Future Dystopia

Electronics require electricity. The elite know this but figure we are not willing to pull the plug (literally) on modern life and have the population rapidly drop down to pre-grid 1860 levels.

Ghettos where scapegoated minorities are ethnically cleansed into for ease of further oppression are out of fashion. Re-new’ed fashion is an open-air prison implemented by an iron curtain, which Trump voters call a “border”, and Robocop with his drone police dogs guided by military intelligence provided by surveillance capitalism. Go ahead, keep obeying, see how Darwinism responds.

The whole history of the progress of human liberty shows that all concessions yet made to her august claims have been born of earnest struggle. The conflict has been exciting, agitating, all-absorbing, and for the time being, putting all other tumults to silence. It must do this or it does nothing. If there is no struggle there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing up the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters.

This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress. — Frederick Douglass
