You have fleshed out what I had inferred along the way, and it rings true. I see no single point of potential convergence to identify and facilitate countermeasures. Chaos has its place, but it usually fails to show up in the right place at the right time. At present, we are going for sabotage every place we can find to chuck a sabot --- hardly efficient. .

This manifestation of inhumane cruelty and lust for absolute power over earth and others is the latest viral recurrence of the diseased worldview created by the men of the Christian Puritan Reformation. The sociologist Max Weber later illustrated how it is also the philosophical root of all forms of colonialising Capitalism. It is a system structured by and for perpetual conflict and the narrowing of symbolic and cultural languages until there is only The One. Once the singularity is achieved violent schisms will erupt amongst the triumphant ‘pure’ until so much blood is shed exhaustion sets in and an impermanent equilibrium is reached for a period of time. As happened in the West post World War Two. As this is a way of thinking the imbalance is presently in all of our modern world’s political and judicial canons so that it is simply reinforced with each attempt at political reform. The historical period of European Revolutions around 1848 is the closest template we have as to how the ordinary and powerless amongst us survive these violent eras. Mostly by sheer luck and others altruism.

Thanks for this barnstormer of an essay. The US is not alone in suffering under vicious greedy tyrants in all their many guises.

It sheds light on the dark deeds and vicious criminality of our present age.

And there it is, as tears roll my mind finds reason and purpose to what was meaningless upheaval. The dots connect and the danger equal to what I knew must be lurking just below. Catastrophe, all encompassing devastation. It’s alive and the deadline is upon us.
