Let's get seriously serious. Lets get a few things straight.
I'm living in San Francisco, basically the most progressive, hippy-dippy activist city here in the States. To the 20-somethings out there: where is our revolution? Are we really just going to keep sitting here twittering and blogging and drawing silly little comics and crossing our fingers hoping for "change" and "hope"? Well let me tell you, nobody - not even the all great all knowing 'Obama' can shit rainbows. Change doesn't happen through composting our eggshells and smelling our own farts because we drive hybrids. Change comes out of fucking anarchy. Change comes out of tearing down the bullshit - not putting band-aids over it. And everyone (yes YOU) is way too scared of terrorists, swine flu, rain, car accidents, nuclear war, cancer, crabs, political incorrectness, religion, atheism, crime, allergies, video game violence, meat, vegans, sexual orientation, lightning, money, money, money, little Timmy falling down a well, illegal drugs, prescription drugs, AIDs, telemarketers, dentists, spiders, the IRS, fires, taxes, bears, aliens, lasers, ginger kids, sex, noise, sweat, throwing up, dying and so on and so on to do or say anything about what we REALLY want. I want more anarchy. And I REALLY want some people that will fucking yell instead of cowering behind bumper stickers, the word 'green', and pointing fingers at the evil 'conservatives'. You're all ridiculous! (both parties. sheesh.)
Basically I'M AS MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS ANYMORE.
Are there some non-meat-sacks out there or am I just shouting into the wind?
ps. I know I know. I'm a giant hypocrite since this is 'blogging'. Well, Rome wasn't built in a day, douche-bags and I gotta start somewhere.

I was totally going to be like: "YEAH! VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!"
But then you got to the part about Dentists, and I had to stop and go: "Ohhh.... Yeah...."
I mean, you can toss all the Sexually irresponsible, nuke wielding, ill seeming, Timmy pushing, pill-popping, spider-porcine zealot-terrorist-telemarketers in the world at me, and I'd be cool. But I just seriously can't stand Dentists... I don't like it when they start to drill and I smell parts of my skull burning...
Rioting the fuck out of shit is super underrated.
Banks screwing you out of hamquillions of dollars?
RIOT THEM
You should hang out in France miss.
They have weekly multi million people strikes and public protests.
... And it actually works.
oh kids...
If you want change, sitting around and waiting for it wont do the trick, no. Neither will getting run over by a tank, or burning yourself on the capitol steps. But don't discount the power of the small changes people at large are making.
Change is a thing that comes about in small steps, like flakes of snow on a mountainside. Each is almost imperceptible by itself, but gather enough together and you have an avalanche.
They're usually small, and rarely seem like much on their own, but each is a step in the direction of bettering the world. Track back a few decades, and you'll find yourself in a very different era; the concept of same-sex couples, racial or sexual equality, or so on would have been increasingly alien ideas... and yet that's where we've gotten ourselves to as a culture and a people.
Step by step, and piece by piece; 'dems my two pence.
