Looking at all the events unfolding, it makes me wonder who the true anarchists really are. The people, or the government?
When the hell did Saturday morning cartoon villains start seeming like the sensible explanation?
So again I ask. When did cartoon villains stop being cartoons? Is this perception a flaw in myself, or does it actually describe real events, as mind-bogglingly insane as that sounds?
I've had a nagging feeling that I've had foresight of all this happening a good 10-20 years ago (hell, even when 9/11 happened, I felt that something was a bit off. But that topic could derail this one. Short story, I was the only person in town that kept his cool for the next few weeks afterward. Hell, even with the World Trade Center buildings burning, I had faith it would blow over and we will live on and prosper, and we'll be alright; or at least assure it to help the more shaken up.). It started off as an interesting story to go by; but now that it has become reality, all I can really say to anyone that even remembers any of my ramblings or random topics (like at workplaces and whatnot) is essentially the same thing as I say with most TV shows nowadays (except some animes, but those are different cases), "Saw it coming.". Elaborating on the response would be, as expected, "the reason I didn't act or speak up is the very same reasons lucid crackpots keep their mouths shut. Why talk or act when everyone just labels you as crazy? (the not good/fun kind)"
On the earlier statement, not to demonize our current president either, but I recall in the past that my mom was on just as shaky ground about him as I was, and once he was inaugurated, her view changed on the flip of a coin (though my BS-meter was off the charts) and flipped back a good amount of time later (and some of my other relatives got hit similarly) only when things were turning for the worse. When you come and think about it, this whole supervillain collective idea seems like sturdy ground.
I mean, there are more than enough dick moves strewn about the previous term or few to show some serious gambit placements. Then again, if I was patient enough, and would go for controlling the world (never would, too much work, never worth it, and everybody would want your head in a heartbeat, not to forget, "...and then what?") I would plan some manipulation tactics all over the place like so. The big guys are scared, and killing will be the only other way to scare us straight. But our overseas enemies are no more, and killing as many supporters as there are at once will give rise to suspicion, unless it was planted by a mole or few via bomb (likely planted within the forces' own cars as IEDs with a few "acceptable losses"), provided it sways the media towards the "control group"'s view; which would completely contradict the actions of the movement, and can easily become what sways the "control group" into seeing what the Occupiers see. Such a dick move tactic is a double-edged sword, if noticed beforehand, and used properly. Use their own weapons against them. If cut off at the source an Occupier finding the IED first, and getting it as far away from everyone (including police forces) as possible (likely a noble innocent death/sacrifice), and even taking a picture of it and sending the image before detonation revealing it to be more sophisticated than anybody on site would ever make, that will definitely show a hidden truth.
However, back to 'reality'.
With my mentat skills, I perceive/estimate that the forces/"Control Group" (viewers, more than police) will be questioning the loyalty and patriotic value of the people, or call them socialists or be pinned to be unfaithful/anarchists are evil. Some smartass will state that they may not be "saints" like the media showed the president, or anyone else running this country, but any, and I mean
any individual in this group has a ton of faith, like the mustard seed; more than any other "saint" has
ever shown on TV, and unlike them, We (the Occupiers) are real people. We may be sinners, but at least we seek repentance. Quoting the Bible verse itself even (poster board included maybe), “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have
faith as a mustard seed, you will
say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you." --Jesus Christ (with picture included; possibly also wearing Kamina's glasses). That'll shut them up (with at least words to that effect). But knowing the media, they'll just be dicks and either ignore it, or make it like a show of mockery, rather than a point of just how unstoppable they are, just by standing their ground like a tree; or in these cases, a thick forest.
I mean, watch a vine grow all over a brick wall, and watch that brick wall eventually fall apart or erode into nothing. Plants can essentially also do that to mountains (not an elf).
EDIT:
I like that sinner line I came up with. Sounds like it would knock any Holier Than Thou type off their pride pedestal, and flat on their ass. Definitely keeping that one as a comeback for the future.
