(Thus the Powell-Memo/Ayn-Rand Moral Imbecility That Perpetuates 'American Exceptionalism' Dooms Us All to Ecogenocidal Extinction)
CRADLE-TO-GRAVE AYN RANDIFUCATION -- maliciously seductive conditioning in the principles of Mein Kampf1 and the Powell Memo
that make tyranny fun and profitable for the plutocrats and inescapably
deadly for all the rest of us -- has become the sole determinant of the
quality of life in today's United States.
This
remains the one pivotal truth of our existence no matter how
frantically we might try to ignore or deny the skyrocketing horrors of
its obvious results,
a frog-boiled compound of deliberately ruinous afflictions that make it
excruciatingly obvious we are never again to be granted even the
tiniest mercy of an antidote, much less an actual cure.
These ultimately non-survivable assaults include:
- The death-blows -- whether physical or mental -- endlessly dealt us by the fascists, ChristoNazis, Original Nazis and all the other antihumans vengefully massing on the global Right:
- The socioeconomic fragmentation the equally ego-driven USian Left imposes on us with the innumerable fads of identity-politics and zero-tolerance "political correctness" it employs to blind us to the urgent reality of ecogenocidal class war;
- The me-first recidivism by which We the People of the 99 Percent are endlessly conditioned to perpetuate our own socioeconomic powerlessness;
- The murderous coup of 22 November 1963, to which -- with the terror and terrorism of at least a dozen more political murders -- our Overlords have since added the police-state guarantee of their own ever-more-obviously irreversible omnipotence;
- The nearly two million children, women and men our Masters slew in Southeast Asia to begin transforming the global-enslavement agenda of Neoliberalism into the ecogenocidal agenda of the terminally White Christian USian Empire;
- And -- last but by no means of lesser significance -- the apocalyptic revelation implicit in the defeat of the Soviet Union: specifically that there will never again be a people or nation on this planet allowed to develop the capability of overthrowing our conquerors by any means less suicidal than thermonuclear war.
Thus
we are infinitely more paralyzed by subjugation than our officially
enslaved ancestors could have ever imagined -- so subjugated, in lethal
fact, that even the most far-fetched possibility of liberation is now
eternally beyond our reach -- "eternally" used here in the sense our
species' self- destruction-by-patriarchy will be literally everlasting.
