Excerpted from Chapter 7:
Politics of
Life
Unfortunately
for them tha world is a place full of uncontrollable random factors that nothing
and nobody could possible
control.
Imagine how
frustrating that
must get!
Earthquakes
and Typhoons
laying waste all the cities of police and laws every time they build
them back
up...take that you bastards!
So in
reality of mechanization and factories, life itself and tha embracing
thereof
is tha ultimate revolutionary act you can take part of. It’s
like taking a step outside of a
bubble...like throwing mustard into a computer and saying compute that! -

…It
was
quiet in my house.
It was very
quiet.
i stepped
down the stairs.
Rob was
typing, it was 1:30 am.
“Where’d
everyone go?”
“FUK
SHIT UP.” Rob continued typing.
“Oh,”
i said sitting on the stairs.
i
understood them.
We were all
full of rage.
i wanted to
join them, but they were long
gone.
So we
stopped destroying ourselves
and we went out to destroy someone else.
And for the
first time sitting on the porch looking down the quiet
streets at the rows of white picket fences...
i
understood.
Yes i
understood
CLASS WAR, i understood FUKKING SHIT UP, i understood RAGE, i
understood
RIOTS.
No one was
listening, it didn’t
matter how many fliers you handed out; changing one person’s
mind wasn’t good
enough anymore.
It
didn’t matter how you
voted.
Things were
getting bad too
fast.
Yeah
education is good, change is
good.
But
it’s hard to educate when they
don’t even realize there’s a problem.
And maybe
the poor, maybe the black/brown/red/ white trash/ rejected/
runaways/ abused/unwanted people in this world aren’t
screaming loud
enough.
But i
don’t know how much louder
we can scream.
Yeah, we
tried to play
your game. We tried to tell you your way.
You
didn’t listen - now i guess we’ll tell you our way. We’ll
show you exactly how we feel - it’s not
very pretty.
Yeah
i’d like to go FUK SHIT
UP.
i kicked a
beer can and it hit
Walter’s boot.
He looked
up.
“Want
some noodles? “ He said,
taking the pot off the burner…
You
must
be insane, stupid, blind, evil?
Who the
fucking hell are you people?
Telling me
I’m free, free to obey, free to be a slave, free to waste
away my life in a
world that denies my humanity.
I am free
to be thrown in jail when I am acting according to my personal beliefs. I
am free to be intimidated by men with
badges and guns. I
am free to observe
these same men beat a man in handcuffs with flashlights. Yes,
its true, I am free to starve in a world
where food rots and is thrown away waiting to be purchased. I
am free to witness the whole world being
destroyed, raped while the mass which I am part of treks along through
a
racist, classist, sexist, fascist, hate-filled life of shit fed to us
by the
same people who call us free.
