For comm’ism to end comms would have to end.

But Comms is in there ~ Comms are born, in massive numbers, not made “out there” ~ & ain’t going anywhere.

Comms is naked ape camo. Deception. Manipulation. Ghillie suit conformity hiding in plain sight.

Comms End is same misunderstanding (all benefit of doubt) as Fukuyama’s The End of History.

Dendrochronology, those spinning in place “knowledge” tree rings, also pulped into paper bound into books & darpanet looks coming back round again & again to say/do the same the same the same …sta(y a little while longer)sis - “no can do, bro, but fear not, we will meet again.”

And Bro, sighing in relief, can’t wait - but will, rooted, as trees are.

Tree/son doth never prosper, what's the reason? For if it prosper, none dare call it Tree/son.

John Harington

Not the prettiest poem, but there it is.

What a superb article. Even those of us living two continents away were nauseated and aghast by what we read (and saw on our trips there). Thank you Doug and Matt for publishing Paul’s article here for us to read.
