The Supremacy Sci-Fi of Human Civilisation: From Caves to Spaceships and Back to Caves

Posted on by George Tsakraklides

In its futile quest for the ultimate delusion of immortality, humanity always sought to convince itself of the most vivid supremacy fantasy: that humans are not from Earth.  The industrial revolution, the look and feel of our modern cities, our cars, our houses, were all shaped to subconsciously convince us that we are not even … Continue reading The Supremacy Sci-Fi of Human Civilisation: From Caves to Spaceships and Back to Caves

Revolt of the Consumatrons: Resisting Economic Growth

Posted on by George Tsakraklides

By now, it is becoming clear that capitalism is a death trap for both civilisation and the planet hosting it.  Yet most of us continue to go through the motions of “work, shop, repeat”, feeling like we have no choice but to pretend that “normal life as we know it” can somehow continue.  We struggle … Continue reading Revolt of the Consumatrons: Resisting Economic Growth

Resisting the Curse of Global Capital: Transformation Through Collapse

Posted on by George Tsakraklides

It was unavoidable from our very beginnings that a species with this much in-built psychosis would only be able to give rise to a self-destructive civilisation.  The full-time job of government, corporates and the media is now to simply keep everyone convinced that this self-annihilating civilisation is somehow supposed to make sense.   Well, it … Continue reading Resisting the Curse of Global Capital: Transformation Through Collapse

After Helene: How To Make the Climate Crisis Totally Disappear

Posted on by George Tsakraklides

Years ago, when I warned that one day the climate crisis will be forgotten, many didn’t believe me.  Trawling through social media posts in the aftermath of Helene, I came across the pain, the suffering, anger and desperation described in the personal accounts of witnesses who lost everything: their house, their loved ones, sometimes an … Continue reading After Helene: How To Make the Climate Crisis Totally Disappear

Collective Incrimination: How Global Capital Gets Away With Everything

Posted on by George Tsakraklides

Every criminal can walk out of prison free if they manage to incriminate the prosecution.  Global capital is a gangster who gets away with murder every single time, by implicating us into its crimes. As consumatrons we are wholly dependent on the criminal necrosystem of the human Ponzi economy.  We are accomplices who are bribed … Continue reading Collective Incrimination: How Global Capital Gets Away With Everything

How Government Became a Hiding Place for Capital

Posted on by George Tsakraklides

The idea that a small group of individuals can form a “government” representing the best interests of its people has been one of the most disastrous leaps of faith humanity ever took.  Arguably, as our societies grew, we had no choice but to form these governments.  Although transferring power and authority from the masses to … Continue reading How Government Became a Hiding Place for Capital

Planet of the Working Zombies

Posted on by George Tsakraklides

The entirety of humanity has become one big business, and each of us is, willingly or not, part of this ever-growing, destructive, polluting, utterly pointless corporation.  What is the point of working when there is hardly a job left on the planet which doesn’t guarantee the end of civilisation?  The problem with jobs today is … Continue reading Planet of the Working Zombies
