ENERGY IS MORE THAN GAS
OR MONEY 2
Culture is local
adaptation for survival. Culture surrounds a new human, constantly,
and is their reality as they grow up. Any other tribe which holds a
different culture as their reality is looked upon is disdain and
distrust. They are NOT of your reality, meaning, basically, they are
full of crap and are unworthy of the same status as you because of
it. Look no further than Americans hatred of Muzzies. We see them
as barbarians who stone their women. And worship what is clearly a
made up God ( like the Mormons, in the eyes of many ).
*
The only thing that is
different is that each side has a different culture and hence a
different reality, which both think are correct ( the stoning
adulteresses thing, I agree with by the way-but then I'm funny that
way thinking a vow should mean something ). I'm not defending
Muzzies, you understand. I think we should nuke them all from orbit.
Even if some Europeans get in the way, it is still better. Of
course, since I am in no danger of becoming King Of Earth, they are
all safe.
*
Here is my point. You
all grew up in an Oil Age culture. To you, this is reality. When
anyone questions your reality, such as some punk ass bitch like
myself, you reject that because obviously it isn't reality. It
doesn't matter what reason or logic I use, we all know people lie and
use statistics to lie better. That is what someone from another
culture does, lie to you to gain an advantage. Why, this Jim fellow
is worse than a Muzzie! You think I'm being silly, but that is
exactly your thought process.
*
Because your parents
lied to you ( look, Timmy, Santa Claus came! ), and your teacher lied
to you ( look, Timmy, how wonderful Lincoln was ) and your boss lies
to you ( Timothy, your work is so good I wish I could give you a
raise ) and your wife lies to you ( oh, Tim, your huge Johnson
pleasures me so ), there is no way in Hell you are going to listen to
me try to convince you about Peak Oil. I mean, golly! The
government would never lie to me about that! How hard is this,
people? Weatherman Rules. The exact opposite of what you are told
is closer to the truth.
*
If “everyone” forms
a consensus that we are in Gore Warming, you had better plan for a
grand solar minimum. If the government tells you the banks are in
tip top shape, better buy silver. If everyone knows that the oil
will last another fifty years, better plan on it running out in five.
Believe nothing of what you hear and very little of what you see.
And if you think I'm the only one full of crap, you must believe
everyone else and their BS . If you agree with me, you're too easy
:)
*
Mass delusion is not a
bad thing. It helps with solidarity. It is only bad when it works
against you. Was Hitler a bad idea for Germans? Not really. The
other powers obviously already had it in for them. They were already
economic chattel. They could fight with a chance of winning or they
could remain under their yoke. Don't forget that England embargoed
them after WWI was over, to force them to sign the treaty. Citizens
were dying of starvation and cold. If your mother died that winter,
how would you feel about the Limey's twenty years later?
*
And don't even bring up
the Jews. We supported Stalin who killed a minimum of twice that
number, years before WWII. We used the corpses as justification
AFTER the fact, just as Leftists clamber over the cooling corpses of
gun massacres to usher in their own Stalinist utopia. Killed Jews
were just a means to our own colonial ends ( just as Black slaves had
been ). Another mass delusion ( not that Jews were killed or not. I
could care less. The delusion is our reason for going to war, as if
they weren't selfish ).
*
No one cries over the
dead Iranians in WWII, victim of joint American and Russian
geopolitics ( and a good enough reason for the Persians to start
hating us ). I don't care about dead Iranians, either. I don't care
about the upcoming tens to hundreds of millions of dead Americans,
either. Few of them are my people. I only bring up the historical
dead to make the point. Only YOUR dead count. Which is why I
understand how pissed off the Jews or Iranians are. I just don't
care myself. But even their anger is a mass delusion. Past dead for
future agendas.
*
We treat victims of the
culture wars as further justification for continued culture wars, so
intent are we on our grasp of that reality. We ALL step on the dead
to further ourselves. It isn't just siblings acting poorly to gain
the lions share of a parents estate. But back to our reality of
living in the Oil Age, hmmm? Culture is fixed. It cannot but be
static, as change endangers its stabilizing effects, its survival
aspect. We don't understand that, as we no longer have any culture.
In its place is a hodgepodge of surviving slivers and ad hoc
replacements and work arounds ( thank you, progressive pukes, for
Brown Shirting for the bankers ).
*
But you WERE born into
a culture, one where gushers of oil were so copious and reliable that
your entire surrounding reality was Oil Rich. Like all cultures, it
does not lend itself to change ( our cultural wars trying to kill
centuries of ancient family culture, prior to Oil Age inputs and
changes, are near three generations fought now, and it is still
stubbornly clinging on. This points out how resilient culture is.
So it is no surprise the Oil aspects of that, so new, show no signs
of diminishing ). You cannot change a culture, but you CAN change
you. If you wish any chance at surviving the collapse, you have no
choice. You have to make the hard choice of individually partially
withdrawing from your culture.
*
That is true in many
aspects of survivalism. If you are off grid, you have divorced
yourself from the norm. Gun owners are already in the minority ( and
when the time comes a lot more people beg for guns-as did the idiots
in LA during the Rodney King riots-well, screw them! They aren't
part of your tribe now and it will be too late later. Think of them
as party crashers or Johnny Come Lately's ). A majority might
profess faith in a deity, but only a minority truly live the required
life. Given all that, how can you argue against more change
embracing a contrary lifestyle and viewpoint?
*
We got a bit off track
here. Tomorrow, embedded energy as a better indicator of Peak Oil.

