| After reading the news today (oh boy, again!), I couldn't resist the urge to add this extra page, by way of nailing down my previous sentiments. It seems our good friends and protectors King George the Second, Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleeza Rice, Dick Cheney, Tom Ridge, and all the other folks of the New Order at Homeland Security, Inc., have anticipated ALL our needs for the next thousand years or so. In our best interests -- of course! -- and in the name of fighting the War on Crime, the War on Drugs, the War on Terrorists, the War on Evildoers, the War on Men, ad infinitum -- they have clandestinely developed an "Urban Surveillance System" able to track, record and analyze the movements of . . . well, of just about anybody and everybody on the planet. The A.P. wire release through Yahoo quoted one John Pike, a Global Security.org defense analyst, thus: "Government would have a reasonably good idea of where everyone is most of the time." Ah yes. How very comforting. I feel more "homeland secure" already. Don't you? But, but . . . our Rulers rush to assure us that this "global" spy technology, beyond anything Orwell could imagine, will only be used in combat zones and situations. Against furreners, ya see. Them nasty Evildoers that seem to have cropped up just about everywhere these past forty years. Quoting A.P. again: "Police, scientists and privacy experts say the unclassified technology could easily be adapted to spy on Americans." 'Course, as our intrepid expert AngryHarry assures us constantly, Total Information is a GOOD THING!! Why, the "free distribution" of complete information will undoubtedly ENSURE that those nasty bullies he calls the "more powerful" will be laid low, their innermost secrets revealed. Total Information will be a great boon and victory for the Little Man. The more, the better!" Now, let's review. Have Homeland Security, Total Information Awareness, and the (new and improved!) Global Surveillance System been the pet project of those horrid "Marxists" and dastardly "Liberals," about whom we are instructed to live in fear? Those "Big Gubbermint" Lefties?? Uh. Naw. These are the methods, and the madnesses, of our good buddies on the RIGHT WING. Why, the very same RIGHT WING that ole AngryHarry, Mike LaSalle, and the rest of the chowderhead "leaders" of the Men's Movement have been dicksucking daily. Their Jefe Supremo Junior George and the Pals at the Pentagon(e) thought this one up, and will most definitely execute it, if it's in their power! And IT IS, IT IS!! YAY!! Yah, GOOD CALL, boys. Glad you're on "our side" in this movement to "liberate masculinity." I must say, though, I've gotta question the Powers you've decided to back. They don't seem too interested in ANY kind of "liberation" to me. Quite the opposite, judging by the evidence mounting daily. Not convinced? No, of course not. Try this, then, also from the A.P./Yahoo release: [The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's] "other projects include developing software that scans databases of everyday transactions and personal records worldwide to predict terrorist attacks and creating a computerized diary that would record and analyze everything a person says, sees, hears, reads or touches." Still not enuf, my bamboozled brethren? Stubborn, eh? Okay, here's the clincher, from the same release: "Once DARPA demonstrates that it can be done, a number of companies would likely develop their own version in hope of getting contracts from local police, nuclear plant security, shopping centers, even people looking for deadbeat dads." These are the folks you're backing, eh boys? Well, as the saying goes, with friends like you . . . . Looks like ole Tricky Dick WAS a prophet, after all. He and his "associates" DID "take this country so far to the Right, you won't even recognize it." This is the "Land of Liberty??!" God help us all. Methinks the Men's Movement -- and it's supposed "advocates" -- needs to take a LONG, HARD look at itself, at its ideo-political stances, and at the persons and groups it supports. 'Cause I've got my own news bulletin for you: you're living in Dreamland, and by supporting your beloved "patriots" on the Right, you're helping to lead us all straight into Nightmareland. MATRIARCHAL Nightmareland. Have a nice, lengthy stare in the mirror, boys, and ask yourselves if 'praps your interests in notoriety, money, and power might be serving yourselves more than "The Movement." Hmmm? Let's try that, for a change, shall we, instead of killing the messenger? Have a nice day! Be seeing you around! |
