Indepndence Fucking Day

Like so many of our over-privileged brethren, Bike Smut takes to the streets today expressing some of the more iconic values that have come to represent us.




Its violent consumption/explosion day! 
aka Binge-n-Purge Red, White and pYouke

On this day of epic BBQ and phosphorus our carnage and rendering of flesh is only stalled by our need to abbreviate the land we claim as our own (the entirety of the Western Hemisphere).


The growing focus of any relevant topic quickly becomes reduced to tabloid-style personal drama. For example the recently the focus on former NSA employee,  Snowden's love life rather than the "treason" of telling the American people how the government agency he was working for was violating our constitutional rights. Ashton Kutcher may have said "Dude, where is my car?" but in reality he was saying, "Dude, where is my attention span?"

And although we think of ourselves as a fiercely independent (and yet loyal?) "army of one" it is common that we are much more fiercely concerned with how we are perceived by others. This backlash from the busybody nature of our society, plus the fear-mongering daily news, has resulted in people in the US being more fearful of our neighbors than ever.
 So on this day of unparallelled freedom of expression we are left assuming the continual erosion of our constitutional rights will follow leading eventually to the entire breakdown of the government into a collection feudal city-states.

Some say write letters to your representative.
Some say buy guns and Booze.
Both are fine ways to comfort yourself.
We say, meet your neighbors and organize locally. You may find the results to be more fulfilling.
