Scholar Henry Giroux says America's current political system is leading to a culture where people are so focused on surviving, they become like 'the walking dead.'

I am 100% human being 
and 0% commodity.

Any outfit that sees me as a commodity,
in any way for any split second
has shown me the ultimate in personal disrespect,
has shown itself as my sworn enemy,
that needs to be taken down.

I am not a consumer
I am not a customer,
I am not a commercial entity,
I am not a client,
I am not a credit rating,
I am not a pin code,
I am not a bar code,
I am not an account number.

I am a human being.
Not one speck of commodity in me.
Any force that sees me that way seeks to enslave me.

My personal sovereignty as a human being 
faces 2 great faith-based threats -

The first from faith-based followers of an ultimate authority in the sky, 
to whom they've thrown away their freedom 
in exchange for the self-enslavement of kept dependency.
They seek to force me to live by what they claim their authority says.
That's bullshit.

The second from faith-based followers of deregulated money and markets,
to whom they've thrown away their humanity
in exchange for the self-enslavement of being a commodity.
They seek to force me to become a package of profit-potential for somebody else.
That's bullshit.

Fuck them both, for they are equally vile and freedom-killing.

I shall never give one speck of consent 
to any of the bullshit 
spewed by the mindless zombies who've been captured 
by either of those 2 faith-based bullshit systems - 
god or money. 
They are both destroyers of personal freedom, dignity, and sovereignty.

Never.
Not
one
speck
of
consent.

Fuck god.  Fuck the church.  
Fuck money.  Fuck the banks and markets.  
Power to the people!

I want a strong, muscular government
that will protect me from
those twin destroyers 
of all that's good about humanity.

Not a govt that will require my subservience.
But a govt that will protect my personal sovereignty
from usurpers, so that I can live my life free from fear 
of other people's unwitting 
faith-based self-enslavement schemes,
such as god-ideology 
and unregulated-market-ideology.


Trapped in a world I never signed up for...
