But Will Wolf's Fact-Fanged Satire Jump Start Our Redemption?
UNDER
ORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES, I would ignore the annual White House
Correspondents' Association Dinner. But the outcry for and against
Michelle Wolf's precedent-setting denunciations of the Trump/Pence
Regime and its enablers in the Democratic (sic) Party and in the
Mainstream Media propaganda machine have catapulted the event into a
major news item.
Why
do I see it as such? Because -- those who know me as a perpetual
pessimist please accept my apology for this forthcoming spasm of
optimism -- I believe Wolf's rightfully venomous characterizations of
our JesuNazi overlords and their nauseatingly obsequious enablers could
mark the beginning of a genuine transformation in our domestic political
discourse.
The
Mainstream Media will of course continue to serve its One Percent
masters by strumpeting lies and disinformation on command -- that is,
after all, the sole function of this uniquely USian, privately owned,
for-profit version of Josef Goebbels' Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda.
But
thanks to Wolf 's epic bravery -- and depending too on the severity of
the inevitable retaliation the One Percent and its vassals inflict upon
her in the days, weeks and months to come -- we the people may now be
notably less reluctant to publicly acknowledge the apocalyptic monster
the U.S. has become. Those who have hitherto been silenced by fear may,
now encouraged by Wolf's example, begin to speak up for themselves. And
the resultant outpouring of pent-up anti-Capitalist rage and anguish
could indeed grow into a revolutionary variant of #MeToo -- unless the Ruling Class radically accelerates its plans to effectively shut down social media for any communication more profound than mutual masturbation.
Meanwhile,
just as the Trump-Pence Regime repeatedly reveals, the rulers of
today's United States yearn for nothing so much as to become the Führers of a Fourth
Reich. They are determined to conquer and subjugate all the peoples of
the world and to exterminate any of us who might dare resist.
Nor
should we forget that same malevolent ambition is shared by both the
Republican and Democratic (sic) factions of the One Capitalist Party Of
Two Names (OCPOTN).
Thus, cloaked by Big Lies and deceptive euphemisms,
it predates Trump/Pence by at least six decades.
Indeed this is the most terrible secret Trump has shamelessly revealed to the world -- that Hillary's sadistically triumphant cackle is in fact the Empire's national anthem.
And that revelation -- the Trump/Pence normalization of the
white-majority JesuNazism the Democrats had hoped to keep hidden at
least until Hillary fulfilled her obscene fantasy of conquering Russia
-- is no doubt the main reason the Democrats so relentlessly despise
Trump himself.
That
said, what follows are my links to reports on Michelle Wolf's
performance as I had organized them before I realized their potentially
pivotal significance and elevated them to this week's lead story:

Proposed Korean Peace Treaty Exemplifies Our Remaining Potential
THE
HEADLINES ABOVE and the related text immediately below combine two very
different reports as if they were separate aspects of the same story --
which in oft-unacknowledged fact they truly are, intertwined like Yin and Yang.
One report -- "a new era of peace has begun"
-- applauds the inspiring progress the Koreans are making toward
establishing lasting peace on their peninsula. The key to their success
seems to be recognition by both Kim Jong-Un and Moon Jae-in of the
extent to which the Empire and its plutocratic owners profit by keeping
the ancient nation divided. The two Koreas -- culturally one nation
-- are thus quietly but fiercely fighting for the independence they
need to extricate themselves from the JesuNazi race to apocalypse. Thus
too the apparent success-by-negotiation of the two Korean heads of state
bids fair to be the most hopeful omen for human survival since the
Trump/Pence Regime took office.
The second text -- "(an) influential social scientist...has declared humanity 'doomed' due to its reliance on the burning of fossil fuels and the Capitalist economic system that ensures that dependence will continue"
-- describes our fate if we fail to throw off the shackles that bind us
to the Capitalist juggernaut. Ultimately, every one of these shackles
are traceable to Abrahamic doctrines, especially the belief Earth is no more than a notably sadistic trial court to which the sons of god are sent to prove their worthiness for heaven.
(The misogynistic wording of the preceding sentence, like the biblical
tract to which it links, accurately portrays the zero-tolerance male
supremacy at the core of all Abrahamic doctrines.) That's why the
Capitalists -- whom the Christians worship as exemplars of their cruel god
-- ignore our pleas to stop their depredations. Why bother to prepare
for a nonexistent future? Not only do the Capitalists continue their
obscene quest to wring profit from ecocidal ruin; the JesuNazis provide the Earth-is-evil rationale
(scroll down to the 10th and 11th grafs) that enables the Capitalists
to escalate their war on our Mother Earth. Both groups -- Capitalist
eco-rapists and Christian fanatics -- behave as if she -- not they --
were the sole reason the planet is turning hostile to sentient life.
Obviously they have concluded that as a species our only remaining human
hope is to die, pampered to senselessness, amidst an orgy of greedy
acquisition.
But
the dramatic breakthrough Moon Jae-in and Kim Jong-un have seemingly
accomplished on the Korean Peninsula -- a feat that only a few days ago
we were being told was impossible but is nevertheless relentlessly demanded not just by Koreans but by all mindful peoples of the world
-- gives us a little taste of what we might do if we truly put our
minds and bodies to it. Yes, it's still too soon to jump and cheer, but
most inside sources say the positive signs are undeniable. The question
of course is whether the Empire -- which depends on its South Korean presence to perpetuate a big chunk of profit for its military-industrial vassals -- will crush detente as it has so many times in the past.
If the majority of us begin doing as the Koreans began doing long before this (now-prophetic) report was published in 2016
-- that is, joining hearts and hands to save our planet from
apocalypse whether thermonuclear or environmental -- we might just
yet survive.
Frankly
I think what happened at Panmunjom on Friday is the most promising,
hope-inspiring omen we've seen here on this tragically afflicted planet
since 9/11 gave the Empire its long-sought rationale for flooring the
accelerator on its 84-year drive toward global fascism.
