the eichmannization of culture

'what?'

radio voice: as a citizen of the USA you have a lot of say in what happens in this world! but you know, there are some that feel overwhelmed, ineffective, or powerless with regard to what happens in our name. are you happy with or do you give much thought to the way we deliver democracy to ourselves? how about our military role in the middle east? do you think it will bring those countries a good democracy like ours? with the 2010 elections coming- these will be the first bonafide state sanctioned corporate owned elections- do you still feel empowered and in control of your country's destiny? of CIA operations, of rendition flights, of drone attacks, of guantanamo or baghram, or your own citizenship? do companies like Blackwater, Chevron, Coca Cola, or BP keep our best interests in mind when making operational decisions? does your authority over these matters give you comfort and a clear vision of an environmentally & economically stable future for your children?

'look: i'm tired after work, my kid's a diabetic, i've got heartburn from my dollar menu meal, i'm trying to enjoy this can of PBR before i make dinner, clean the kitchen, pay bills & fold laundry. get it, weird radio voice?'

radio voice: ha ha! so nihilism & schizoprenia have become the norm in the USA for anyone with enough time or energy to pay attention. instead of dealing with this directly, may of us seek continual distraction. these conditions, along with the accompanying low regard for 'society' have been fertile ground for [myopic, self serving, resource consuming, population exploiting, environmental hazard creating, & now with free speech-$] corporations to bloom and flourish.

radio voice: ..so perfectly seamless- see, there's no disconnect because we're all disconnected now!

And Have a Great Day!
