INTRODUCTION
Less than a generation from now, no one will be talking about class warfare or the struggle. We’ll be reeling from a mass extermination and talking about extinction. Our race will be realizing what the struggle is..from the point of view of a dying planet’s last to die. It’s more than a grim irony that most of those who survive will be those who had sped up the planet’s demise before speeding up our own.
But this isn’t some doomsday prophecy. Prophecy is only a sign nailed to a tree at a fork in the road anyway.
Hopefully some of you out there are going to hear this and, either you’ve already put these pieces together and this helps you feel less alone with your conclusion..or you’ve never really tried to put the pieces together and this gives you something new to think about.
We’re all just living in the present, nothing more. I honestly believe that most of the mistakes that GOOD HEARTED people make are based on bad information, miscommunication, moods or misunderstandings. At the end of this long spiel, there’s a solution. Embrace it.
THEIR NEED
Look, I’m going to lay out a whole bunch of pieces that can all be looked up and found on so-called “reputable” sources. Some of this will be half Daf rant style, because I’m a sucker for a stage..but for those of you who “don’t got time for that shit”, I’ll to get straight to the point:
The rich have a last ditch solution for stopping the death of the planet or at least slowing it’s demise long enough to get to Mars: They plan on killing off the poor and unneeded members of the working class and our children. Killing off 90% of us should do the trick. Just killing off 70% of us would have a significant effect and still leave a fairly manageable populace to subdue. Less pollution. Less energy use. Less crime due to less population density. But let’s look at those pieces now..shall we?
First, as this section’s name suggests, let’s take a look at their NEED to kill us off:
For the longest time, I’d assumed they were going for a worldwide plantation, but that didn’t make sense for a few of reasons:
1. Few of the major polluters are doing much to solve the problem. Coca Cola itself kept ignoring its own recycling initiatives, including only around 7% recycled plastic in its bottles. According to a study it sponsored, Coca Cola itself knew that changing from glass, to plastic and aluminum, would devastate the environment, but save them billions in shipping weight and bottle washing. (See also: Coca-Cola's plastic secrets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvYZ3sbTaQ0 to get a good look at this scumbaggery.) Add Bayer to that list and Monsanto before them. All of the major petroleum refiners/distributers too, are in a very profitable denial about the pollution their industries are creating. Research into leaving the planet to “save the human genome” costs money. So does convincing the entire planet to take their lethal injection on time. Owning the global media and ruling their governments is not cheap.
2. The drive by the wealthy to automate, including AI and self driving vehicles. They kept saying, “there aren’t enough workers. There aren’t enough drivers.” But that barely makes sense. Drivers are over-regulated and underpaid. The laws of supply and demand should equate to a rise in wages for drivers..and they have...a bit. Normally, the wealthy would just set up some driving programs at their "trade schools" advertise for 5 years and voila, the marketed is glutted with drivers! But see, eventually, they want to cut the drivers out of the economy altogether..and they plan on using the drivers labor to fund it. Not only that, they’re hiring the drivers’ kids fresh out of college to invent the self-driving technologies; in effect putting their parents out of work. If the rich were trying to make us all into slaves..why build automated slaves to replace us? And once we’re all-but-useless..what would they do with us? Especially if we couldn’t solve the problems they created..ie. destroying the planet? (Think of a spoiled brat who got themselves into a fix: “I love you Daddy” when they think Daddy is going to be able to fix their situation with the judge, and “I hate you father, I hope you die”, when the judge refuses to play ball and the spoiled brat is stuck with their consequences. If we don't solve their mess, we deserve to die is an elitist's mentality.)
3. Which brings me to the third reason that the plantation narrative didn’t fit: Since when have the rich ever given a crap about anything or anybody they were done using? If they are automating us out of usefulness, they have no intention of paying to support us or even of allowing us to support ourselves. They have already shown their intention to destroy or swallow small business, replace workers and dominate every sector of every industry..there is no room for us to “compete” against these monsters once we’re on their radars..and they have no intention of paying for welfare, universal incomes or any of that other nonsense at the end of the day. Oh sure, in countries where people are watching their government carefully, the powers are playing along with the “human agenda.” That’s to ensure everyone in those countries lines up for their “final shot” at serving their awesome country come the next manufactured pandemic.
Perhaps we’ll all just get to roam the countryside frolicking, camping and making the rich nervous? Don’t hold your breath. (Unless they decide to gas us instead.)
THEIR SOLUTION
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to answer the question posed by those points, does it?
When people become cold-blooded, calculating, all powerful social entities with no accountability..what IS the ultimate pollution solution that is feasible, effective and gets rid of any pesky witnesses to these crimes against the planet and its inhabitants?
What is the solution which will:
Get rid of the need for so many cars? Get rid of the need to produce so much food? Get rid of the need to use so much packaging? Get rid of the need to dispose of so much waste(after the bodies are gone)? Get rid of nagging people who want promises kept? And ALSO, of prying people who want to know what happened to their money? To their country? To the world?
What solution could practically erase the significant rage which the world has built up toward the elite..could stop the revolution before it starts?
And on top of all of that..what solution is almost instantaneous..? Like liposuction? Like a titanium credit card? Like taking a private jet to Paris for lunch? Like getting someone else to clean your room...again?
We all know what that solution is. It involves most of us dying. And they won’t send the cops in..they don’t want us to hear the warning shot until it’s already in us and killing us.
