Once again it is that time of year....a time that is supposed to be reserved for good will and tidings to our friends and family, but every year the "American Animal" forgets about these simple things and focuses on the must have item of the year. I am talking about the rampant mass consumerism of Christmas......Now dubbed Consumerismas.
The whole unholy shebang kicks off the day after we stuff ourselves silly celebrating the slaughter of damn near an entire race....Almost makes you wonder if the Nazi's had a thanksgiving.
The dubious day in question is referred to as "Black Friday", a day where tons of greedy and eager to please sheep herd themselves into massive shopping centers in search of that one pseudo perfect item. Forgetting all about love and spending time with the family, the American Animal seeks to show their affection by presenting shiny bauble after shiny bauble as if to say their love is measured by the amount of gifts a person receives from them.
Some of you may remember last year when I wrote Happy Holiday's? The Death of Santa Claus and may be asking why I seem to hate the holiday's so much...Well, I don't hate the holiday's I hate what we have turned them into. I shouldn't say "we" I should say YOU, the American Animal too busy to show anyone real love and caring so you do what your older loved ones did to you which is buy people. No I didn't forget a word, that is exactly what you people do. You buy and sell people, with every toy or trinket and every over indulgent purchase. What is worse is that your are corrupting your kids into thinking they HAVE to have every god damned thing they see and want, that is the driving force that caused a man to die at a Wal-Mart in Long Island. Greed and impatiences killed a man, and do you think any repercussions will come of it? Probably not.
If that isn't shocking enough...Ya know, a man having his life literally stamped out. How bout a view of the shit first hand?
Look at all the fucking livestock. Rushing into the slaughter, some pushing and shoving their way through the doors and for what exactly? What happened to the simplicity of Christmas? Where has the true meaning of Christmas gone? Do we need to start putting it's picture on milk cartons? Do we even remember what it looks and feels like?
I know that a lot of people who read this will just sluff it off as one man and his ramblings, but it isn't just me saying that things need to change drastically and quickly. There needs to be some accountability placed on these stores as well as the shoppers. There is a whole truckload of fault to be passed around at discount prices, but yet you don't see anyone lining up to get that sale.
One more thing before I leave you to your own inner workings....Aren't we supposed to be in an economic crunch? Isn't this the perfect time to reteach your kids as well as yourself about the simpler things in life? To find joy and happiness in activities that don't cost a thing. Fuck, if anything teach these little snot nosed ungrateful fucking brats the value of a dollar. Teach your kids to see you for loving parents and not just a walking ATM.
That is all............for now.
