I sometimes wonder ‘What the fuck? How is this possible!?!’
Right now is how the hell anyone survived in Africa where all those kids are starving and getting eaten by flies? When was it that suddenly an indiginous people could start starving to death. These are intelegent human beings right? Like any other creature on this planet we are ingrained with the intinct to be able to go seek nuritment to keep our bodies running and whatnot. But then, like a fiery comet peircing the heavens these people die from being denied this basic fundimental feature of our human existance?
Here are a few theorys:
Modern man realized that these people had rare resources that it wanted then began obliterating their entire race in order to get what it wanted.
Modern lifestyles were suddenly the only acceptable form of perpetuating life. So, in order to enact this on the entire planet someone had to go fuck some shit up where people were still living freely without laws or whatever. Therefore destroying all alternatives to a system that does not rely on businesses to guide them through existance.
So lets say that people wanted to live without laws or social boundries or what have you. Instead they wanted to go survive in the wilderness in the harshest of climates. This is on a massive scale. Like at least 50,000 or so people up and decide to do this. What is the example of what would happen to their way of life? Africa? Would they all starve to death? Shit, africans have survived for thousands of years now suddenly they can’t even eat? This way of life doesn’t seem so appealing any more now does it.
How the hell does someone convice a bunch of people to comit genocide? I suppose that you would need a very convincing argument right? Now, clearly I am not a schollar. Nor will I really care about what is happening in our world today in a week. But there is one thing that never leaves my mind. The power to broadcast a single voice over thousands of miles is the most powerful weapon known to man. Yeah, I don’t know if I want to get into my anti TV tangent but I am talking about any kind of media.
Totally Random Thought:
Something about somali priates that makes me smile. Any group of people that risk their lives to unhinge a system that put their people in this kind of spot on the planet helps me beleive that we are not totally fucked. Sure, they got away with breaking international law then got themselves killed in the proccess. That sucks a whole bunch right. But the fact that spirit is alive somewhere on this planet gives me hope that at some point, everyone will realize how stupid of a system we live in.
If someone asked me if I would give up money for a life where the cumulitive resources of the world were available to everyone and the technology to bring these resources to everyone was just a single generation away, I would voulenteer on the spot. That and I would want to have a kid who could live in that world. As it stands now, I will never have children. Not as long some african kid starves to death while some greedy white guy tries to industrialize his ass.
