Divide and Conquer

by greenfire Saturday, Jul. 21, 2001 at 10:03 PM

corporate media strategy at the request of their robotic masters

So I get home from work, and I race to put on the TV. I hear the sickening and shocking news of a protestor killed in Genoa. It could have been anyone of us! Any one....the police state is absolute: They murder someone and then claim that he was a terrorist bent on world derstruction. Same thing happens aropund the world every day, in the rainforests, in the prisons of capitalist humane nations, in the psychiatric hospitals of the television state, in the fields of Africa and in the factories of China. That is what we must change.

We are told that there are two kinds of protestors. How absurd. How unaware. That person killed in Genoa by the police state and the corporate plutocracy is as much a brother of mine as anyone in the IMC, or in my profession or in my community. His death shall not be blipped over as the corporate media try and force our brains to do. The bullets that killed him are aimed at each one of us. Murder is about to go unpunished so someone can join another golf club built in a place where golf courses should not even be.

If anything, this should cement bonds between non-violent protesters and protestors who equate property destruction with liberation. We must not give in to the divide and conquer strategies of the Talibanesque right wing capitalist scum and their slavish corporate media cogs. We must give sustenance to all fighters against the capitalist death machine and remember the deaths of our friends throughout our long upcoming struggle.
