Why I am going to be called a Traitor

When does national pride becomes national arrogance? Pretty often when you think about it. The whole I’m better then you. Look at my flag and muscles, their a lot better then your flag and muscles mentality that only serves to divide people up into ever increasing categories of pig headedness. You always hear, “Believe in the virtue of your country, follow your leaders.” Yeah, well if your country and leaders jumped off the Tri-Burrows Bridge would ya?
Patriotism only serves to inflate egos and deflate our independence. What is there to gain? Can I eat Patriotism when I’m cold and wear Loyalty when I’m hungry. In all honesty I’m not to fond of the way their country is heading and I’m not using the excuse I was born here to go out and root root root for the home team just because I happened to be born here.
National pride, racial pride, scene pride, group pride. It’s all the same soft drink just in different flavors. People who are too scared of themselves to think for themselves, can’t take responsibilities for themselves, so they lose themselves in a mob mentality gone mad and hope there’s some intelligent life out in the higher ups. Yawn, been there done that. Fuck that Bundle of Sticks shit, we’ve seen where these unions of will take us.
And Democracy is not much better. Whoever has the biggest voice and most pitchforks wins all the marbles. Have you ever even met a politician? The Democans and Republicrates are practically identical, you can’t trust them. At all. If one comes into your home is best to hide the silverware and take out your 2nd Amendment because these folks will nick the fillings out of your teeth if given a chance. If it is fat, old, white, and a man chances are your in trouble. Unless it’s Santa. Then your get presents. Otherwise it’s kind of the reverse. Democracy is the greatest tool of oppression. There’s no better way to install a dictator then if the dictator was voted in by a 99% approval rating. I don’t see I big difference between taxation with or without representation, I’m still getting taxed.
So then you got all these yahoos going on about “What the fore-fathers wanted for this country is…” Spare us. Unless you’re the personnel reincarnation of Samuel Adams (BEER!) shut your yabber hole. Fore-Fathers; your just dividing up loyalties (yes I know, but besides being an Anarchist I’m also a proud Hypocrite) between those of us who are still living and those who are dead long enough to have their own monuments honoring them being dead.
I’ve never met America personally, never had dinner with her or gone out bowling or nothing. Scuse me if I don’t trust an amorphous theoretical concept with some imaginary borders drawn on a map. So as of today I officially renounce my U.S. citizenship though I will still carry a U.S. passport, take advantage of and likely abuse ALL public services, and complain too often about how my rights are being impeded upon. I will define myself as the sum total of nothing because I prefer not to bind myself up in silly realities. I exist (at least I think I do) and beyond that nothing really matters. Hell, I’m not even certain I’m human, for all I know I could be a bizarre type of fungus that likes to complain too much. Just tomorrow they could tell me everything they ever thought about people was bull; gravity is an illusion, the earth is really an over baked muffin, and government is just some cheap slight of hand gimmick. Oh wait a tick, it is.
Goverments tools; borders, barriers, Berlin/Palestinian walls, they don’t nor can ever succeed. People are smatter then rules, you build taller walls they’ll build bigger trebuchets, no matter what as long as there is a buyer there will always be someone willing to sell. Black Market trading is the only true Capitalism. All the silly little Narcs can ever do is help raise the prices so the drug lords at the top gain a higher profit. Redistributing the money into hands people not might necessarily want them in, like Tony Montana or that other guy. It reaches a point where the only way to win the war on drugs is to legalize all drugs and thus eliminate the cartels (a.k.a. corporations) evil little monopoly on the market. Government is bad for business, economics and ethics.
Has anyone ever heard of the Snafu Principal, this guy Robert Anton Wilson came up with it, here it goes. People do not trust those above them and vice versa. Both for good reasons. The ruled will always subconsciously or otherwise tell the rulers more or less what they want to here. How many times when you were a kid did you make up stories on why your little sister’s pig-tails are gone to make it sound like less your fault. Same concept. Meaning it’s theoretically impossible for those of authority to gain a totally accurate idea of the situation below them, maybe semi-accurate but never total. Those at the top get paranoid, hiring more cops and building more prisons (since it’s a police officers duty to make arrests, one naturally leads to the other). No human being can possible keep track of all the laws there is to break so creating new/more laws can only serve to creating new/more criminals.
This only creates more paranoia and even worse inter-caste communication.
So more intelligence agents are hired to spy on the citizenry, but since spys are paid to spy on everyone, including the offices of power, they soon congregate a file on every representative from every state from every district, giving them a monopoly on information and blackmail. So the now near schizophrenic state has to higher even secreter police to keep tabs on the secret police, leading eventually to a state of infinite looking over your shoulder, whose society and economy is addicted to neighbor watching neighbor.
And that’s the Snafu Principal(s). When law and order goes freaking squirrel nuts.
