A Capitalist Running Capitalism?

 

 

A Capitalist RunningCapitalism?    

 

It becomes clearer to morepeople everyday that Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” maneuvering and shapingmarket forces into being beneficial towards humanity has become a massive forceof waste and destruction visibly giving humanity the finger in far more thansymbolic ways. One of the materially obvious ones is Donald Trump once againbeing president of the United States. Some LibCons and ConLibs rejoice but mostcapitalists are near terrified, along with a general public manipulated but foronce almost equal to a ruling class though only in fear.

 

The center of globalcapitalism has been imperial America since the end of the second world war andthat ruling power is nearing its finish which cant come too soon and may meanultimate destruction if it doesn’t happen soon enough. But this happening isnot a matter of fate but of human action taken on behalf of humanity’s survival.Unfortunately, under the near total control of anti-social corporate media,millions of decent citizens are reduced to calling the American minority ownedand operated society “our” democracy, totally swallowing the notion that beingable to vote defines democracy.

 

When reminded, or just aslikely learning for the first time, that the all encompassing boogie man AdolphHitler came to power under supposed democratic election rules and not byshooting his way into power, as infantile political science teaches from gradeschool through college, they accept the notion that his evil was so great andpowerful nothing could stand in his way. Much as naïve Americans think Trumpwinning an election for the second time was anti-democratically arranged byfascists who somehow materialize when things are going wrong anywhere andeverywhere that capitalism rules. The lesser evil form of capitalism that ranthe nation and much of the west after the end of WW2 was known as capitalistsocial democracy and it made life better for a broad section of the workingclass so that ruling wealth and their professional class servants would notface the danger of revolutions such as happened in Russia and China and werethreatened in growing numbers of nations. That phase ended later in the 20thcentury and became a return to alleged free market and austerity politics thatsaw much freedom for a minority class of capital and growing degradation forthe great majority as previous government programs at least partly aimed atpeople who needed help mostly reverted to help for wealth to become morewealthy and in the inspired capitalist religious faith able to invest andthereby create more jobs and prosperity for the great unwashed, as advertisersand politicians often referred to the public.

 

Screeching about fascismwithout pointing out that it is the logical extreme of the system when it is introuble as always neglects the basic point that the only connection betweenHitler fascism in Germany and alleged Trump fascism in America is capitalism.In its local and global forms it is sinking into bloody degeneracy that humanitycan see more clearly than ever, whether in Israel, Ukraine, Yemen or dozens ofother places in Africa and Asia and Europe. Naturally, consciousness controlworks harder than ever to distract, misinform and lie, still successful among ashrinking number of mortals but failing fast among the majority paying for thewretched outcome of a tinier minority than ever lavishing in wealth whilegrowing millions suffer physically and mentally.

 

 

 

 

Decent, well meaning andsincere Americans who refer to “our” democracy miss that it is a marketcommodity in which a we get what they pay for minority pays for and a majority sufferas parishioners at the Capitalist Cathedral where prayers are about as usefulas belief in the hypocrisy that passes for “our” democracy. Our true belief andacceptance of the faith needs to end soon or all of us – true believers,agnostics, atheists, members of the WGAS minority and others – will pay theultimate price of dying in a nuclear war, at worst, or suffer a slower death asnature in all its form succumbs to minority rule that reduces humans, earth,air and water to profit making consumables. Trump’s seeming blunderingrepresents marketing at its near extreme with failure looming larger as doeshope for humanity.

 

 

 

 

Voting is easier-and as meaningless as ever if not more so - thanat any time in our crippled history. All one had to do was fill out a postcardand mail it postage free to have the right to vote for an employee or well-meaning stooge for capital. Black vote white vote testicle vote vaginavote etc. the voter is guaranteed unaffordable housing and healthcare whilebeing allegedly represented by moral disgraces who rush to bury their faces inthe crotch of banking, finance, Israel and the military murderers who make our allegeddemocracy smell like a combination of social vomit and political excrement. 

 

Trump’s assault on business as usual horror has introduced newtechniques to do the same thing: create profits for a shrinking minority whileincreasing losses for the majority, which has reduced the upper professionalclass to near hysteria and their subjects to worse. Instead of the usual formof society being run for capitalism by its upper servant class it has an actualcapitalist acting as CEO of the bloody corporation, this one having an egobeyond measurement accompanied by an intellect almost incapable ofmagnification. Yet while reducing most to panic he has pleased many by makingsounds of peace in Ukraine even while increasing the menace of possibly themost insane, stupid, dumb thing imaginable: war with china.

 

The wider and more populated world is being brought closer by capital’sdemise and this while the minority west is facing economic ruin and furthersocial disgrace. Trump is a further sign of the end of empire and the hopeful beginningof a global population united by common interest that all of us should beassured of food, clothing and shelter before anyone can have so much more thanis needed for survival as is the current case, with billionaires making moremoney while mass murder goes on in Palestine/Israel and more American live inthe streets while our pets are guaranteed creature comforts and health carewhile more American humans suffer than during what was called the greatdepression. Since that time depression has become a moneymaker for the psychbusiness but humanity will cheer up once it/we works together, for a change.Maybe we’ll ultimately thank Trump for helping to bring about the end of capitalismand the beginning of global democracy. Whatever and however, we need to uniteas members of the one and only human race and speed up the process.
