The Coronavirus and the Ruffian on the stairs. The virus is carried in the blood of the shark skinned suited men who run for power. It's attached to the skin of the bankers and money nen . It's promoted and sold by the arms dealers who follow those of the shark skinned attire. The world bank has killed more than any virus ever will. Each day those in the third world die because of debt, lack of water and food. Since the Lib Dems and the Tories brought in austerity in 2010, 120,000 have died from its plague. The length of life is declining in some cities the average age at which the poor die is 58 and the wealthy 85 The corona virus gives the Tories an opportunity to hide the bad news, obscure their forgotten promises and create fear and loathing. The plague comes in an education system determined to stop critical thinking and make a docile low skilled and low informed voters except the way things are.
The
power of the state tips in support of the economy rather than it's
people. As Joe Biden prepares to become Hilary Clinton 2.0 we find the
plague promoted by certain right wingers and centrists. As Peter
Mandleson once said we are all Thatcherites now the Ruffian on the
stairs walks with them all. As the mainstream candidates of the centre
and right walk with the Ruffian explaining how things are and knowing
who they prefer. They simply desire the status quo and loath Sanders
and Corbyn more.
We all wait for the Ruffian on the stairs and thousands will meet him today. Yet it will not be by the Corona virus. It will be at the hands of the system promoted by the centre and political right. The smoke and mirrors of late capitalism covers our eyes and blocks our perceptions. The Ruffian on the stairs looks at us all and in the fullness of time we all meet him. It is our sharpness and critical thinking and of love that gives meaning to the necessity of death. There are worse things than death and life made stale and empty is one of them. Those who have lost a faith and found a faith will fight on even against the Ruffian on the stairs . Fear of corona fills many and we avoid the question about an economic system that makes the price of antibacterial soap rise and disappear from the shops when it is needed most,,,when the invisible workers who are the cleaners, security guards and social carers are not protected from illness and poverty and are forced to work with broken bones and to hide ill health . This plague is promoted by those who defend the system and they are the allies of the Ruffian on the stairs. The corona virus is the least of his allies but it pays many to promote the virus to equal status. There is only one God and his name is death and all we can say to him is not today. It's about resistance and the journey of life it's purpose. The freer the market the more brutalized the people and the more devalued. Don't fear the Reaper.. or the virus there are worse things and individuals...
