One Toe Over the Line
Something needs to change (and it’s not just me).
Therapists, psychologists, counsellors, friends — whomsoever you choose to vent your spleen to in order to prevent from internally combusting — will all tell you that it’s you who needs to “adjust.”
Hey, come on! Capitalism isn’t really that bad anyway they say.
At least it’s not communism, they say.
Work with it, they say.
GET A JOB, they say.
There’s no Gulags……(yet), they say. No concentration camps.
Subject yourself, subjugate yourself, submit. It’ll be better in the long run if you do.
Rebels, outlaws and revolutionaries get punished, and punished severely.
Do you really want to end up like Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, or that nameless, faceless lone wolf who stood up against the tanks rolling in to Tiananmen Square?
Do you really want to be the one to call the Nazis delusional, the British arrogant colonists, the Israelis genocidal and the 1% parasites?
Do you really want to put your life, family and career on the line just to make a point?
