RE: Our Economy Is DESIGNED To F**k Ninety Percent Of Us
We live in a Kleptocracy. Everything is designed to steal from those at the bottom and pass up the chain to those above. This is the essence of 'civilisation'. The only solution ( and one we will probably be forced to adopt) is a return to living in harmony with the planet in a reciprocal relationship. Basically hunters and gatherers living in tribes.
How is it stealing if there is more created for you?
How much do you 'return to the planet'?
Your first comment does not make sense.
As Derek Jensen notes we need to live in harmony with the planet instead of raping it for its natural resources.
"Everything is designed to steal from those at the bottom and pass up the chain to those above."
As you stated it is being stolen from you, unless you are 'above'.
You never answered my second.
and C.
How are you raping the planet... no, nevermind don't tell me.
I'm not into that mess.
It's basically a pyramid scheme - the land itself is at the bottom followed by animals. Our society is admittedly complex but there are most definitely hierarchies, and I would say I was nearer the top then the bottom given the access I have to computers and the internet for example. I often feel there is little I can do in the face of the Juggernaut that is civilization. I have been to anti-fracking demos, don't drop litter, am kind to animals, recycle, try to be conscious of the impact my life has on the planet. Not enough, I know. Perhaps it would be a good start if we gave, say, all our rivers, the same rights as corporations?
rivers don't care though. they will be consumed by us or animals then, it will be wasted, then evaporated and dropped on someone else or something else. It has happened way before we got here and will continue without us. Think of it will all this fake 'global warming' your rivers will be fuller. So whats the problem?
How do you know rivers don't care?
Oh?
You do know?
Do they speak to you at night?
You get e-mails from the club?
