Acquiescence Replaces Apathy As Great British Way of Life

I have always been quite angry about those who sit back and do nothing about injustice to others, and frustrated by those not fighting against injustice being metered out to themselves.

I am also one of those who has no time for the attitude that to protest and demonstrate changes nothing, and that to complain is a fruitless exercise.

I have no time for people who whinge and whine and moan but do ef all about their situation, refuse to take advice and to fight back, but seek out sympathy from anyone within earshot, at home, in bus queues, in the pub, on the train, and most of all hidden away in the staff toilets at work.

The reality is that such people simply allow the bullies, the sloppy management culture, the unprincipled, the brain dead and down right lazy to get away with creating a country where the motto is "Why do it properly when you can fuck it up!"

We should check out the Latin for that and then have it emblazoned across our national flag!

But far worse than the whingeing whining and moaning whilst not fighting back against the bullies, the laziness and sloppiness of management of workplaces and services in this country; the new way of dealing with injustice in this great nation of ours has simply become the replacement of apathy with acquiescence as the British way of life!

No more exemplified is this phenomena than when it comes to political issues.

Everywhere you go you can hear the absolute silence from the voice of the people talking about the government's attack on the elderly, the poor, the unemployed, the disabled, teenagers, the sick and the working class.

I have discovered in fact, that no one actually lives in the real world of UK 2011, but instead resides in the safe world of dumbed down TV, celebrity mags, fashion, cosmetic surgery, TV soaps and idle negative gossip.

They actually reside inside a bubble of a planet called 'Fucks Biz', otherwise known as 'the land of make believe'!

Now this would be funny if it were not for the fact that some 60 million people will, at some point, be transported from Fucks Biz back into reality and suddenly be stunned into realising that their acquiescence has brought them mass unemployment, a low wage economy, food banks, privatised health care run by American and other foreign companies, no employment rights, no health & safety protection at work and subsequent higher death and injury rates, minimal education, no retirement and worst of all; a lifetime of total and abject misery unless you are rich and well connected.

Tell me now, is it worth living on the planet of make believe?
