NonEntity's Columns
"Ownership is a social construct. It is not something one can proclaim. Rather, something like trust, it must be earned. It is something that is granted to you by others. Entreaty, not declaration, is its potting soil. Like love, it can only be obtained by giving it away. And just as similarly, that is no guarantee." Column by NonEntity.
"Think of it. Instead of this man being alone against the awesome and unaccountable force of this fellow dressed up in a costume claiming to have superior (in fact life and death) authority, this clever implementation of modern technology combined with caring and concerned people created a situation where the power was not so one-sided." Column by Nonentity.
"What we are shown is cogs in the criminal cartel, complaining that those productive people they are sucking the life-blood from are no longer giving out such large and lustrous golden eggs as they did in the past--when there were fewer leeches." Column by Nonentity.
" It struck me part way through Mr. Olbermann's articulate tirade (against the insane policies of Mr. Bush and his followers) that his anger was only justified by the fact that he was foolish enough to have believed in the false idea of 'proper authority' in the first place. As though Mr. Bush, or anyone, can somehow or other acquire the control and responsibility for the life, choices, and actions of another person, or an entire group of them." Column by Nonentity.
"The second man, it will be explained by the first, had been informed of the rules, and even if he had not, that is no excuse, as ignorance of the rules is one of the rules." Column by NonEntity.
"Wars seem to create their own justifications. The 'War on Drugs' has created the cheapest, most powerful and most easily obtainable drugs in history. We couldn't possibly have created such a world awash in harmful drugs if we'd set out as that as our main goal." Column by NonEntity.
"So all of you voters out there, you who believe that you have the right to pass laws (laws are things which 'authorize' enforcement by the police), just remember that, at the very least, you are the equivalent to those in that bar room who were cheering on the rapists. You may not have the guts to just go out there and take what you want by force, but you can 'get your rocks off' by cheering on those brutal enough to violate others with your support." Column by NonEntity.
Practice Transforming the World, Non-Violently
With a computer game. Column by NonEntity.
"The fact that it is fluid, open and democratic means that it is more likely to have the broadest source of minds, research and information in general informing its pages, and that as knowledge changes and grows there is a much better chance that new ideas will show up there than down at the local funded-by-the-I.R.S.-thug-inspired-taxpayer 'supported' 'educational' indoctrination institution or library." Column by NonEntity.
MUST READ "How has it come that we no longer see each other as people? How can we reverse this trend? The next time you are asked for identification, consider the ramifications of participating in this system. Who owns you?" Column by NonEntity.
"There is an old story about how the empire was lost for want of a nail. EACH ONE of us may hold that nail!" Column by new Root Striker NonEntity.
