THE
MAINSTREAM MEDIA Propaganda Machine dares not acknowledge the
symptomatic meaning of the ongoing series of governmental shutdowns that began during the Clinton/Gingrich feud.
To do otherwise -- to acknowledge the federal government is now turned off and on and off again
with exactly the same fuck-you moral imbecility its Capitalist owners
demonstrate in wage cuts and factory closures -- the Josef-Goebbels
wanna-bees who disseminate our daily doses of disinformation would have
to at least hint that such events are symptomatic not of minor
"adjustments" (as alleged by the Banksters), but rather of the
crumbling foundation that precedes total structural failure.
In Marxian retrospect, the Clinton/Gingrich shutdown was an early disclosure of the bitter fight within the ruling cabal
-- actually the One Capitalist Party of Two Names (OCPOTN) -- over how
rapidly and forcefully the United States Working Class was to be reduced
to ChristoNazi theocracy and the modern equivalents of serfdom and
slavery, the current euphemism for which is of course Neoliberalism.
A
far better term would be "Neroloberalism," an economic system in which
the slavemasters fiddle and fondle and set the forests alight and we the
people die accordingly.
Here
too -- if I may be forgiven the McLuhanism that became a prime cliche
of the 1960s -- "the medium is the message." The "medium" is the
shut-down itself; the "message" is the aforementioned fuck-you, not
just to the 800,000 federal employees who won't get their holiday
paychecks, but to each and every one of us who have ever been dependent
on a paycheck to survive.
In
other words, what our overlords are saying is "now that we are the sole
(and soul) owners of the government, we can treat it like any other
Capitalist venture...and you workers can't do a damn thing."