You're on a tear Lord Bison. Had me laughing all morning. Oh, dear me!

Not going to say anything but let the last harsh light of a fading summer illuminate your post Labor Day rant. Bravo, your closing words sum it up.....
"We got a bit off track here..."
Glad you get a chuckle out of my spit speckled tirades, in between me pissing you off with my analysis :) Seems the least I could do.
DeleteYou are correct on the oil and for those that doubt it, ask them why driverless vehicles are being afforded an insane degree of government consideration and cooperation. Short answer is that the personal freedom of travel will be regulated for a myriad of reasons, not the least of which will be the rationing of petrol fuels. Good times lad...tuna fish and .22 shells the coming currency of the realm!
ReplyDeleteFuki tainted fish and Remington manufactured duds. But it beats ditch weeds and a spear made from a Chinese steel kitchen knife.
DeleteBison,
ReplyDeleteA request:
Please settle on one definition of 'as'.
My preferred ('cultural'?) definition:
"during or while",
as in "Lenny enjoyed the fragrances as Martha masturbated."
Using 'as' as a substitute for 'because' interrupts my flow of understanding of your, admittedly, remarkable words.
Inserting 'as' in place of 'because' skews the meaning of your, astonishingly, informative words.
Or, keep doing it the 'flexible definitions' way of the Eww-educated crowd, and risk joining the gay bunch as they enjoy the rainbow weather-caused changes to the climate ('gay' meaning 'light-hearted', not 'fruits') (and by 'fruits', I mean 'fairys').
Jesus, woman! I can barely translate my own writing after the fact as it is. Stream of consciousness rarely meets Officer Grammar under friendly circumstances. :) No worries. I agree with you that my writing should be flawless in all aspects. Working towards perfection every day, but don't expect certain examples to be corrected automatically. My memory only works with repetition.

ReplyDeleteSmells like fund raising vaporware. Happy to be wrong.
DeleteWilson apologists propaganda. Wilson was a giant dingus who I do NOT believe was ever sorry for the creation of the Federal Reserve Bank. All other prog programs just followed. If I wasn't so lazy, I'd dig him up, tear off his head and crap down his throat ( well, approximately, being just bones probably ). Lincoln would be next only because Wilson would be practice in case anything went wrong. Don't want to mess up with Lincoln. FDR deserves to be strapped to a tactical nuke and detonated, but I'm also too lazy to find one of those. And broke. I could just pose his corpse on the floor by his overturned wheelchair, with Wilson humping him and Lincoln following in a train.
ReplyDeleteJim, that's not a pretty visual ... a dead president daisy chain
ReplyDelete:) One of my better daydreams.
