Carpe-ing My Diem

Itโ€™s no formal conspiracy of course, but there is a liberal near-obsession of cataloging all the things they will be forced โ€” just forced, I tell you! โ€” to take away from us all in the name of โ€œthe environment.โ€

Wanting to compel us to live like Coptic Christian 9th Century monks out in the Egyptian desert wonโ€™t actually help the environment, of course, but it sure is a hell a lot easier than taming corporations or gestating some positive, aspirational plan for the future of humanity. Thatโ€™s why the constant drumbeat of these individualized solutions that do nothing to alter the status quo.

Expect much more of this as the propaganda effort spins up to full speed, along with more talk of eating bugs, living in pods, and never traveling or even going outside, etc.
