I Didn’t Vote Mk II

So, a couple of days ago, I made this long posting about not voting. In the EU Referendum thing. Yeah, that EU Referendum. Heard about it? No shit. Well… one response I got to it (a reply I didn’t even disagree with) somehow made me highly dissatisfied with what I’d written. This is a troublesome swamp to be wading in. Right now, I’m not sure I want to, to that extent. My position isn’t changed, and it’s simple: I’m an anarchist—I don’t suppport the system/establishment as it currently exists—I do not involve myself in voting within this system one way or the other.

I Didn’t Vote

No vote from me. Nope.

The Internet is nothing if not supremely obnoxious in its overflow of putrid effluvia focused on the whole EU Referendum bollocks. From both sides, arguing like the rival gangs of monkeys they are, flinging shit at each other and feeling all self-righteous and meaningful. I’ve seen more profound rows going on in a fucking schoolyard. What a miserable, ugly spectacle it truly is.

Dog Microchipping & Beyond

Compulsory since April 6th this year, the mandating of microchipping for dogs in the UK (and the rest of the EU, come to that) represents, to my mind, a step too far in this cycle of out-of-control Big Government.

There are a lot of pro arguments for dog chipping, parrotted from official propaganda—it’s ‘essential’ to combat the growing stray dogs problem, for instance, even though the numbers for such have dropped massively in the last 30-odd years (when did you last see a stray dog?); to not comply means you’re not a ‘responsible’ dog owner (classically idiotic, black & white, Us vs Them thinking), etc.

It’s all smoke & mirrors. The real purpose of this asinine, fascistic “law” is twofold: firstly, the big corporate interests manufacturing these techno-turds profit handsomely from it (a la many other unnecessary medical applications & drugs); secondly, it forms part of the acclimatising process that readies the public for HUMAN IMPLANTS.

Crazy? Improbable? Tinfoil hat territory? Not really. Since this law came into force, (not so) coincidentally we’ve already seen a literal raft of positive propaganda pieces about the medical benefits of chip implants in human beings. And the stories about this stuff just keep on coming……
