One spoiled reactionary bunch
How can we realistically get people in Amerika who are engrossed by individual pursuits and whose priorities are dominated and determined by the values of capitalism (e.g., material and financial acquisition, private motivated endeavors, etc.) to truly care for human beings in other parts of the world on a sustained and meaningful basis when in fact we can’t even get most to give a damn for their so-called fellow citizens or oppressed nationalities right here in the “land of milk and honey and peaches and cream?”
I mean, let’s be real right up the block, around the corner or across the Manhattan bridge, there is no genuine concern as the “Love Thy Neighbor” command has absolutely no lasting potency over the hearts and minds of the multitude in this cruel nation. We know it’s a “dog eat dog” mentality out there and the “survival of the fittest” complex is the prevailing cornerstone of Capitalism.
The United Snakes is a cannibalized beast! Fundamentally, the problem is world-view. By world-view I don’t merely mean how one views life, but I also mean the culture that cultivates and rationalizes this world-view. Obviously, as a culture capitalism is all around us and touches every aspect of our lives (i.e., financially, medically, educationally, psychologically, morally, recreationally, sexually, etc.).
Thus, it is really a wonder that the citizens and oppressed nationalities of the Amerikan Empire are a spoiled and reactionary bunch? Opportunism and free-loading are the true favorite Amerikan past times and not the NBA or NFL - well, I better add deep denial to this list of obsessions. And yes, this “equally” applies to the New Afrikan colonized nation in which I struggle to help realize its due right to liberation and state power.
“We” are a truly chicken shit culture that prides itself on fuckin’ over people and being criminally indifferent toward those who are bombed, raped, robbed, and murdered by ruling class genocidal pirates. Yes, the masses too want to share in the booty, that’s precisely why the “booty call” is so popular in the mass psyche. Let us in on the kill or stolen loot and we’ll shut the hell up with all of this “keep hope alive” crap.
From the ghetto-hell Thug, the papered ass paid and sold “working class”, etc. Amerika is a self-indulged - PIMP! “That bitch betta have my money” is its clarion. Alienation is the quintessential hallmark of capitalism as it is a system rooted in private property and irrational estrangement from mother nature as she is perceived and treated as nothin’ more than an entity to be dominated and exploited just as the human woman. Most everybody is driven to get their “piece of the pie” or some “blood diamond bling” and couldn’t give a fuck about what suffers to make such possible.
Now that’s being a realist and true revolutionary in commitment and dialectical analysis and anything less is game by those who are prisoners of the pimp complex, period! This shit ain’t hard to tell as reality speaks her truth by those bold enough in their politics and conscience to listen.
The sanctioned methods (virtues) of being a Rockerfella cutthroat, a Ford backstabber, Dole shrewdly manipulative and Al Capone brutally competitive are the foundational principles of capitalism (Amerika) as folks like Suge Knight, Russell Simmons, Bill Gates, Don King, et al. have learned to apply most effectively by observing the Wall Street sharks in their frenzied “I gotta get mines, you gotta get yours” ideology of “me, myself, and I.” Until this shit really appalls you or makes one sick at the damn stomach, nothing will move the masses to struggle for a more just world as it for now is - just about us.
Myself, I’m counting on an economic melt-down and wars of international liberation with the aim of building localized strategic communalist-oriented zones of undyin’ revolution on a fraternal basis.
The game - game my ass this be some real death-blood human misery shit that is serious - of capitalism is raw and murderous and most in this nation know and accept this rule as an inevitable reality as to their minds the greed impulse is simply too formidable a human quality to ever check and this is exactly one of the main reasons most believe in apathy, the ruling classes propaganda (i.e. feed on it like candy) as to communism supposedly being a naive and utopian idea.
How do we make the communal idea - imperative - attractive or appealing on a mass level in the face of say a Jay-Z, 50cent, Queen Latifa, Lil-Kim, Magic Johnson, Oprah, Coby Bryant, et al. bubbling in out-of-control wealth or the rewards of capitalism? Who wants to genuinely forfeit their dream or aspiration of one day possibly being just like Mike? The images of abundance and happiness in wild extravagance, though most shall never be in a position to experience such decadent and truly spiritually void life, has inordinate power over their minds and hearts of most people in the “land of the free.”
The illusion is so powerful that people don’t even bother to consider or even see the blatant contradiction in the saying “land of the free” when in fact one must pay for everything in this society - “from tha craddle to tha grave!” One can’t even escape capitalism’s parasitic reach in the fuckin’ coffin…pathetic and sadistic are the values of Capitalist man and woman indeed.
A callous vampire and leech is what Amerika and imperialist countries like her are where “though shalt not worship idols” is nothin’ more than a commercial brand for or in the name of profit.
