To make a profit, a capitalist must sell a product for more than what it cost to pay the labourers that produced the product. The labourers do not get paid the full value of their labour. Profit is thus unpaid labour.

Corona virus vs humans
Agent Smith: I’d like to share a revelation that I’ve had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you’re not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You’re a plague and we are the cure.

Lockdown idiocy
Lockdown due to the Corona Virus is necessary for some situations. Let’s face it. It is created to give politicians, with minimal medical experience, time to relax and think about what is going to happen to their votes if they do nothing. It is a bit shitty for them as we all know their hands… Continue reading
Online privacy conspiracy theorists lack credibility
Online privacy conspiracy theorists lack credibility because it is difficult to distinguish them from being Google and Facebook trolls or Gish Gallopers. Name a conspiracy theorist that proves theory with scientific fact. Wiki leaks are not conspiracy theorists, they are journalists. Edward Snowden made a big splash with his revelations. Still, unfortunately, he is not… Continue reading
Prophets
The prophet or seer is a man of strong imaginative powers, which have not been calmed by education. The ideas which occur to his mind often present themselves to his eyes and ears in corresponding sights and sounds…. Prophets have existed in all countries and at all times; but the gift becomes rare in the same proportion as people learn to read and write.

War and Peace

War and Peace, a different perspective. If only people are willing to see the deception of politicians they will understand we are all pions in a business game. Only the dead go free. There are images that are so good that adding words is futile. This is one of them. The image spoke.
Re-evaluate your morals
If this scene does not bother you try imagining it with your pets sitting there. This is a crime to innocent animals. The owner is not a farmer, he’s a brutal sadistic torturer and narcist. I can only imagine that in a 1000 years time this will be illegal. Let’s hope. I don’t see it happening in the near future. Big companies are making too much money without environmental consequence.
Seeking a positive in social media
I wonder if there is anything positive that comes out of using social media. What benefit do we get browsing mindlessly through an insane amount of unimportant posts from people we never engage with physically. On many levels, social media has lifted the gossip channel to a higher level. We have an insatiable curiosity about… Continue reading
The Myth of the Latest and why the second-best is best
We are not driven by what is positive in our lives. Our action comes from what is negative. We are negative driven. Which I think is sad, but that is how society has evolved. If we all strive for what is positive, the world would be a completely different place. For one, there would be no wars.
Continue readingHumans; the new evolutionary pest of this world
I have this self-awareness about the human encroachment over the earth surface. Look at an image of the earth one showing city lights, as in the image below from NASA. Is there any space left? Where to next, the Moon, Mars some distant planet. I don’t think so. Not many politicians and non-scientists realize it, but… Continue reading
