Ranting Strativarius – March 2019
I’ve been getting a lot of emails from “Variety”, and such a thing seems to “make sense”. Or cents, or scents, and/or across the board. I read the newspaper, the news magazines, the progressive wire. I hear the occasional mad firebrand speaking his war and peace. Here we lie, a stye, chaos / ordered –
What are you doing with your incredible wealth, such that this mad carnival we call American Empire be justified?
You have the power. How are you using it? Well then…
That’s not good enough. You know what I’m seeing with all our labor and energy, and great blessings our country has given, and we have taken, upon the backs of slaves, that if there be some justification for all this madness… I watch our infrastructure tore up, shutting down businesses, and people who can’t afford to support their local enterprise, and that which could be supported with much capital, seem to wish to build ever more CAR WASHES and MINI MALLS. If you dare to know better, you gotta do better.

We are the empire of the planet with its thumbs on the scales all over the world, with laws and military greater than any time in history.
Do you think that a faction of people in a tiny war-torn country, on the other side of the world, ARE A THREAT?
Know that, if you believe so, you have been gamed.
We now know, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that media will and does lie for the benefit of a select few, who stand to gain, and admit, profit with conflict, thumbs on the scales of justice. Seems it could just as well be the biggest gangster that runs the show.
That fact don’t mean that they can’t be taken down. This is why I practice the fight against the champ. If I’m raising any fist in anger, it be upon the ruler.
I pray for our army. For what a dishonorable warrior that beat upon the weak.
Ultimately, we ought rather sooner battle in the world of words. Could you call this “civil society”? Dueling with great consequence, it certainly is, and I would argue a much more humane manner to deal with disputes. Fact of the rights of speedy trial, defensive counsel, right to address accusers, and on.
Oh, and by the way, our society is bullshit, it’s killing the world, and it’s getting worse every day.
