Imagine... no 'economy'.

Imagine if people shared,what they have,traded,and said fuck money,fuck the economy...and instead put each other as most important.

Imagine... I need help with a broken arm,A friend I know knows a doctor,I call said doctor,he needs plumbing help,I call my plumber friend to help the doctor,but plumber needs food I have chickens eggs ans tomatoes from my garden,I give some of my produce to the plumber,plumber helps doctor,doctor sets my arm.(NO money was needed).

Say,you need food,but you can build,you call up a person with a farm and help them as a farmhand awhile, fixing up a fence and when you are done you can feed yourself for a month and you have some home canned jelly too.

What if you needed a new pair of pants,you would call up an artist friend she likes to spin yarn,you offer to clean her house for enough yarn to make pants,then while you work she remembers the number of a lady who builds looms,you visit the loom lady,clean her house as she weaves your yarn into fabric,and you both end up talking about fabrics yarns patterns have a good time since you know how to sew you go home and sew yourself a nice pair of pants and made a new friend!.

Imagine you need sheets for your bed,a guy with an extra sheet set needs a pair of boots,you have a nearly new pair of boots that you don't use alot,but could fit him.You trade.


Imagine you have some dishes you don't need a few books,and a fake palm tree in a urn you take them to a "free store", which has the policy take something and leave something.You leave the stuff you don't need,but you find two items you need and one that would be nice to have,you take it and go home.(No money needed) No billionaire profits.

Imagine no economy,no profits,no one going without,no zero sum games,no imagining paper is anything but,paper.

why do we ignore our lonliness?

April 2, 2013 |
These days, when we pass a person on the street we usually don‘t say hello or even look them in the eye. In the city, we live in a world of strangers, the vast majority of whom we have very little to no personal relationship with whatsoever. Occasionally we may get into brief, interesting exchanges with the person behind the counter at the café or the grocery store, but these exchanges are predicated upon our purchase of something the shop is selling. This makes me wonder if such conversation is merely a byproduct of the capitalist machine in motion, a human byproduct of commerce whereby the exchange of cash sparks the expressive faculties while also providing an adequate social lubricant. While it is, of course, natural for human beings to talk and communicate with one another, unless we have a good excuse or reason to do so we seem to maintain our typical everyday stranger status with the entire general public surrounding us.

Let me make this SIMPLE

Reality is...

All men ARE potential rapists.

Why?

Because males have a penis that hardens to the point it can penetrate orifices, it's biological fact.. A penis can be used as a WEAPON. Any man that has a functioning penis potentally can decide in his own mind to use that penis as a weapon.Why because he CAN. Biologically any man can potentially be a rapist to anyone with an orifice that is penetrable.

If a person has been assaulted by a penis/weapon because a male decided to use it as a weapon they are scarred,for life and are very hyper vilagent to avoid another assault because rape traumatizes people.A symptom of trauma is hyper vilagence and it is a physical and psychological reaction to being traumatized..

If a man does not use his penis today as a weapon to invade another's orifice then today he's NOT a rapist..

Mind reading does not exist in real life. So any potential person possessing an orifice that can be penetrated by a penis/weapon is a potential rape victim.

Rape is always a CHOICE,a choice to use a penis as a weapon to destroy another person and soothe the ego through a power trip,because rape traumatizes and destroys a person..

So if you have a penis you are male,so all men by default biologically carry a weapon.


Rape is a CHOICE made in the mind of a penis owner to use that penis as a weapon and truth is no one can read minds.

Being unable to read another persons mind means we can never know exactly what they are thinking,or deciding.

So All men who have minds that cannot be read as accurately clearly and perfectly as their own mind by another person's mind, and a penis that can get hard enough to penetrate another's' orifices,could potentially be a rapist should he choose to be a rapist.

Rape because of biology is a choice that only Males can make.

And no one can read his mind to know if he is choosing to rape or not with 100% certainty.

I'm afraid of the world..

greedy corporations and arrogant leaders are bullies to most countries,I wish the american people would stop going along with the bullying corrupt and evil leaders and corporations,and let the CEO and politician face the consequences of their actions and decisions,personally.In other words the world hates us,and I hope these other countries are more with it than many americans are,and can separate the citizen from the monsters at the reigns of power,crime and profit in this country.

Yes in so many ways citizens are little Eichmann's,but at some point you have to get over it and stop going along, it has gotten so bad,so hard to organize others, in this fake atomized programmed engineered 'reality', that overlays an overwhelming tragic reality that is painful to look at we all co-created, so many have become stressed,mentally ill,sick, unable to live,unable to fight or don't know who the real enemies to their happiness are anymore ,overwhelmed,too obedient to authority,anxious,traumatized,too scared, unable to deal with the actual sad reality of what our lives have become because of the 1% that desire we live as we do.

Why so much misery,desolation,desperation,social awkwardness,isolation,abuse,escapism,addiction,silence and anxiety? Why do so many people in this country kill others or commit suicide? It's not because guns are all over the place,really.What is happening to the human heart,the soul the mind and body,the society we live within. WHY?

Maybe it's because the profit mongers secret keepers manipulators,social engineers,and all the participants ho make life so unreasonable who fail to ask what purpose their job serves,who benefits,who wants this study/program/tool/weapon and what for...?? Why this war, that war,why this economy type.(there are many other models for an economy without needing profit or accumulations of symbol-paper or credits to determine who gets what)..why do we tolerate this sadistic authoritarian modified token based economic society that has human beings living like an ant colony?T

Why tolerate the pollution making,the machines the 'ownership',the GMO's,the abuse,who does it benefit? Who does it hurt? and most of all why do we go along with this stupid painful deceptive travesty? Why do we not care enough for one another,why do we ignore and keep things compartmentalized,how long are we gonna play their games,by their rules,with our country, our lives our well being and the future,the animals and planet?

Some care a lot,some will never care, but somehow,love and trustworthiness is in such short supply.Why?What or whom made it like this? why do we tolrate intolerable people,intolerable lies ,intolerable machines,intolerable companies and social structures? And why do we keep going along with our own ruin and the planet's ruin.Is this short sighted imaginary zero-sum game(economies) and status/ pecking order bullshit so damn important? Really?
