    The Four Fuckeries

    I found this a good read I like his writing style...

    " I doubt there is another era in the history of Western Civ when the forces in-motion acting on society were so mystifying to those acted upon. And isn’t it especially galling that this is so in an age after rational scientific practice had decoded so many of nature’s secrets? Did that project somehow fail in the end? Has the Enlightenment been defeated? How have we become trapped like frogs being boiled haplessly in our own pond-water?"

    "I have reduced these forces to four obvious streams of the sheerest seemingly evil fuckery, which is to say nefariously managed events meant to harm us. They are surely all related in some way. Let’s try to de-mystify them to understand what we’re up against."

    Interesting rant.

    One filled with a combination of one-sided politics, innuendo without endorsement - a nice get out that one, and relatable truths.

    But quite an enjoyable fictional read that passed a few minutes.

    I've been reading Kunstler for years - he's usually on point, and always entertaining.
