Newsfucked.

By dzentrum | Dzentrum_Blog | 27 Mar 2020


This situation is starting to go on my nerves, the whole thing should just go and fuck off. Today I woke up early, the weather is already springlike, the birds are singing and it is going to be a warm day. I took some time to realize, that  the situation is still sticking on, the news blaring like made virus this virus that, they are having a field day now that there is blood in the streets.

Can we find an adult way back to life? I will do it anyway.

Fear is a bitch, because everyone has some fear. This is the perfect vehicle to get people into obediency.

Now we have a perfect storm, because there is a virus is tearing through humanity. This is perfect in many ways, because it could be potentially everywhere and in everyone and we can not see it. So our imagination can run wild on this one.

Politics are having a great time riding this topic, making themselves very important, and the people are glued to their lips, listening to every word. They are once again important, as they stand on this pile off rubble expressing their concern for their people and giving out condolences, while they set about to do away with the last bit of democracy left.

I nearly puked, when I saw Mister Macron declare a national lockdown and even forbidding the consumption of alcohol. He must have had an erection during the speech.

TV-Stations and Newspapers can ride the wave to. They usually are alarmist and late, news is not news, it is alarmist, late and usually the propaganda tool of the state. Lets change the name  „the news“ to „the lates“, because that is what it is.

OK, I see it, there is an emergency otherwise China would not have gone to such lengths to shut down their economy. Maybe I am just impatient, because the disruption is starting to take a toll on me (even though I am not even locked in and I dont live in one of the locked down areas. So I have the luxury to talk like this. I get it.)

Maybe this whole thing needs to happen, to show the current system for what it is, to show its weaknesses, how it is totally defunct to even deal with the smallest of problems arising. It certainly is not antifragile.

Maybe that is why we need this.

On a personal level I take this as the ultimate incentive, to ramp up my personal effort, to be all I can be, to bootcamp myself like never before and go hard on the Dumbells, the Barbells and the Kettlebell. Because this standstill and this Pandemic is such a great excuse I refuse to use it to be lazy.

I am going to use this as a stepping stone to push through and to let go of fear for once and all. This is the time.

Fear is the lube on the slippery slope to hell.

 

Stay healthy, stay sane, and be all You can ever be.
