What I want to see

I’ve done it all, well close to it, and it surely feels like it. I’ve loved and lost, twice over actually. I’ve traveled, lived in many countries and I’ve seen and experienced more than most people. I’ve slept with more women then I can count and poured more bottles then I care to admit. I’ve tried all the drugs you can name, and then some, and developed an understanding of the world surpassed only by a few. I’ve been beaten up, and have beaten up others. I’ve seen people get killed and I’ve even saved lives. I’ve been shot at and I’ve even eaten two bags of crisps straight without vomiting.

I do admit, I haven’t yet started a family or seen all the countries of this planet. I still have things to do, and things to see, but there’s one particular thing I feel I need to see before I go and meat up with the hooded reaper.

Throughout my life I’ve gathered more experience than I ever thought I would, but do you know what I actually miss?

Do you know what it is?

People getting together and standing up for themselves.

I’ve never seen that.

Why, oh why don’t people care enough, fight enough, get mad enough or love their neighbor enough to actually take a stand?

You idiots out there never do it.

Sometimes in movies you see it, and you can read about it in stories. But that’s all there is - stories. In real life there are no heroes. With the things I’ve seen, heard and read this I can be said with certainty; there are no heroes left in the world.

A hero doesn’t accept the world as it is. A hero lives as the world should be, to show it what it can be. Heroes don’t quit, lay their head down and take it like a good little sheep.

Sadly, I need to admit, I’m not one either. Too afraid, too much of a coward. It is too easy to relax, take a drink and fuck some brunette you just picked up. Very easy.

Maybe that’s it? We’ve become too lazy, too compliant? Or is it just that we don’t give a shit? I’m probably in the latter category. Frankly, I don’t care so much what happens to the rest of you. Why should I? You’re all idiots, pathetic ones at that.

And let’s be honest, the days of the amazing explorer fighting into the jungle or discovering some foreign land isn’t here anymore. We’ve yet to find a way to travel the stars and that 4/5 of the globe covered by water isn’t so fun swimming around in. Besides, when all those excess overindulging stuff exists all around you, why feel the need to?

There’s no problem flying around with the aid of drugs, parachutes or skies. We can get that adrenaline rush by snorting cocaine while banging some hot double D, so why go looking for trouble?

Sure the state is messing up; sure there are still starving and unemployed ass-holes, but who cares?

Right?

Where did our sense of heroism go? Did we ever have one?

I cannot stop pondering on why we live as cattle, as sheep hurdled around by watchful eyes.

Just look at how they punish criminals. Crimes such as rape, theft, abuse and light robbery is hardly punished at all. If there’s jail time, its short, just a couple of years or so. But if you hide your money from the taxation agency, if you carry a gun to defend yourself or if you stand up against government, oh my…

To rape someone gives you a couple of years, to hide a couple of hundreds of thousands in taxes its 5-6 years imprisonment. To attack someone and beat them up is hardly anything else then a slap on the wrist, but if you carry a gun and shot your attacker, then its jail for many years.

It all goes back to making people afraid to stand up for themselves.

It is very subtle for the most part, but it sends a clear message. You only need to look at how they treat people who ignore anti-smoking rules or how individuals that buy sex is handled to see how serious it is when you ignore the righteous agenda of government.

Everyone has been feed from their birth that standing up for rights, freedom and self-perseverance is the worst thing there is. Obeying is the way to go. By obeying you can get ahead, by licking ass you can advance.

We’re also, indirectly, told that if you lie down and take it they will clap you on the head and tell you how good you’d been.

This is how we’re ruled today - by indirect fear.

The powers that be probably learned this from history cos historically speaking those that ruled by direct force have sooner or later been overturned.

Sometimes we can read about how some chap pulled out a family from a burning house or saved a little girl from a carnivorous Polar Bear, but those are exception from the rule and not really what I’m talking about.

I’m talking about rallying people, arm them and storm the castle. I’m talking about pulling out a shotgun when the taxation agency comes to visit.

If someone is sitting huffing from a bong on a public square while nibbling on salty fatty ribs offering their body for payment, that’s their right to do so. And if the police come by to arrest such an individual people around the square should beat the officers into a bloody pulp.

If a restaurant owner is refusing to close according to righteous rules and allows smoking inside and serves his own homebrewed vodka, that’s his right. And if the powers that be send out the military to stop this insurrection everyone in that neighborhood should start throwing molotovs and burn down parliament.

If someone gets jailed for driving without a seatbelt we should break him out of there and if any guard or police gets in the way, they get what’s coming to them.
If the elite want to take our money and hand it over to their rich banking buddies, we should blow up a couple of banks and string up a bunch of politicians in lamp-posts along Main Street.

Not that any of this would ever happen. As said, there are no heroes left in the world.

I know many of you out there have by reading this far put me in the same folder as stone-throwing anarchists and lefties trashing McDonald’s. That’s not what I’m saying.

Listen.

What I mean is that we should protect basic human rights, the right to our own bodies, the right to make our own decisions. Victimless crimes aren’t crimes. If we want to smoke, drink, eat fat, chew down pills or drive our car around our self-illuminating pinkish house until the tank is empty that is our god damn right. If I want to re-name myself Zezhipulickasissi VI or want a real Viking funeral, that is my right.

Those stone-throwing masked morons and the rest of the leftie thugs don’t want to protect human rights, they want to destroy it. To socialists it isn’t enough being slaves and constantly monitored, they want government to go further, to impose more surveillance, to introduce more laws and to hinder any form of individuality. And for some reason they call our current serfdom ‘capitalism’, which is both laughable and very sad.

If the government steals half your money to buy a luxury jet, you have a right to defend yourself with any means possible. Lefties don’t think so; they think government should steal the other half as well so politicians can build a monument or buy another jet. That’s why they throw stones, go to rallies and shout at officials, they want more of the same crap that created all of our problems.

I say we should throw stones, go to rallies and shot at officials every time parliament makes any decision that imposes on our lives. That’s the difference, and it is a huge one.

I wish people would get together and stand up for themselves. To be heroes and fight for what is right. Maybe I’ll see that during or after this current economic depression, but I will not hold my breath.
