Scientifically Fashionable

I’m getting used to the idea of human extinction after reading about cycles upon cycles of species’ extinctions. All the while, popular, semi humorous, self effacingly obnoxious politicians and religionists parade back and forth on stages, proclaiming their scientifically fashionable skew of Mother Earth’s natural cycles without mentioning the word unavoidable.

Corporate leaders, whose unethical gambles are acceptably embedded, multiply reckless games of politicizing climate controls just to see who’ll gain the most dollars and votes from the electorate. That’s business as usual, and another thing for which to stay awake.

Further, it appears citizenries have been trained to neglect science too much. And, we’ve been trained to manage things, which potentially disrupt shrined lifestyles, by throwing money (a grand retail panacea) in the way of the forecasted predicament. Perhaps, it’s still too early for Earthlings to imagine fixes rather than avoidances for cascades of systems’ breakdowns given our shallow three centuries of industrialization.

Just follow the money. It’s too easy to see who’s cashing in on nature’s cycles. It wouldn’t surprise anyone to find religious, corporate, and educational juggernaut systems’ profits pumping the hearts of marketing and advertising, claiming assumptions that Earthlings endanger the planet if we don’t buy into scientifically fashionable collusions of profiteering bankers. Umph! Preposterous.

Political sock puppets handled by swaggering industries tell taxpaying hirelings that humans are entirely responsible for warming the planet—it’s fashionable to say so—a mere pander to advised actions not purported to solve problems but to postpone them, a bit.

Who’s popularizing and retailing products and services for visiting the surface of the sun? If there’s profit to be made by politicizing such an absurd trip, would corporations and obsequious politicians highjack the idea by not publicizing to people who would likely buy into it? Worse has happened.*

It certainly seems we Earthlings can be as easily stupefied as ever; it’s a wonder our species has lasted this long! No matter how suspect, believing moralistic speeches and politically allusive promotions has become desirable, rather than exercising abilities for studying scientifically attributed articles and reports of varying theories.

Possibly, we may awaken ourselves from our scientifically fashionable delusions, avoiding unreasonable purchases of programmable thermostats, compact fluorescent light bulbs, energy qualified washing machines and who knows what other retailed items, which by their use, only avoid for a while and distract us from anything profoundly grander—like the sun’s transforming creation with or without human hubris to dodge it.

*Republics aren’t highjacked every day, but fingerprints are all over the USA Constitution and Bill of Rights. The unconscionable Patriot Act helped usurp the USA, too. To presume a nation isn’t confiscated by design is to disparage the forerunners’ expertise upon which leaderships glide, and who knew precisely the dupes they were perpetrating at the opening of this century. Results of masterminding then commandeering were part of the design, or the game and its preselected saviors wouldn’t have been offered as sacrifices on the playing fields, eventually falling into spectators’ disfavor. Some players, the high ruling lordships, pretended to be newsworthy evangelical. What glorified shams have been put in place, and promise to still more players the monetary dreams of the good life of corporatocracy while religious-political cartels remain stealthy and threatening in the name of caring—all by false power. Are we taxpaying hirelings in the soup? drowning in dupes? Or just asleep?

It’s too difficult to awaken anyone who pretends to be asleep.

Our constant curiosity is key
to watching what’s being created.
