Wronguns Meme Collection - Please don't read any further if you are easily distressed
Why is it that Hollywood, among other sources of mass media, always tells us that good always wins? It seems pretty clear that evil always wins and good survives only because it is temporarily beneath notice. The Doomsday Clock has recently reached two and a half minutes to midnight and represents the world's proximity to mutual nuclear destruction. Midnight is when our nuclear hubris theoretically catches up to us. Our proximity to midnight has never been closer than it is today. Whatever we're doing, we're getting it badly wrong. It's almost as if we are expecting to get a different result from doing the same things over and over. Someone clever once said that was madness.
The threat of nuclear war is one thing, but what about the threat posed by the antiquated domestic nuclear power plants all over the planet? Chernobyl is quite a big issue, Fukushima even bigger and with the damage growing daily, unquantifiable in scope. How many more will go wrong?
It's not just nuclear power that is infected with our hubris, war, weapons, genetic modification of organisms, pollution, AI, environmental destruction and who knows what else? The people who are caught up in all this arrogant, wanton destruction will never get redress. The children of the past, present and future have and will continue to die from the consequences.
The people who run the planet worship power and they wield it without restraint or reason. The institutions that create the facade of respectability are crumbling before our eyes. Trust, the stuff that enables societies to function, is going or gone. It does not readily come back.
What is the solution? Decentralised power, communications networks and money. Draining the money from out of the hands of the psychopaths and transitioning to more robust societal structures that are resistant to corruption. That is the only way. It is not easily accomplished but at least there is hope.
I hope you enjoy the memes...
Happy Steeming
It is all about monies making
Ka Ching!!!
Yes sireee! That does appear to be what it's predominantly about. How desperately nearsighted! ;)
The bankers don't cares
Waiting for apocalypse, as usually...
Lol! Where on Earth does one get an elephant seal outfit?!
It is Homunculus Loxodontus , not an elephant
The most popular meme in Russia now. Something like "I tapped some button and all disappeared"
Ahhh I stand corrected. Very good if I understand the context correctly.
It's universal
Interesting post!
Thankyou
@benjojo, you made some awesome memes here my friend. The vaccine meme hits me hard because my boys aren't vaccinated. Whenever the subject comes up, I'm terrified. Big pharma, the lawmakers and the CDC can shove all the vaccines up their asses. I would like the governor of California to drink a full glass of these harmless vaccines.
Thank you for helping me not feel so alone with your memes. Steem On Dude!
Thank you buddy. Never think you are alone! Never.
Great collection of memes!
Thanks very much

The Obama one was the funniest and it did made me chuckle quite a bit even though it's a sad state of affair that most people don't realize Obama wasn't working for the people.
Thank you teamsteem. We only need a relatively small percentage of people to be aware of the truth in order to galvanise the power for great change. I think it's only 3%. That's still a lot of people but far from impossible. Imagine if we could get 3% of people using Steem and it's apps!
Too often do I forgot that point.
