What man feels as his inescapable guilt is preventing his enjoyment of being.
About Time! yell Media
Yes, given that the media can only purvey what it
somehow imagines people want to see and hear, the
people have to allow themselves to be gaplessly
convinced that it is in fact what they want to see and
hear, even though 99% of it is quite obviously trash,
lies and waste of materials. (Is that a portrait of 'the
Consumer'?) Anyway, they apparently have all left it
up to Fud, the Newspaper from Nowhere, to 'tell it
like it is,' - if that's at all possible. Few readers can
have any idea of just what an enormous and difficult
task this is. In fact, we venture our opinion that it's
most probably a superhuman task.
Take the ghastly record of history as your guide: the centuries, the millenia of compacted ignorance that have been necessary to produce the incredibly high standard of human being---ourself, no less---that we have strutting about all over the planet today.
Now what does this latest and greatest development of the dinosaur know or care about anything that is not straightforward self-indulgence? And quite right, for what is life except self-indulgence? If you're lucky! Isn't that what it's all about, once you've got the problem of survival sorted? Of course it is.So What's for Sale?
Nothing at all. No
profit will go to the producers of
Fud because they simply don't
deserve any for writing stuff like
this. But almost anyone with the
gift of literacy in the present
language should be able to read
and enjoy this wee Newspaper
because it says so much that all
the others don't.
Actually, Fud is an information exchange that goes far beyond the smug propaganda and inanities of State radio and TV. The fact is that mankind urgently needs to undergo radical change in its entire pattern. The big question is how can this come about? The Great Meteorite Hope is no good,because it would be too quick for anyone to appreciate the results satisfactorily, even though it might solve the problem definitively.

The trouble with emotionality is that you are always on the horns of a dilemma.
