Commoners


The common era-
What is the common era? A phrase which many have used to describe that once would have been A.D.
CE: Common Era. You live in it.
What is cledonism? Divination by means of listening to the random ravings of the insane.
We listen to cledonists when the mad are the only ones left to tell the truth. Our prophets are madmen when the collective decides that the truth is anathema to its further entertainment, which is the foremost living purpose of every person in this dystopian world.
                That’s right. The world is the science fiction dystopia you read about in all of your cyber-punk books. The villains are everywhere and Anonymous and anyone under arrest at a political protest are its heroes. If one craves simplification, there it is. The New World Order isn’t coming. It is here. We can’t stop a police state from arising on American shores- that would take a time machine. If one wants to become totally powerless- believe the Illuminati and Bohemian Grove control the earth and that you can do nothing to stop their gigantic web of control. This is true, except it is also, too easy. Were it so  easy. Instead your oppression is at hand- it is the police officer in his Black Shirt uniform. Your next tax bill. Your next ticket under an unnecessary law. Your friend in jail. Those drug laws. Oppression. It’s a collective problem now. It isn’t just something you have to worry about if you are born a particular color. It started a long time ago. It isn’t just the fault of the asshole we last elected, who happens to be ‘black’.
The Common Era. It is the reason that grown men would laugh at a movie where a male talked about ‘fake-chowing’ a woman- as if any man that didn’t like the taste of a woman wasn’t outright gay in the first place. No, it is not that it is bad to be so; it’s that it is bad for someone to be in denial(ehem Rick Perry)
Americans are schizophrenic in the extreme. We have many philosophies at many different times.  So it goes says Vonnegut.
We have ‘killed our mother’, in this Common Era.
Avatar was just the Trail of Tears in space; except for that Happy Little Big Horn battle at the end. The real trail of tears ended in the eradication of an entire continent of people-began by Columbus.
What is the Common Era? It is the piles of shit-sandwiches being fed into your face so Hollywood stars can feed their ego-cocaine addictions. The real entertainment industry is the plethora of hack writers heaving this at the world and seeing how much of it we will eat.
