I can hear old Ben from his grave: “DO IT !! Just fucking DO IT already !!!”

We’re overdue, and there’s always a penalty for that.

I read a discussion of anarchy as a mode of government this morning:
https://www.blacklistednews.com/article/84663/is-anarchy-the.html

Ben Bartee makes an argument that it won’t work due to the ‘paths among us. The thing is, we haven’t found a governmental system that is proof against eventual takeover by these people. Power is the only thing they pursue while the rest of us have lives to live and people to love. For this reason they will always gravitate to the power nodes in a society.’

I suppose we should just accept the situation as it is and be prepared for a societal reset every 200 to 300 years to clear the dross.

yes. accept. act accordingly. which narrows down quick. makes it simple. even if not easy.

but … no matter the cycle/schedule, the historical results of ‘revolution’ is shite. so it’s just another ‘anti-depressant’ med from the same headfook docs.
