Back in my more innocent days, when I was trolling through the information available about the future of life on earth, I emailed Ernest Partridge following an article i had read by him, asking the simple question; "Is this as bad as it gets?" He kindly responded that he believed it would get a lot worse, a lot, lot worse, before we collectively woke from our slumber and acted in our best interests... at last!
I paraphrase as it was some time ago, but it appears from Ernests most recent writings that we still haven't gotten to the stage where we all wake up. For fucks sake, people better wake up soon!
"Are we, like the fruit flies in the bottle, predestined to meet a horrible fate due to forces beyond our control – beyond our control because we cannot overcome the blind economic interests which dominate our political processes and which own the mass media that misinforms the public?"
