Reply #25: Removing the props to the status quo [View All]

[sweetheart]

The US has lost its moral right to complain about abuse of women,
the poor and enslavement. It practices all of the above, as a cultural
institution of its criminal government. The torture at abu grahib
pretty much sealed that in the world's collective consciousness.

If we really want to bring about an end to what you rightly point out
as evil, we must "walk the walk" and cut all support and affiliation
with national governments that eschew womens equality. As long as
we support dictatorship pakistan, racist israel, dictatorship egypt,
and monarchy saudi arabia, there is little moral ground to complain.

Instead, we talk a load of crap, putting nothing in to practice except
murderous war killing policies for graft and repression.

THe reason that arab societies are so backward is that we have
been helping them stay that way, by militarily and socially accepting
their evil-parts as the status quo. But as long as we accept that
our own nazi criminal government is the status quo, there is no
ground for change.

Slavery, in raw numbers is greater today than at any previous time
in human history. Claiming to sort this out, even indirectly, by
murdering 100,000 civlians to steal their oil, whilst 3.5 million
people are slaughtered in eastern congo, has taken the moral thunder
and turned it in to a perverted whisper.
