We don’t want your American dream!

We don’t want your dream, we want ours.  Don’t enforce your dream on us or we will fight you away!


Let’s be frank.  It is your American dream we don’t want,
- we want everyone’s different and self defined dream, the ones you can not sell to us
We don’t want a huge house full of automation,
- we want a little home full of rational simplicity
We don’t want a huge car on a huge highway, over huge bridges and tunnels, for hundreds of miles every day,
- we want simple clean transportation to the few places close by and once in a long while to visit some faraway place of interest, even if it takes too long to get there.
We don’t want huge dams and pipelines, artificial reservoirs, and chemical treatment plants
- we want clean local water from natural resources
We don’t want mass produced industrial food
- we want to locally grow clean, sustainable, organic, authentic, fresh food
We don’t want machines made out of strange dangerous metals from deep inside earth and billions of tons of toxic waste pumped through the fields around your mines,
- we want simple machines made of already plentiful recyclable materials that would last for generations

We don’t want centrally controlled and directed lifestyles of commercial activity,
- we want the variety and colorful lifestyles oriented and self-directed at each community with no commercial intervention and of no-commercial value to you
We don’t want mass produced entertainment funneled through cable, or huge multi-theaters, or gigantic concerts,
- we want our self organized group expression and art-exchange where artists and audience can have direct human relations with
We don’t want huge universities to produce obedient puppets for organizations that reproduce your madness,
- we want self organized schools where teachers and students are one and the same and direct their learning to meet their own specific needs and inquiry
We don’t want to conquer the world, the earth, and the lifeforms on it,
- we want to live with respect to the land and its life in a way where we can survive while doing the least possible damage and have the least impact and intervention on the eco-system
We are not in a hurry,
- there is so much to experience by moving slow and paying attention to the details around us that we would miss when we are forced to move so damn fast past the trees and the bees and the ants and the drops from the pedals
We don’t want all those drugs you are pumping on us to have absolute control of us,
- there is so much beauty on earth it can make you dizzy, there is so much oxygen, so many smells, so many natural treats, that your coke,crack,meth,PCP,speed,power drinks, industrial buzz, would only prevent the experience of reality
We don’t want the dependency on your products and systems,
- we are fed up with it, we have shelter, we have food, we have water, we have air, we have plenty of land, and we now also have the knowledge for autonomy and independence
And we don’t want to have this discussion with you anymore,
- just go to hell and never come back!


Did you hear it?
It is the sound of your world crumbling, It is the sound of our world surfacing
