Letters to the Future No. 1

“You don't know what's happening on the other side of the wall, because you don't want to know.”   James Baldwin

THEY came for the mothers first.  Pushing them into industry, relegating them to stations THEY deemed worth less... somehow, by some standards I have never quite figured out - except mothers are built differently, with organs made to grow not conquer.

Then THEY told everyone the mothers were too emotional for power and authority, while at the same time THEY filled heads with nothing but stories of slavery, and subjugation, and the inevitable oblivion each mother must face. 

Because THEY had wiped the histories of all the mothers and grandmothers who'd ever come before,  Histories of contributions no one would ever see.

Only the white men built anything worth having - or so at least THEY repeatedly informed humanity, since as far back as any can recall. 

Yet some of humanity does remember.  Some know the truth... that it was the birthing rooms, and endless meals, and sickbed nights that really built our future.

THEY took the genocide of mothers and turned it into a funny story and Halloween decorations. 

THEY stole every aspect of femininity from THEIR mothers.

And perverted it into only that which would sell the most.

THEY drove human thinking, with every chance THEY had, into its most vile corners, always driving the bulk of humanity towards darker and darker thoughts, and deeds.

No stories of heroism are real anymore, we have to question it all... and everyone... alike. 

We have been left bereft of nutrition for mind. 

We have been left poisoned in spirit.

Many believe it was a coordinated attack - starting with the diet industry which fed the pharmaceutical industry which fed the medical industry... its false sense of godhood.

It's too perfect to be accidental. 

The lines of people suddenly needing insulin tripling - just as the pharmaceutical industry has tripled the cost.

THEY want humanity weak - in mind, body and spirit. 

THEY want humanity hurting and starving and desperate for work so that they can cover the basic needs of insurance.  Insurance so costly no one can ever actually afford a doctor.

THEY'VE given all the power to industry, turning men into nothing more than cogs in the wheel - each one as replaceable as the next.  Just ask any misplaced CEO after a hostile takeover. 

No one is safe now.

Except for the few who remain hidden from view.

The ones who marionette the famous and the rich - the ones keeping everyone too sluggish to actually resist.

With a media that lies and a government no one trusts it's just a matter of time now before it all rusts.

The masses have all chosen their camps.  The war is all but set.

And so... I pen a reminder to all those who will eventually clean up this ungodly mess.

It all started with the mothers.
