Man, I don’t know… I try to have faith in the human race. But the more I put on my “They Live” glasses the more I see droves of people walking around looking like mindless ever-consuming creatures with bulging eyes… drooling and incapable of independent thought. Comfortable in their trance, and comfortable in whatever gray and mundane world that’s been laid out before them.
I do have faith in individuals with common sense. Independent thinkers. But when it comes to groups of people who go along with the status quo out of pure “survival instinct”, It’s always going to be lunacy.
To be clear I don’t dislike consumerism. In fact I cannot stand the “own nothing and you will be happy” crew in equal if not much higher amounts. Both sides undoubtedly meet for afternoon tea in the back rooms to discuss how they will feed us soylent green/carbon butter/fake meat, divide and conquer the planet, and profit from the insanity, death, starvation, and destruction they inflict upon all of us. The line in They Live “I’ve got one that can see!” is reserved exclusively for those who can see beyond the illusions that have been casted upon all of us (whether you veer politically more towards the left or the right). Our reptilian overloads don’t choose sides, because they are both sides. And they don’t like the people who know that, because the people who know that are the ones they can’t manipulate or profit from. The people they do manipulate get to be pawns in their game until they are of no use to them anymore.
Roddy Piper who played the main character in “They Live” called the film the greatest documentary ever made. Right on, Roddy. Right on (and may you rest in peace). Many of us feel the same way, but all of us are about to find out how true that statement really is. And also, how right David Icke has been all along.
