People all over the world have experienced a feeling of unease and discomfort for many years now, especially the world's poor. Economic and mental slavery has been with us for centuries, however through the strife many of us have glimpsed the possibility of alternative ways. Many of us have questioned why we are in bondage to invisible lords, financial institutions and an unreasoning wall of injustice.
Militarism has been used to galvanise the masses and make them into human shields for the elite, people of all nations have been encouraged to point accusing fingers to their fellow citizens to account for any misfortune or simpl to hate those that are different. I am not a Marxist but I agree, that divided, we fall. Who is to blame for this madness and worlsd suffering? THe West has advanced over the last 500 years and yes, the world is at the brink of destruction, whether this would have happened if the East were dominant we will never know. But what we know is that we are all in the shit now and WE must change it. There is no time and reason for accusing fingers at ground level.There is never an excuse for letting any injustice, abuse, exploitation or violence pass unchallenged. It is time to change this glaobal zoo, time to evolve into a civilised society, to make technology efficiently serve the masses with food, energy, time by freeing us from labour bondage, and to reclaim our heritage as potentially intelligent and creative ingenious beings. Time to unite and act NOW before the elite take everyones sanity and lives away!!!
