Exit

To @almaguer, a reply to his Rotten Meat

I recently came across the artwork on the photo and thought I’d share it with you. Strangely enough, my first thought was: I thought plastic wasn’t allowed anymore. You can’t fault the people using it if given to them, and they’ve done their best to put the rubbish in the bin, and even in a creative way.

Every now and then, people still look for a bit of fun, even if it’s nothing much. A little electric car drives round blowing soap bubbles into the air; there are picnic tables. Eating is becoming more and more of a pastime – what else are you supposed to do? They eat as if their lives depend on it. And yes, it does. No, there’s no place for fast-food restaurants like McDonald’s. They’re far too expensive. Who knows, maybe McDonald’s will soon give everyone who likes up for the next killing injection or other mRNA therapy a free meal. Some hamburger that makes nauseous and kills your appetite forever. That isn’t so difficult anymore, by the way, with DNA-manipulated fruit and veg.
Brussels isn’t taking it so seriously anymore when it comes to eating chemical and genetically modified rubbish. Recently, a girl committed suicide after eating a vegetarian meal. Nothing is healthy anymore; everything has consequences, and people just stand by and watch...
The few people left are becoming increasingly reclusive and disinterested. When hand grenades are cheaper than fireworks and a loaf of bread, the choice is made easier, especially when this is the only protection you have left. Or is it to go down fighting civil wars?

Does it even matter what we do or say? There is no way in, and therefore no exit. There is no shelter, not for foreigners and certainly not for the local population. This is no longer necessary anyway, because the bodies are piling up... the ground is saturated with corpses, the cemeteries are full. The government knows what to do. No funerals, no cremations; that’s bad for the environment. Bodies can be used for research by medical students; disappear in some chemical solution, and who knows, perhaps they can even be turned into Epstein & Co. beef.

Bill Gates thinks it’s perfectly normal to make people feel sick from eating meat. I wonder if it’s just meat or all food. One in four people feels nauseous. That’s a high number and should raise questions, but when fear comes into play, all voices fall silent.

There is nothing beautiful left to experience; artists no longer create, and the few who might still be able to do so would keep their mouths shut and go with the flow. That has nothing to do with having no opinion or thinking that whatever is said shouldn’t be heard by anyone, but with being shrewd and trying to line one’s pockets. Being an artist has never been a lucrative profession. The wealthy artists aren’t the ones with talent, but those who are good at PR.

The number of people is dwindling, and very quickly. The figures are being kept under wraps, for those who know the truth might just rise up in revolt, and let’s be honest, the truth has many faces.
With no prospects in a world going up in smoke, even the sun hardly shows itself. The only thing left is to go to bed early or play dead like a.possum. With a bit of luck, there won’t be a coup de grâce. With more bad luck we are still alive at dawn and be enslaved.
