Why this Summer, of all Summers?
The answer is simple: it’s a trick question with a false premise. There is no fabled evil Duopoly. There is only the myth of evil Duopoly, eagerly professed by the burned-out, the brain-damaged activists and the intellectually lazy. And eagerly clung to by those who’d much rather complain about the world’s problems than get off their butts and actually DO something about it.
“Run to the hills!” shout the Committee Of The Outraged, urging us to flee while there’s still time. But then why are they still sticking around and making themselves targets?
I think it's because THEY know they’re full of it, too.
See, belief in Duopoly means never having to take responsibility for your own lack of action. If the battle’s already lost, and there’s no chance of winning, then why even try? Just stand by the emergency exits and tell people to get out before they get burned, even though there’s no real sign of a fire in the theatre.
Even though, if the theory were true, the “exit” would most likely lead to a gas chamber.
Show me a believer in the great Duopolistic takeover of America and I’ll show you a grumpy paranoiac who sees a vast, sinister conspiracy behind every tree, and points out that there’s a whole lot of trees. I’ll show you a 9/11 Truther who thinks there were only two plane crashes, or maybe none at all. I’ll show you someone who’ll cling to any “fact,” or “testimonial,” or online petition just to bolster the argument that someone, somewhere, set up us the bomb.
I’ll also show you a paranoid lunatic who’s lost all right to call themselves “progressive,” or even “liberal,” and should instead be relegated to the same dogma dustbin as people who think the Protocols were real, we faked the Moon landings, and reptile people run the world.
