Making America Grungy Again

AnthroCentrism grows from globally rabid nihilism. As cynicism grows from anthropocentric roots As narcissism grows from cynical Lose/Lose trampling our Win/Win EarthTribe opportunities in over-marching, uneconomically smart unecologically naive anti-ego/ecosystemic, stomping bully boots. What the USSR Military-Terrorist Party learned the hard way, their Russian mafia metamorphosis has learned a simpler continuing kleptocratic way: When plundering and raping your own people and Earth's international climate of active nutritional hope, it is easier and less transparent to not have the unfortunate responsibilities of actual factual RealTalk and RealWalk governing service provision Like developing robust health and climate care systems and building safe railroads and bike paths and viable water and sewer systems and healthy soil and potable water supplies and breathable air and not quite so yang-fired up win/lose competitive capital hoarding among just-us AnthroCentric plutocrats. Would that Apprentice Donald had stayed private mafia likewise rather than fiddling and twittering extracting and walling making America grungy again.
