THE SECOND AMERICAN REVOLUTION <strong>and</strong> THE<br />

CYBER-EXODUS<br />

Why Conservatives, Liberals <strong>and</strong> Greens are equally wrong<br />

Have you ever noticed how political, scientific, religious <strong>and</strong> virtually all social systems<br />

evolve <strong>and</strong> eventually degrade in <strong>the</strong> same way? They start as original concepts but are<br />

eventually corrupted by newer "truths." From here <strong>the</strong> once solid valid idea is integrated,<br />

discarded or clung to. Ideally more valid truths will be welcome <strong>and</strong> old ideas will be<br />

integrated or discarded. It is <strong>the</strong> habit of clinging to lesser <strong>and</strong> out-dated truths that<br />

causes conflict in this world. The end state of any given social system is indefinite<br />

reformation if it clings to its original ideas, effectively destroying <strong>the</strong> original value.<br />

Sometimes evolution never occurs; good old ideas are discarded too quickly <strong>and</strong> new<br />

good ideas are unable to integrate. While <strong>the</strong> bottom line <strong>and</strong> egos are <strong>the</strong> usual suspects<br />

in <strong>the</strong> degradation phase of evolution, this is taken for granted <strong>and</strong> beside <strong>the</strong> point.<br />

Most of what exists today as our institutions are merely <strong>the</strong> modern faces of what was;<br />

what is "new" is merely a response to <strong>the</strong> old <strong>and</strong> not an original. Like a 50th generation<br />

Xerox, when we cling to something that needn't be repeated, <strong>the</strong> solid image is corrupted<br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> flaws are integrated – <strong>the</strong> opposite of ideal. Christianity is <strong>the</strong> perfect example:<br />

<strong>the</strong> lessons of one man have been splintered into literally hundreds of sects, each<br />

convinced it is more valid than <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs or original. This is not an opinion; it is fact by<br />

virtue of <strong>the</strong>ir existence.<br />

In regards to <strong>the</strong> political history of <strong>the</strong> USA, <strong>the</strong>re has been a similar effect in how many<br />

parties have cropped up. Let's assume no one party could suit <strong>the</strong> needs of all Americans<br />

for all time. That’s reasonable, but let’s also assume one party could conceivably be more<br />

"right" than all o<strong>the</strong>rs at any one time. How do we reach a consensus? By what criteria<br />

can this ideal party be judged? Who will say, "I don't agree with that party but I know<br />

<strong>the</strong>y have an ultimately better effect for me, my gr<strong>and</strong>children <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> planet as a<br />

whole?" Whose fate is <strong>the</strong> deciding factor governing this moral relativism?<br />

Who is asleep in <strong>the</strong>ir denial of nature? Who is overzealous about protecting nature?<br />

The most basic aspect to this scale invariant pathology of conflict is <strong>the</strong> natural survival<br />

instinct. Greens, a newer party, see <strong>the</strong> degradation of <strong>the</strong> biosphere as a threat to <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

survival <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>y can point <strong>the</strong> finger at <strong>the</strong> blatantly guilty "Republicrats" who all too<br />

gladly bend over for industry. The Republicrats are generally comprised of a relatively<br />

wealthier <strong>and</strong> isolated class. Their connection to <strong>the</strong> earth is absent <strong>and</strong> so <strong>the</strong>ir survival<br />

instinct is warped into arms races, tax breaks, <strong>and</strong> mud slinging. They cannot counter <strong>the</strong><br />

Green platform except by saying Greens are unprepared to deal with <strong>the</strong> problems<br />

bipartisan dominance has created. It's sad how a common survival instinct manifests as<br />

destructive politics.<br />

Unfortunately, <strong>the</strong> Green platform is spread so thin as to be ineffectual. All <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r third<br />

parties are so specific <strong>the</strong>y fail as well. When Greens look at <strong>the</strong> two major parties <strong>and</strong>
