Look at people’s lives as we have so
recently under the evil “Communist”
tyrannies we have raged against.
Not just poverty and oppression, but
the endless hopelessness, crushing
without escape, hardening, deadening
so that constant threat no longer
matters.
Is engorging hate of strangers of
whom you’ve no actual knowledge so
addictive that to joust at them is worth
any price?  Meanness worth any hellish
end?
 
 
 
If we show force in self-defense,
Oh, they might use that as excuse to
harm – do you believe if they decide to
strike us down they would desist
because we backed down in fear
and obeisance?
 
 
 
Everybody is a whole lot of different
bodies with a whole lot of differences.
 
 
 
Science is not synonymous with reality.
Science is what mankind has thus far been
able to discern within that infinite landscape.
 
 
 
calm down; think more effectively --
you're not "awake" you're panicking
instead of finding your power. The government
is what WE make it when we stop panicking
 and start organizing calmly for our common good.
 
 
 
the party that invented cancel culture as a thing
to inveigh against is also the party doing most
of the canceling -- banning books, banning speech,
banning rights, banning easy voting and
representation for "minorities", banning
any/everything they don't control -- like their mentor, Putin
