katsterKevin Fox. I don't know how I stumbled across his blog in the first place (IIRC, it was ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
phenyx's fault, but I added his page to my syndication when syndication started on LJ (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
furydotcom for those of you who are curious), but today, he had this very long and interesting thought.

The short of it, is that now is seriously the point where I'm really seriously starting to look north. To be utterly honest, I'm not sure there's anything here for me anymore, but then again, I'm not sure where on this godforsaken rock I can get away from it? And nobody really seems to understand?
As Kevin put it:
" Our government has told the world that they're either with us or against us, and if they don't like the way we run the world, well, then they just might be next on our list. This is the same ultimatum that's also being given to the people of our country.
"How wrong is it that I fear a repeat election in 2004 more than anything that Iraq, Al Qaeda, or even North Korea could do?
"How can we stop this ride? I want to get off."
How do we stop it? :P

Seriously, I'm starting to think that the only way that we can get real change is from an utter destruction of the system as it exists, or some kind of radical mutation of policies and agendas that leaves us with something completely unlike what we have now.
It really doesn't help that we've basically got only one political party in the US, with two seperate factions.
I dunno. It's impossible to feel anythign but apathy and frustration when it comes to the situation -- you just feel utterly helpless.
