...Alien Invasion Never Looked So Good...

There's alway been idle talk about "them." Them. They. The "Man".

Just who ~are~ "they"? Who or what is "them"? Who's the Man?

Risking the sneering of the "bought in" around you and wondering if the concept even begins to hold water... the disconcerted reader can begin to suspect that the aforementioned concept of "the man" holds an ocean of water. See, this is merely a function of which side of the bullhorn you find yourself.

So no, "They" are not "aliens from space," if that's what you thought I was on about today. Uh uh. Today I speak of the "they" that is "us"... ...I'd only be hoping for aliens from space.

Yes, *They* exist as sure as an "intelligent designer" puts spots on little apples and buries real news behind a tabloid dross of Runaway Brides, Paris Hiltons and Michael Jacksons... Conservatively? Three of these persons in a hundred (more of your fellow citizens, reader, under duress!) will bleed you out, dispassionately, for the laces on your shoes... that's right.

This is the "them" of which I speak.

Truth.

More truth? Less than one of these aforementioned three will be a woman. Much, much less than a fraction of that will be a person of color.

Truth.

Ideal Society is and always has been a way to protect the other 97 Human Beings from being abused too egregiously with regard to the self-serving activities of that terrible, even if necessary, 3%...

Briefly in digression, *necessary* because we need an ongoing inoculation from them or we get weak... ...and it is the rare occasion —because of our prosecuted complacencies, contraryness, and inconsistencies— that their way is the *survival* way. A ballast cutting forward escape from disaster... what happens when the asteroid hits, perhaps. Sorry if you're on the ballast, but "Survival" at any cost. Remember when our darling Tom Cruise had to kill Tim Robbins in "War Of The Worlds"? There's heat where the rubber meets the road...

Lately, that society accelerates AWAY from its responsibility to at least minimally protect its citizenry from the aforementioned, even to the point of recently letting Americans rot in the sun... ...to be eaten by rats, abandoned pets, and alligators for a week as a result of Hurricane Katrina...?

...We're not getting our money's worth... You think?

Did you ever believe that this would be America, reader? I'm 60, remember. I'd endured Viet Nam & Watergate and foolishly thought we'd been made more immune to Graft, Conspiracy, Corruption, authoritarianism, and irrational war. I was wrong. I never would have predicted this. ...How bad we would let it get...

It's bad...

I'm a retired soldier and a certified school teacher who has ever only tried to be an asset to my group of fellow humans, reader. I'm no radical even as I have a mind of my own and prefer to think out of the box like any good American...

...What I thought a good American was at any rate...

I've a wife and family and quality friends... they deserve a better society than what is presently (and illegitimately) being served in a current administration's crony-istic insider's prosecution of creeping theocracy and blooming fascism... ...a criminal society prosecuted in a predatory and insensate culture... ...by which innocence and decency can eventually prove fatal?

What hides in there? We shall see, I suspect.

Who are "they." Who are these persons, fellow human beings who disrespect us so, steal our savings, corrupt our faith, lie in our face, murder our children, infect us with disease, direct us to pollute our food and air... ...destroy our planet?

Sadly, I'd have to say us, ultimately... every individual who buys in, supports, and facilitates the status quo... but we're just piccolo players in the vast orchestra, reader! Who's conducting this mess? That's the issue! The short answer?

Them...

Well, forgetting for a moment that the insidious "THEY" are handily expressed in the persons around you... ...those who DARE to sneer at you from their dodgy ramparts of three parts jingo-istics, two parts reflexive ignorance and one part canted citation...? Not these so much... ...these are more to be pitied...

Who are... ..."they"?

Well...

"They" are... ...the privileged arbitrary, the stealthy unelected, and far too many of the fraudulently elected.

"They," are those who have, and having had, would keep on having... despite an aggregate detriment to the common good of those who "have not."

"They," are in possession of information that would credit or be to the advantage of anyone who knew... ...specifically...outlining why most know not.

"They" are the secret keepers.

"They" are the jealous manipulators of the hijacked mainstream.

"They" are the ardent covetous who encourage bland employees while they discourage ones who might think more critically.

"They" are the ones with hidden agendas, duplicitous plans, and secret programs.

"They" are the -few- willing to profit at the expense of the -many-.

"They" are above the law, outside reasonable ethics, practice a sociopathic amorality, and hold the many enthralled... but beneath their privileged contempt...

...Not to put too fine a point on it, eh reader?

Folks -- As I wrote before, don't credit or enable that which disrespects you; don't reward or compensate that which fails to satisfy you. Withhold your vote, your sympathy, and your dollars. Deny it your essence, your support, and your consideration. Refuse it your concern, your regard, your facilitation.

Know these by the fruit they have produced:

... A destroyed economy ... a shrinking middle class ... a degraded health care system ... a diseased environment ... a destroyed military force ... a degraded Bill of Rights ... a degraded quality of life ... Fear and loathing ... Increased Crime ... Pederasty ... Incompetent Cronyism ... laughable ballots ... the rape of our republic ... death ... torture ... unrestricted sociopathy ... tyranny ... a complete disruption of the rule of law ... the list could go on and on as you know it must...

Know them by their fruit... distruction and degradation... ...and such is the fruit?

Believe me, we don't really want a fraction of what they're trying to sell us, not really. We are enthralled with EVIL presently, reader... faithless, covetous, gluttonous, jealous, murderous... ...gibbering and capering evil, kind Sir and good Madam.

Indeed -- hold "them" beneath your contempt, concern, and consideration as you would any soul killer. The soul you save will be your own.

...Alien Invasion from beyond the stars never looked so good... you know...?
