The measure of a slave – a few simple tests

This little exercise is similar to those little games that monthly magazines are known for; like test your fitness level by timing how fast you can eat a box of chocolates while watching TV! Get the picture? But I’m afraid these tests provide accurate results. For example, do you believe the government’s explanation of the 9/11 disaster? Yes! Well, I’m sorry to inform you that you’re not only a compliant slave but also a moron! The following furnishes irrefutable proof.
Spartacus
Recently captured former Bosnian Serb leader, Radovan Karadzic, is facing war crimes charges at the Hague; he is accused of complicity in the murder of 8000 civilians during the Bosnian war. Karadzic is currently incarcerated and will remain in detention throughout the entire proceedings.
Years prior to Karadzic’s arrest, an internationally respected British medical journal, ‘The Lancet,’ assessed that approximately 655,000 innocent civilians died as a direct result of the American led invasion of Iraq. This report is now dated, however, a more recent report from John Hopkins university in the U.S. places the civilian death toll closer to 750,000! At this stage some astute slaves would have pre-empted the test.
Eight thousand deaths pale against three-quarters of a million deaths, notwithstanding one innocent civilian death is one too many. It is now public knowledge that Bush took the nation to war based on lies and more lies after the initial lies, and more lies after that (torture). Yet Bush continues to occupy the highest office in the land. Assuming you are not in the ranks of the fully retarded, THE DOUBLE STANDARD IS OBVIOUS! But that is not the point of the test, YOU are!
How does that legal double standard sit with you? If you accept this outrage, which defies every civilised and moral code of conduct, you would be an extremely compliant and spineless slave; and there’s no escaping the fact! Forget excuses like it has nothing to do with me, etc – you will soon discover it has EVERYTHING to do with you!
Tolerating such a monumental hypocrisy and double standard comes at a very high price! How many civil liberties and democratic rights have YOU LOST since Bush came to office? Bush is now able to spy on YOU and other citizens, LEGALLY! Doesn’t affect you, ay? Nothing to do with you, ay? Sticking your head in the sand simply makes your arse an easier target! Tolerating or failing to act against your leaders in the face of screaming hypocrisy, double standards and criminal behaviour invites the same injustices on YOU.
Now consider the financial elites and bankers responsible for destroying the economy and our quality of life; consider the vast amounts of remuneration they receive AND CONTINUE TO RECEIVE! When we make mistakes we are forced to accept responsibility and pay for our mistakes, when bankers make mistakes they increase financial pressure on the public by increasing rates in order to recover THEIR losses! In other words WE PAY when THEY make mistakes – who said banking was a thieves paradise? But again, that’s not the point, the point is YOU TOLERATE HUGE INJUSTICES FROM ROGUES AND THIEVES without demanding reform.
Now consider futures and commodities markets -- the playground of filthy rich SPECULATORS.
Oil suppliers have been able to meet ALL their international orders to date, which means that prices should have remained low and stable yet the price of oil went through the roof! Why? It certainly does not reflect the normal cycle of supply and demand. SPECULATORS began investing HEAVILY in commodities markets.
BIG players work together against small players. After extracting huge profits from the markets they pull out leaving YOU, the public, with the bill. At the moment it's an artificially inflated, $130/barrel oil price, which you pay on top of all those other unfair artificial increases – the Hague has NOTHING to do with YOU, ay! The ‘Hague’ is a lot closer than you think.
You’re probably wondering why anyone would take the time to state the obvious; a slave is a slave regardless. Try and answer it yourselves. Failure to act in the face of the most heinous criminality gives license for greater crimes. Why do you think your rights and liberties have been evaporating; to what end is the surveillance on citizens, which has very little to do with foreign threats but everything to do with social control.
People have plans for you; the need to tighten their grip on you clearly indicates those plans are anything but pleasant – good fuckin luck you pathetic, bunch of spineless shits – YOU DESERVE EVERYTHING THAT’S COMING and it won’t be pleasant. I’ll give you a hint; it has everything to do with survival and population control – YOU SEE, YOU’RE EXPENDABLE!
The cure is simple, arrest the criminals, restore integrity to the judicial system, regulate the economy and distribute wealth widely and equitably – perhaps declaring open season on speculators may help send a very clear unambiguous message to the rogues that have hijacked the nation!
