The Majority

The Majority
 
JMJ

A grand peril has stricken the minds, and hearts of those born into our age,  as we huddle in great masses around the light of what was done before us….with much less. 

As though we are enlightened, we strike keys, and touch screens, and create soundtracks to our lives.  On screen, and wired in, and powered by solar energy, fueled by ginseng diluted with sugar water, and carbonated.

 Our whole generation is carbonated, and phony, and hungry for the magical lives we were promised by the electronic boxes we were babysat by.  

Bullshit

We’re so hungry for what’s around the next corner, as though what’s around the next corner will have the power to teach us the values we have forgotten.

 We’ve pissed away our values, replaced them with things of value.

 Predatory lending has given way to predatory spending, and predatory living, in a predatory jungle inhabited by  hollow mannequins wearing “Save the Whales” shirts, nibbling on energy bars, whose fast food diets are supplemented by leaves, and herbs that we sell back and forth to each other on the internet. 

Only a generation as dense, herded, and gullible as ours could sleep soundly through the night, while our children were being  shot at, and blown up in the middle east for eight years. 

And in true American form, we let the darker ones fight first, and ultimately clean up after our stupidity, with the same sense of entitlement we feel when we ask them to do our yard work.

And this is not a small portion of us, some tiny segment of our people, inbred, and ignorant, and thoughtless…..

This is the Majority.
