Did you Vote for Change?

for Accountability; for leveling the playing field; for National Health Care?

Well, your vote apparently doesn’t carry as much weight as it use to.

Here’s one of the main reasons why:

U.S. Democracy Under Siege — Senate Debate Excerpts

Excerpts from the Congressional Record of the October 14, 1999 Senate debate.

There has been a tidal wave taking place, that threatens to swamp our fragile system of Democracy.  Indeed it probably already has …

I was playing with my grandson tonight.  He is two and even though he is still talking in his own made up language we seem to understand each other completely.  He had a plastic sword and I was going to dub him a Knight by tapping each of his shoulders.  He didn’t understand but when I assumed the position by getting down on one knee he did the same thing.  He did so and then I anointed him with the full status of Knight of the Realm.  He then relapsed into contemporary TeeVee land and proceeded to smite me with said very same sword.  I then elevated myself to the status of wizard and everybody knows mere swords can not touch a wizard.

But personal diversions aside I call your attention to the coming Satanic event billed as the “wonderous” transition to digital TeeVee.

Hundreds of high definition digital channels await you a mere 353 days, 12 hours, 10 minutes from right now.  Are you impressed?  No I am highly depressed.  What they tell you and what is behind the scenes.  It is much like the past seven years of legislation with noble sounding titles and hidden destructive memes.

This “change” is not for the better.

This is the official sappy government FCC site touting the “benefits” of digital TV.

http://www.dtv.gov/

Note all of the marketing hype. I can become a “DTV Deputy”. I can get info in spanish. Note how an entire site is geared towards the simplemindedness of a five year old. To me at least it is chock full of subliminals diverting your focus away from the Satanicness it will bring. In order to get to this let’s click on the FAQ section on the left, that stupid looking TV remote control. After that go to Why are we switching to digital TV. Here is the answer.

“An important benefit of the switch to all-digital broadcasting is that it will free up parts of the valuable broadcast spectrum for public safety communications (such as police, fire departments, and rescue squads). Also, some of the spectrum will be auctioned to companies that will be able to provide consumers with more advanced wireless services (such as wireless broadband)”.

Wireless broadband! Why is this a bad thing? Well if you have no problem with being watched 24 seven or have no problem with government knowing your every move then fine. As an engineer I could also price out very cheap solar powered mini spy cameras that only need be in range of another ugly cell phone tower. Oh, watch the proliferation of uglyness in those babies!

Financial houses are investing in corporations that will meter and control your water and electric use. Yes, you will be rationed.

I don’t see rationed energy and water use as a “benefit” of digital TV.  

Sorry but I don’t see the benefit of government partnerships with companies making all of their products outside of the United States.  And for what 300 channels of crystal clear mindnumbingly stupid “news” and or programming engineered to decimate good moral behavior.

What is does mean is the re-allocation of lower frequecy spectrum, RF energy with a farther reach potential.  They are going to reach into you life and crush it.

Hey but you’re happy, just look at the clear picture!

My Ghandi solution? Go dark Feb 17,2009 go dark. What will you miss? Mindnumbingly stupid corporate “news”? MTV and E channel shows socially engineered to degrade morals? TV evangelicals declaring I-35 in Texas the Holy Highway?

They are pulling the plug, we should too!

As we approach year end spare yourself the recap of the year’s past events.  Do you really want to relive your worst nighmare?

Most admired?  OK, 6 out of ten zombified mouth breathers we polled………

I rest my case.

I can simply point to the most recent FCC decision to allow further media consolidation equating that to the true and final creation of the Ministry of Truth.

Also up, next year starts the destruction of the net.

Remember net neutrality?  Watch as the shitstorm of AOLism comes to the “telecommunications” industry.

Want ads on your cell phone?  You are going to get them.

Want more vacuous airheaded mainstream material streaming content piped directly into your internet enabled cell phone?

Want “levels” of “service”?

266 bidders for the upcoming 700Mhz “auction”.  Ok, I do take this at face value.  The government is selling RF spectrum off to private corporate interests  Thereby polluting my atmosphere further with electromagnetic energy while telling me I have to give up a car due to “global warming”.

Newly found site, leans right, but the purest amoung us realize this is deception.

Hey, I did get new Apocalyptic horse riding boots for Christmas.

On Friday, November 30th the following story was released, describing how the FCC bent over backwards in order to bypass it’s own rules regarding saturating/dominating local markets in order to please a corporate entity.  The corporate entity in question is Newport Television LLC, which sought to buy up 35 Clear Channel stations.  Well, now they can thanks to the “hard work” put in by the FCC that came up with this nifty idea: Rather than making the corporate entities actually follow the law and risk  losing a financing option or two why not just provide them with waivers?

The sale of the 35 television stations will mean the new owner will be out of compliance with FCC rules that limit the number of stations one company may own in a single market. The market areas include Bakersfield, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Fresno and Monterey in California; Salt Lake City; Albany, New York; Jacksonville, Fla., and San Antonio, Texas.

the more they apparently stay the same, or sometimes go backwards.

On October 3, 1957, Judge Clayton Horn had ruled that Allan Ginsberg’s poem “Howl” was not written with the intent of obscenity. Fifty years later, the epic poem is still regarded as one of the most important literary works of the twentieth century.

Fifty years later, “Howl” is once again too obscene for American audiences…
