The Horribly Disappointing Not Revolutionary Left

So the union movement is not exactly gearing up for an excess of passion right now. Pretty worrying, but that's the bureaucratic Left for you. The amendments to the Summary Offences Act will be rammed through in the State of Victoria and so far the office champs have pumped out a video that looks like it was made by a Centralized Union Neutering Team.

The union movement needs to fuck off it's own 1%, the union movement needs a revolution, the union movement has been decapitated by technocrats, it's a waste, a disaster, a showbag: looks good, but full of shit.

But let's not pretend the Worker has no part in this. I've spoken with unionists who shake their head at the materialistic focus of people well paid only because people like themselves fought the bosses. Now those people's lives seem to revolve around being able to buy shit, talk shit about that shit, all of this a replacement for giving a shit.

Let's face it, fucktard nationalism has replaced making yourself useful. It takes no initiative to sit on a stool and regurgitate Rupert Murdoch's baby food, it takes no effort to sit on that pedestal with your head up your arse, basking in the glory of living in the lucky country and with no idea who made all this possible. It wasn't the bosses, that's for sure.

The bosses pay people like the IPA to use megaphones like the ABC to spout drivel about the evils of government, but what they are trying to destroy is any idea of participating in your own nation's decision making. All of it is connected and the unions used to inform their members of these things, but at this stage of the game the members don't want to hear it and the dominant careerists at the top? They're clones of the dominant careerists in government, the military, healthcare, the NGO-industrial-complex, you name it, these technospazzes reflect each other beautifully, perfectly formed turds shat out by the 1%.

The 1% sit above all this like a child with a magnifying glass and when they focus on you, you hope this brush with unimaginable wealth is good for your stupid fucking career. You will doing anything they ask, anything they suggest, anything they seem to maybe just a little bit hinting at. They say "Jump", you say, "I'm buying a nice house."

You are convinced this career path is just because you have been stuffed full of the importance of a particular kind of family: the smallest possible breeding unit, the nuclear family, separated like terrorist cells, hiding at home, cluelessly focused on your impossibly magical children, unconcerned that you are damning them to an empty future. A future excreted by arseholes like you who refuse to see the truth in front of your face because you're taking another fucking photo of your lifestyle.

The police will be granted terrifying new powers in the State of Victoria because you're on a holiday from your own life.

I hope we discover I am unhinged and everything's actually fine.

    Because they are socialised and believe that there is no alternative
    to capitalism worth striving for. Given a choice between the USA,
    France and West Germany and the USSR, the PRC and the DDR, most on
    either side of the wall have made it clear that they will choose the
    former. Thus, it's very easy to see why Thatcher's TINA was accepted
    by most of the left (not the Marxist-Leninists who had their own
    peculiar brand of wage-slavery to sell) opposition to conservative
    solutions to the issues which are raised under the rule of Capital.

    I think the critique of the wage system which Marx began and which was
    largely abandoned by the left in the 20th century is the key to
    getting people to see that 'storming the barricades' is an option.

They Continue To Do So

My girlfriend woke me and I rushed into the other room and as I watched a plane fly into a building I thought, what's the story with morning television? How benighted are motherfuckers if they simply have the TV on, just on, just there spouting drivel into a private living space, a space where you are not required by law to listen to strangers dibbling shit or watch them smile like money is being fired into all their holes? People will cry their eyes out at whatever tragedy is slipped into them by experts. People will also avoid reflection on weighty matters. Hey people, the inside of your head will not give you AIDS if you touch it. (The TV was on because news radio was alerting the world that there was great footage to stroke to. Yes, we listen to news radio in the morning because we are superior beings. Kneel, dogs.) As the buildings collapsed I thought, I mean, are people that scared of having an original thought that they have to crowd out any possibility of a clue arriving

RIP Gough Whitlam

Gough Whitlam died today. The important difference between this event and his dismissal from the Prime Ministership in the Australian 1970's? There was no CIA involvement. I was a child in the 1970's. When I was old enough to ask, "What happened? How did that happen?" My elders told me they half expected at the time something like a civil war to break out. People were devastated, they were enraged, they were also electrified. The United States of America, to put it bluntly, includes Australia as a remote colony, an outpost. When Gough Whitlam threatened Pine Gap the CIA had to get involved. Pine Gap, located in remote Australia, is a key asset to United States air and space superiority. Many Australians are excited to be part of an Imperial power structure. Many powerful Australians are over the moon at the opportunity to be included in US games of global domination. Whether conspiracy, madness or just weakness, many Australians were quite happy for the US to take

Onlookers

I'm having a bit of trouble with social media because I keep wanting to tell people to die of cancer. This is because I want many, many Australians to die of cancer. Today. Painfully. While I watch. Well, I wouldn't be strictly watching because my eyes would be rolled back into my head as I experienced an hour-long orgasm as hate left my system in a crippling wave of ecstasy. The next AFP top cop says this wave of terror is like no other and he's right: the terrorists are all born Australian know nothings, the type who love to hate an outsider because it's the perfect crime. Look at me defending my family, I am a good person and it is merely coincidence that I get to indulge my worst urges. I want to come on their faces. I have urges too. And you're right, it's not sexual, it's about establishing dominance. I am so afraid of these people that I'm a mess of power fantasies. I get it. The idea is to hit the nation like a log until it's split int