Besides, some cops and military will certainly turn on the establishment after hearing of their relatives' deaths...or maybe they’ll buy the story that it was all an unfortunate tragedy. You never know.
It all sounds crazy..except we ARE automating jobs away. We ARE trying desperately to get to Mars. We are treating people like garbage that used to have jobs and work them faithfully. We did watch the rich take our pensions and give us 401Ks which they also took. They took our homes too..the homes we had worked for. They have no shame.
And what about the strong push to force people to get shots?
You used to be able to say no based on the fact that your body is your property and is entitled to protection under the Consitution. In no other legal context that I can think of is falling victim to an act of God considered an avoidable malicious act.
Yet, in all but 18 states it is illegal to refuse your kid’s shots based on philosophical objections. (Such as believing that the rich are going to exterminate us all for instance. ) And if you do,object to getting injected, it is illegal for you to protect yourself..except by choosing another religion or getting a doctor to lie for you.
There’s an interesting statistic. Did you know that more rich people refuse to have their kids immunized than any other economic strata? I wonder why that is? Could it be because they’ve snuck down to the plant and shit in a few vats of milk chocolate after a drunken Halloween party up in the penthouse suite back at Hershey’s corporate? Could it be because they know what money does and what control and power want and what danger looks like? Couldn’t tell you. I’m no expert on that stuff. I’m just a humble musician with a fear of needles.
OUR SOLUTION
So what can we do to stop this mass murder? And how badly is survival going to disrupt our lives?
I guess it depends. Do we want the planet to survive? Or do we just want to keep the rich from getting away with this?
To stop the planet from dying, we’ll have to stop consuming so much, get off of the plastic and reorder the way we think about why we’re all on this planet in the first place. (Or we could just let the richies kill us and see how that goes.)
Stopping the richies should be easier..even if it doesn’t save the planet.
The first step is getting over our denial. They say when someone dies, or finds out they’re going to die, denial is the first stage they experience. It’s no different here. We all have our beliefs..some of them strongly held beliefs that we’ve come to for good reasons. Beliefs are interesting though, because once they set up shop, they don’t like being displaced. Especially if any replacement beliefs coming along behind them aren’t the sort we’re comfortable with. That’s where denial comes in handy.
This is no time for that sort of handy. Shake it off. It’s real, it’s coming..time to deal with it.
Secondly, we need to stop taking richie money. We need to stop serving their needs, maintaining their property, solving their problems, engineering their solutions. We need to support our own neighborhoods and small businesses with our skills. We need to stop running off to the city to share our great engineering skills and our great leadership skills, or our great ideas and start bringing those qualities back to OUR communities again. Then we need to stop waiting for each other to fail and start helping each other succeed. Stop trying to be the boss and figure out how to be a good team mate.
As less of us serve rich communities, supply and demand will raise contractor and service wages in the rich neighborhoods. The better we ignore the rich, the more those wages will rise...and the more their neighborhoods will begin to fall into decline. Soon, they’ll want to move into OUR neighborhoods, the better maintained, healthier, more economically prosperous neighborhoods with happier people living in them.
We need to take the economic opportunity to take their power from them. The law is what we say we’ll put up with. We need to stop putting up with it. We need to start putting the law in check by removing our approval, resisting its force..like we did when they were foreclosing on good people’s homes.
The law has become another source of richie income and control over society. We need to cut that flow of money and power OFF.
We need to raise ourselves above admiring and fawning over the rich and begin the long overdue act of shaming them..not just with words and protests, but refusal to accept their orders at any cost. Refusing to serve them at any price. They want to be the strong winners? Let’s see how that works for them without us.
We need to take the land back. We need to barter more. Build more. Do it ourselves more. Cut the corporations off at the knees by stifling their profits. Let’s stop building their rockets, taking their blue pills, cleaning up their messes. Let’s leave them to their own devices and take care of our own neighbors from now on.
We never needed them half as much as they need us. That won’t last forever if they have their way.
We can do this.

We did watch the rich take our pensions and give us 401Ks which they also took. They took our homes too..the homes we had worked for. They have no shame.
And they think we’re such suckers. Tesla wants you to believe he’s all about saving the planet with electric cars, but how else would you build civilization on Mars except with solar power and electric power? There are no discovered fossil fuel deposits yet. They’re certainly not going to ship gasoline or petroleum to Mars. Nope, we’ve been developing the power technologies the rich will need on Mars if this planet can’t be saved from the trap they led us into out of greedy, selfish, denial.
The head of Coca Cola wants another 15 years for us to see how well they’ve done reducing plastic waste. They think instituting new plans or hiring new people means they get endless resets. Almost like a corporate version of Billy Corgan. And the crazy thing is, there was nothing wrong with their glass recycling programs..glass eventually turns back into sand.
And look at ol’ Bill Gates..jetsetting around the globe with Melinda, trying to convince everyone to drink the lethal injection koolaid..right as Zuck has banned all talk about not taking your shots.
Speaking of which..
What about the strong push to legally force people to get shots?
We used to be able to say “no” based on the fact that our bodies belong to us and are entitled to protection under the Consitution. In no other legal context that I can think of is falling victim to an act of God considered an avoidable malicious act except when you get sick without having a shot for the illness.
Yet, in all but 18 states it is illegal to refuse your kid’s shots based on philosophical objections. (You know, like believing that the rich are going to exterminate us all with shots for instance. ) And if you do object to getting injected, it is illegal for you to protect yourself..except by choosing another religion or getting a doctor to lie for you.
