Shannon Larratt is Zentastic

So while a couple people have sent me messages of support, the overwhelming response from people watching the videos is anything from the light “how dare I try and make this war appear wrong” to accusing me of being a terrorist sympathiser and even a war criminal. I hate watching all this. War justified by lies, with a bunch of morons cheering it on blindly.

I don't know how many times I've heard bullshit like “but Iraq executes POWs” (a statement the UK has retracted) or “but Saddam gassed his neighbors” (he gassed who everyone thought were a terrorist camp, with US weapons, under US direction), and other total crap like how this will free the people of Iraq in some way. Any decently informed person knows this to be false.

I have come to the conclusion that this war and this President are supported by two forces: 1. The extremely stupid and uninformed. 2. The extremely evil and selfish. So… Which are you? Stupid? Evil? Or against war and killing? If you fall into the first two categories, you're a pathetic excuse for a compassionate human being and I hope one day — soon I hope — you realize what you've wrought.

If I didn't believe killing was wrong, I'd be wishing you death right now.

This all is making me seriously reconsider the work I put into this site and other community projects. Why should I try and improve the lives of people who support murder and commercialized butchery? Does that not put blood on my own hands, to give comfort to you demons? Or should I set up the system to only offer new features to those of an anti-killing stance? It wouldn't be hard to do.

I feel like I should just refocus myself on subverting “the system” and making as much money as possible, and then using that to create a homeland, a sanctuary for those of us here who are unwilling to be a part of this evil, to live in peace. A place were we can farm. A place where we can express what we believe is good through art and gardening and just refuse to take part in all of this.

(And yes, that project is still alive and well for those that have followed it over the last few years).

I don't know if that would make me happy. But I think it would make me happier. Those that choose to join me are welcome, as long as they help with tend the gardens… There are better ways to live. The question I suppose is whether we choose them.
