“As the Empire approaches real collapse, Machiavellian myths about “freedom and democracy” have vanished. It is clear to all that there is no free press. Free speech is demonstrably suppressed. Elections are obviously rigged for brain-dead puppets. The shared illusion is over.” (-Primo Radical)
““We are a society awash in skillfully manufactured lies. Solitude that makes thought possible—a removal from the electronic cacophony that besieges us—is harder and harder to find. We have severed ourselves from a print-based culture.
We are unable to grapple with the nuances and complexity of ideas. We have traded ideas for fabricated clichés. We speak in the hollow language we are given by our corporate masters. Reality, presented to us as image, is unexamined and therefore false. We are culturally illiterate. And because of our cultural illiteracy we are easily manipulated and controlled.” (— Chris Hedges)
““Culture is a perversion. It fetishizes objects, creates consumer mania, preaches endless forms of false happiness, false understanding in the form of squirrelly religions and silly cults. It invites people to dehumanize themselves by behaving like machines.” (~ Terence McKenna)
“Remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted.“ (—Sylvia Plath)
“As people celebrate Trump being indicted, remember that Bush still hasn’t even been charged for lying our country into a war that killed about a million people, displaced millions more, running an illegal torture program and getting thousands of our own troops killed and maimed” (-Black In The Empire)
“To gain your own voice, forget about having it heard. Become a saint of your own province and your own consciousness. (—Allen Ginsberg)
“Liberals are showing their ass once again. We are not going to mobilize to advance your agenda. We have a right to build independent organization with our own agenda based on our interests not the interests of racist, neoliberal democrats or proto-fascist republicans. For some of us, both capitalist parties are the enemies of the working class & ordinary people in the U.S. & certainly for the oppressed of the world. So we don’t do the lesser of two-evil thing as though choosing between two evils is democratic!” (-Ajamu Baraka)
“Being drunk is a good disguise. I drink so I can talk to assholes. This includes me.” (~ Jim Morrison)
“You see, I am a poet, and not quite right in the head, darling. It’s only that.” (― Edna St. Vincent Millay)
“Only a soul full of despair can ever attain serenity and, to be in despair, you must have loved a good deal and still love the world.” (― Blaise Cendrars)
