How fake the world has become due to corporate domination. Sitting in a parking lot at a shopping plaza within sight of a housing development, I gestured around us and said, Show me one real building or vehicle. It’s all for show. Appearances are all that count. False fronts and façades. We live in a movie set world now. Absolutely nothing is real, not even the people anymore as sociopaths and other people shapes take over. Everything’s a cheat, a lie, or a scam. Corporations have made sure of this. They have hollowed out our lives and left nothing but empty shells pretending to live.
A corporate HQ troubleshooter boss showed up at BAE recently and announced, I’m here to remove all the feelings from our business. This is mentally ill, but it is corporate policy now. They reward sociopathic behavior, inculcate sociopathy, and actively, knowingly seek to hire sociopaths now. How sick is that?
Word came the other day that the permafrost on the Siberian tundra is now melting, releasing untold billions of tons of methane and carbon dioxide. Runaway greenhouse effect is almost guaranteed. We knew it was inevitable when we saw the glaciers going away. We did it to ourselves by allowing sociopathic criminals using money to buy our society for corporations. The last fiscal year saw us pollute more than the past two decades combined, thanks to the legacy of W’s destruction of the regulations and hollowing of the Environmental Protection Agency. In short, right wing scum. Greed, hate, and fear rule our lives now.
And there is no turning back. If we eliminated mankind today, Earth would still continue the warming unto runaway greenhouse effect. We are another Venus, and could have temperatures upwards of 900° Celsius. That could happen in as little as 20 years, although a more realistic estimate is within a century.
We’ve been murdered by corporations and, worse, rendered an extinct species by having allowed corporations to dominate and sociopathy to become the rule.
I now see it literally does not matter what the bloated, corrupt system does. Nor what any of us do. We’re terminal, and all we want is comfort now. What little comfort we can scrounge from the toxic crumbs and polluted dregs left to us by the fracking rich 1% Sociopathic Criminals Using Money. And even they cannot survive a runaway greenhouse effect, so even they are done. The Millennialists have their global destruction of mankind and there is no imaginary sky father coming to lift the chosen few up into the grandstands so they can watch the torture festival in sadistic glee.
My new nickname is A Ray of Sunshine. I shine light on things no one wants to see.
Sorry you had to see this. Existential angst is best handled in the dark.
