The Last Chance Democracy Cafe

The Last Chance Democracy Cafe

I love it.

I love the honesty, decency and respect for reality, this ability to see beyond wishes and fears, to accept the world, as it is – question of age, combined with intelligence, creating wisdom out of knowledge out of experience.

But, alas...

exactly that seems to be signaling the near end of this blog. I hope, i’m wrong, but i fear, i’m right. Lesser and lesser replies must lead to resignation...

actually, it’s easy to understand: Because truth doesn’t sell...

people hate the truth, they always prefer the sugar-coated world of fairy tales – they want to be lied to, they want to hear, that all is fine, all is nice and wonderful and...

that especially THEY don’t have to worry and don’t have TO DO anything, that they can enjoy what they have and don’t have to bother about other humans, how their negligence and laziness and carelessness harms them by playing the tree monkeys: not to see, not to hear and not to speak about the evil done in their name, so that they can continue to steal and rob and rape or allow all that without bad conscience...

it’s said, that children behave like their parents: “like father, like son” – but it is also true, that the underlings behave like their bosses: “the fish rots from the head” or clearly spoken: “People get the government they deserve”.

Global Warming? Don’t be annoying! THEY will care about that, THEY will find a way to protect us, WE better go watching Faux...

Rising nuke alarm because of the stupid war-mongering, megalomania and disrespect for the Earth of the American Powerful? Just pay more taxes to pay the Pentagon – THEY will buy more weapons and weapons will protect us...

Rising poverty, explosion of population and wars? Just pay more taxes to pay the Pentagon...

BUT NEVER, EVER TALK ABOUT THAT!

Don’t bother us with the truth – no one wants to hear that.

That’s the lesson of the dying blogs – and the surviving ones. The survivors don’t care about the future, they sell, what people want: superficial nothing without any meaning even for their own life, but a so wonderful distraction from daily life...

Panes et circenses..

and Justitia got a blinder...

don’t care about the future, America, don’t care about the future, World. Just play and eat and kill and enjoy your life...

at least, as long as you can.

That’s how animals live...

but intelligence is the conquest of the future: To see the chances and the risks, to understand the possibilities and dangers, to accept that reality trumps everything and has to be respected to be helpful.

Sleep well, you "WhatMeWorry?"-species...
