Rome sees some bloke from the London School of Economics on the telly while he’s flicking through the channels. This chap makes the point that governments don’t actually do anything for us. The only thing that makes them boss is that they control all the currency. Historically, anyone proposing an alternative to cash is brutally suppressed, but then historically they haven’t got the Internet, which makes such things much easier to set up; much harder to crack down on.

The authoritarian system we live under is set to benefit a tiny minority — an all-powerful elite gets obscenely rich, while billions are cheated out of realizing their true potential. But the system is rotten. It’s ripe for collapse. It’s the duty of every revolutionary — everyone of us — to hasten that collapse… It’s not a crime to fight injustice… The system’s conditioned us — hypnotized nearly everybody into accepting that life has to be the way it is. We’re hypnotized into believing war is natural — famine is natural — crime is natural… but they’re not. They’re products of the system and its all-consuming greed! People have become robots — zombies — too busy scrambling for day-to-day existence to be able to see they’re really victims. It’s up to us to open their eyes. From cradle to grave, we’re taught — indoctrinated! — that happiness depends on always getting more. Buy — throw away — buy more! Doesn’t matter if we destroy the planet on the way! Politicians say they can fix the world’s problems. Just give them more power. Religions say do more of what they order and you’ll be happy — but only after you’re dead! They’ve been making the same hollow promises for thousands of years, and we, the people — the sheep — have listened. But it’s time to wake up and smell the coffee — the days of external authority and force-backed power are numbered… that’s the way the system is set up! A sham democracy that acts as a front for the elite’s ambitions… It doesn’t have to be like that. We can change it!
