Welcome
back to the RAC blog! Your one-stop-shop for on-the-road auto-care
do-it-yourself pick-me-ups. Nah. I’m
only kidding, fella! This RAC is the Revolutionary Army of Crackers. Your
one-stop-shop for …er….a load of made-up shit. Never mind! Now you’re here we
might as well make the best of it. Anyway my shit is better than your gold.
Truth.
What
I try to do, now on a monthly basis apparently, is to convey, (usually unsuccessfully)
that while this may look like a nonsensical ramblings of a mad person or a
sarcastic idiot taking the piss of who-knows-what ineptly, this is actually a
wonderful gift from an entity whose dimensions you have not yet built the
machines to measure. In fact it will be machines built by machines that will
able to achieve this and you only really be able to understand what they
present to you in your meta-form where you exist as a unitary-organism outside
the confines of your individual physical lives and concerns. Don’t worry, it’ll
come and be much more satisfying than you’re imagining. The analogy I like to
use is of the mushrooms on the lawn whose relationship seems to be that of one
between autonomous entities whereas in fact they are merely manifestations of a
single almost entirely subterranean organism. The trouble is that I’m very old,
a bit confused and a very much reduced
version of the meta-entity I’m ultimately part of, so I forget of what use to
us that analogy is supposed to be. All I do know is that in the analogy I’m
supposed to be a different type of mushroom altogether. Or maybe I’ve just
taken too many mushrooms. That sounds likely. It definitely involves
mushrooms. Hmmmm mushrooms! I’m hungry
now.
Another
type of mushroom is of course, Michael Portillo who’s obviously got all cocky
since I mentioned him last month and has started shooting his mouth off about
Europe. Maybe he figures he’s got nothing to lose now I’ve unmasked him as an
alien visitor and that he might as well take whatever the city boys are
offering to help normalise the idea of pulling UKOGBANI out of le EU before it
gets round to regulate their highly profitable fun and games. Maybe him,
Lawson, Healy et al are right and we’ll lose the goose that lays the golden
eggs but to me, the European project is not just noble but necessary in the
evolution of how human society is organised despite its very visible
shortcomings. I propose that a voluntary federation of democratic states able
to operate as a single unit when circumstances demand is the only model worth
following. Sovereignty and identity are lost as a result of economic forces
that are inevitable so long as there is a consensus in the world of the
rightness of free-market capitalism which for the moment is successfully
holding. Democracy on a trans-national scale is perhaps the only tool that can
preserve any degree of sovereignty and identity in self-defining communities
despite the widespread perception that the opposite is so. I do not see The
European Union as looking to or having succeeded in any way in abolishing
cultures and identities in even its core nations. Nor do I hear Germans
bemoaning working-time directives or health and safety legislation etc as we
are so often told here on our island our leaders of wealth constantly do.
Naturally one is always concerned to prevent a concentration of power at the
centre but in the electronic capitalism of early 21st century Earth,
the whole concept of power is not always easy to nail down. Power exists in mass-culture
and flows onto the streets and through the politics and back into the money and
into sex and into death and into the future. Er yeh…it’s poetry innit.
Basically it isn’t just some guy in a uniform telling you not to do that or
else. Human choices make the world. I want you to….I WANT YOU TO SENSE YOUR OWN
STRENGTH!
As I say, I might be totally wrong. I’m not that brilliant at reading what you pretty Monkeyforms are apt to doing though I always love finding out through your many various news outlets. It’s like an exciting on-going planetary soap-opera. Some idiot psychologist said on the radio recently that it’s much better for one’s mental health to avoid the news altogether. Well that’s all very well but what if he’d started off showing off his Jim’ll Fix-It badge or something? He must have wondered what those wars were about if he heard about them at all. He’ll certainly wonder what’s going on when my followers take control of his civilisation and begin erecting an enormous statue of a pink cartoon dog-thing with nice ears for all to venerate as only I do today. Lovely Crackers! Bounce back to us, little Crackers! You are forsaken no more!
