TRUTH AND REALITY

 

The excesses of capitalism and the failures of education have finally caught up with us. Here we are in the 21st century with anywhere from 30 to 40% of the American people so stupid as to vote for Donald Trump. And, of course, Donald Trump exists because of the various excesses of capitalism and the failures of education.

We have demonstrated and witnessed the lowest lows to which the species can fall. Trump did not work miracles. In fact, all he did, since he's a con man and a grifter, was recognize he could take advantage of many stupid people. So, he went to work. It's not so much work; it's just speechifying because he was good at that. But it's all a bunch of nonsense that he spews around. People are falling for it left and right. They need to learn what's good for them and what is right and wrong.

One of the main features of American society today is the absence of a collective moral compass. Religion does not promote morality; in fact, quite the opposite. Religion promotes immorality in that the religious right supports the likes of Donald grab them by the *****, Trump. He does nothing but lie, and nobody calls him on it. The religious people are just salivating that he is their champion. That’s backward. There's no moral leadership. Name one person in power who demonstrates the ethical leadership ascribed to Jesus of the Bible (there is no proof he ever existed).

I'm not going to be around much longer. And, of course, I will cease to exist. For all intents and purposes, I will never have existed at all. However, I spent my life searching for the truth, and the truth is unbridled capitalism is immoral and antithetical to the species' survival. Religion is the bane of all creation and stands in the way of survival. Religion probably will be the cause of the extinction of the species. And I am convinced that this species will bring about its own demise. My point is that today's American experience demonstrates that we're on the road to extinction. The wealth gap is so significant right now it's almost insurmountable. The lack of education is appalling. The evidence is overwhelming that 30 to 40% of Americans will bring down all institutions favoring autocratic leadership. And who knows where that's going. The best proof of that? Hitler

I just don't have time to do anything about this. Not that I could if I did have the time. I really feel powerless. Not even my vote counts. It's all canceled by the rednecks. Perhaps the closest I came to doing something about it was when we demonstrated that we took to the streets (on behalf of the NAACP and the Socialist Labor Party). I just don't think you can do that anymore. There are too many guns. Too many crazy people. Ultraconservative. Radical. 

I want to make this my last will and testament, whatever that means. I am sure that there is no life after death. I will be extinct. Just as I was before I was born. I leave behind a bunch of failures to help fix society. I could have done more. I should have done more. I was tied up in my own egocentric experience. At this stage, I'm trying to pass on truth and reality. That's all. There's no sense in fooling ourselves about what life is all about. It has no meaning. You make of your life what you can. There's no purpose in life. It happens. Randomly. And all you can leave behind is your thoughts about how things are.

There's no such thing as faith. Faith is belief in the absence of any kind of critical thought at all. It's a cop-out. Faith is just like a god and all that ****. It is the cop-out for something we don’t take the trouble to try to understand. I guess that's one thing I'm saying is that I have taken the risk. Yes, that's why I really want to say this. I have taken the trouble to really understand what this is all about. And. I'm trying to pass it on.

I'm not trying to create some literary masterpiece; far from it. I'm just trying to leave behind something of me. Somebody will read it, and there'll be a lot of people who will agree with me. And say it a lot better than I do. They would have taken the time and pointed out this all happened before me. I'm not saying anything new. Great people have gone before me, saying the same thing. Even more people will be coming after me who will say the same something. I was critical in my thinking to question everything. And to come up with my own conclusions about what's real and genuine. We really need to place a premium on that these days because we have a guy going around who is a monumental liar. And he's got everybody else lying at the same time.

It has gotten to where Americans are now known primarily as liars. Everybody lies. And it's the way you're supposed to act. We're entering an age of total immorality in the experimental society in which we live.  We now realize that 30 to 40% of people do not know morality. And they think that it's all based on religion. Religion today is the breeder and sustainer of immorality. That's where it's all coming from. The religious right. They're hypocrites. Their so-called beliefs are immoral. And they blindly follow a charlatan who would be king.
