Fascism is not in itself a new order of society. It is the future refusing to be born.

The strategic adversary is fascism... the fascism in us all, in our heads and in our everyday behavior, the fascism that causes us to love power, to desire the very thing that dominates and exploits us.

Personally, I'm in favor of democracy, which means that the central institutions of society have to be under popular control. Now, under capitalism, we can't have democracy by definition. Capitalism is a system in which the central institutions of society are in principle under autocratic control. Thus, a corporation or an industry is, if we were to think of it in political terms, fascist that is, it has tight control at the top and strict obedience has to be establishedat every level--there's little bargaining, a little give and take,but the line of authority is perfectly straightforward. Just as I'm opposed to political fascism, I'm opposed to economic fascism. I think that until the major institutions of society are under the popular control of participants and communities, it's pointless to talk about democracy.

We seem to be a long way off from the kind of Fascism which we behold in Italy today, but we are not so far from the kind of Fascism which Mussolini preached in Italy before he assumed power, and we are slowly approaching the conditions which made Fascism there possible.

All you punkers with your
No Future dreams
Follow Johnny Rotten

Following society

Drunk and Quiet

IMPATIENCE with society
BE WHAT they want you to be
IMPATIENCE "there's no future here"
"I'm not lazy I just don't care"
Of course there is no future
when you make sure there is none

All that is needed to set us definitely on the road to a Fascist society is war. It will of course be a modified form of Fascism at first.

I believe that political correctness can be a form of linguistic fascism, and it sends shivers down the spine of my generation who went to war against fascism.

Ever Present

Running

Refusing

A silhouette

A wonderful

A hearts

No government fights fascism to destroy it. When the bourgeoisie sees that power is slipping out of its hands, it brings up fascism to hold onto their privileges.

The ancient Britons had a singular kind of marriage, to be met with among no other people. Any number of them, as ten or a dozen, joined in a society together, which was perhaps requisite for mutual defence in those barbarous times. In order to link this society the closer, they took an equal number of wives in common; and whatever children were born, were reputed to belong to all of them, and were accordingly provided for by the whole community.

Woman gave way to man
The Goddess was the first born.
Far later only was born the God.
Matrilineal was the society.
Woman was supreme in the households.
Man wanted to identify his son
Patriarchal society was thus born.
The goddess became the God’s Consort,
Thanks to the established religions.

The Chosen To Change
I may be psychic.
I may foretell the future.
But the only future I write.
Is with a ballpoint pen.
This future references
future human society.
Therefore it is not applicable
to two lives we ourselves.
Though on a scale
of minimal importance. Dominance.
Visions of artistic output
claim precedence. Intrinsically inscribe.
A prophet is born
to fulfill a specific life.
A preordained energy
and incarnate message.
Is radiated into the beautification
infusing sacred eternal life itself.

Every society in the history of man has upheld the institution of marriage as a bond between a man and a woman. Why? Because society is based on one thing: that society is based on the future of the society. And that's what? Children. Monogamous relationships.

Fascism … is a headlong flight into fantasy from the necessity for political thought … persons supporting Fascism behave as if man were already in possession of principles which would enable him to deal with all our problems, and as if it were only a question of appointing a dictator to apply them.

Maimed
Scarred for life
Screams unheard
Abused and broken
A little body convulsing with pain
Society to blame
Turning a blind eye
Too young to understand
Born on the wrong side of town
A future bleak
Youth incomplete
Tortured souls
Seeking comforts
With the wrong crowds
Heroes of tomorrow
High on substance abuse
Poverty stricken
Unlettered
Confused and misunderstood
A country, fast coming to her knees
Crime and corruption the order of the day

Answer Me That
There
just so,
just beyond
the shadow.
I saw it-
a single sprite-
dashing,
hiding
effervescent.
Running quickly
I can just glimpse
it rounding
the enclosement
threatening
to break out
and be gone
to Futurement
escaping
from me here Now-
gone away
from my pursuit
abandoning
Me to Me
and my meager light
in this Now..
Always the chase
always the escape
always the Sprite
hauls away to the Future
never being captured
in this,
the Now.
How my nourishment-
will
my Future be
if I am starved of it
in my current Now?
How born
is Dread
in this Now
because of this?
I cannot be
or become the Future Tense
if I have no Now.
Also, I can have no Future
if I had not been born.
My past then
is essential
obviously,
to both my Future and
my Now-
all these
seem to be in the Mix.
Somebody tell me this:
If I am
or feel like nobody Now
how can there be a Future me?
Answer me that.
If I am severed from my past
how can there be my Now
or my Future state?
More pointedly
it becomes clear,
at least to me,
I have to borrow from my Future
to sooth my Now's despair
and to placate
my Past
which harbors sorrows there.
And if I can borrow from my future
then it must too be there.
So said Einstein.
Ok.
I have answered me that.
