"Oh Shit! ... GMO Food Sterilizes People ... And It's Really A Form of Population Control?"
"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."
Alexander King, Bertrand Schneider - founder Club of Rome - The First Global Revolution, pp.104-105
"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill ... All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

IS THIS LITTLE GUY A PERSON?
The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

"A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal."
Lord Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science On Society (Routledge Press: New York, 1951).
"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"
Denmark Vesey For President 08
1. Troops Out Of Iraq Immediately. Like By Monday. 2. Money Owed To Haliburton and War Contractors Be Given Directly To The Iraqi People 3. Complete Electoral Reform 4. No Corporate Conglomerate Will Be Allowed To Control More Than 5% Of News Market 5. Federal Reserve Abolished 6. For-Profit Prison Industry Abolished
*George Orwell (1903-1950) English novelist, critic
Men can only be happy when they do not assume that the object of life is happiness... If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear... The great enemy of clear language is insincerity... The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it... To see what is in front of one's nose requires a constant struggle... For a creative writer possession of the truth is less important than emotional sincerity.

Manute Bol--Conscious Athlete, Afrikan Peace Activist, Dedicated Humanitarian.
If only this type of consciousness was pervasive throughout our global community and sports.
May his heart be as light as the feather of Ma’at. May he soar through eternity on the wings of Heru. Like, Ausar, a tree planted by the water, may his commitment never be removed from our consciousness.
"If only this type of consciousness was pervasive throughout our global community and sports." MB
Then what?
What would happen if this type of 'consciousness was pervasive throughout our global community and sports"?
What's your take?
If 100 NBA dudes were just like Manut Bol in this regard .... what would be different?
all livin’ organism,
connected by 1 DIVINE system,
unity in diversity,
unity of opposites,
is the beginnin’ of wisdom,
what manifest on earth,
is that which is accepted n da heart,
no self consciousness,
then self centered foolishness,
self interest is the plague of man,
creatin’ da memes n’ material brand,
minds trapped in the matrix of disconnectedness,
cant perceive a DIVINE ONENESS
raise the consciousness of a ONENESS,
n’ y’ll see heaven on earth,
with a quickness,
RIP my African brother.

Cheikh Anta Diop posed the question, civilization or barbarism? This world is on a collision course with barbarism. Manute Bol was doing his part to push us towards civilization. He is a model to be emulated.
If there were a hundred black millionares who cared about society, and not just shallow materialism, they could rock the world.
When black folks have been motivated to move mountains, the geography changes. And those efforts are usually undercapitalized. That many black folks with money would make it "cool" and hundred others would join in just because it's the thing to do.
Suddenly we'd have think tanks, PACS, and all the other devices it takes to change legislation and create economic opportunity.
With a success or two under their belt, some might decide to make a habit out of it.
Well said Dude, very well said.

Dude. Mak.
I hear ya.
Sounds Good.
But ... come on now.
100 millionaire 'Manut Bols" in the NBA ... OK.
We get 'think tanks', PACS & "Legislation" ... That do WHAT?
Not bustin' your balls ... I really want to know.
I for one, cannot imagine ANY "legislation" that could do anything to slow down or stop the millions of black people who will die from diabetes over the next few years.
I cannot imagine a PAC that could do anything to thwart the war on men and fathers in this country that is destroying families.
Now ... If Kobe Bryant or LeBron James were to finish each NBA interview with "Say No To GMO" (Denmark Vesey style) .... I could see a whole domino series of positive events triggered.
Goodbye, Manute...
(I did not hear what happened to him. Was he ill?)
He had a lot of health problems in recent years and I think his kidneys failed.
contracted the skin disease as a reaction to kidney medication he took while in Africa.
undergone three dialysis treatments and developed Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, a condition that caused him to lose patches of skin.
big pharma strikes again.
We as a people are so committed to failure that the first thing we do it focus on what can't happen.
The assassinations of MLK and Malcolm X seemed to have killed our ability for constructive dreaming.
But to your question directly DV, the PACS and think tanks would just be two of the tools in a toolbox.
No reason why we shouldn't have our own version of Blackwater for military operations, domestic or international, for example.
But the bigger point is we have done so much with so little, the proper resources and the desire to actually get things done, a lot more could happen.
The fact that every problem...or even many problems...would not be solved should not be a deterent.
