I've been at most reboots, the last one I attended was reboot 9.

By now I feel it's too late for more BS talk, hyping of "new" wonder-products, and restless chasing of the next profit opportunity. No more Emperor's New Clothes.

We must stop now. Growth is no way forward. So called Consumer Goods are not "good", they're bad as hell. Decrease, and even deflation isn't a bad thing - only for corporations and banks. But who gives a fuck about corporations or banks, honestly? We need a better world, not more of the same shit those parties put us in.

We need to shrink. Shrink our global impact, shrink our bloody over consumption, shrink our winner takes all mentality, shrink our dependence on money and material goods, shrink our fear of fellow human beings, and shrink our trust in the leaders of this world who only prove time and time again that they're all hot air and no action.

I have stopped. I have stepped down. I am waiting for you. The world is waiting. It's your turn to change now. No more talk. Change. For the better.

You know what to do: We all have a heart - don't let anyone tell you what to do, and don't trust the media or the commercials. And don't buy anything advertised, be it products, services, or political ideas. Peace and love can't be bought, or won in war.

Moreover, this is about survival now. Not only your personal survival, but the survival of all of us. Every living human being and eery animal and every plant on this planet is under threat. From us.

You have been lied to for years. Don't listen anymore. Throw out your TV set, stop reading those centralized papers who all say the same, seek real information while you still can. Censorship is coming fast now, you have limited time.

This is serious. It's life and death. Literally. Stop, and change. Not tomorrow, not in an hour. Now.

We don't need profit, we need drinkable water. We don't need GDP growth, we need peace. We don't need pollution, we need love and compassion.

There are lies, and propaganda. All the crap the media, politicians, and ads tell you is utter bullshit - it's out of touch with reality. Use your head, don't ever believe the hype.

If you make a lie big enough people will not dare question it. It's the Emperors New Clothes.

The truth is still out there, but there's so much identical mass-produced so-called "journalism" that it's getting harder to find it each day. And, as stated above; censorship is coming fast.

Don't give up. Seek and you will find. For sure - you may not initially believe things that go counter to 100.000 identical news stories, but sometimes the small voice is the right one.

Obama does not bring change. That would be foolish to believe. He's p0wned no matter how smart he looks in papers and TV. It's just a job, and he has it. He's just the current guy, nothing more.

We can't afford to trust politicians with ignorant 50years plans like in the old USSR. We're running out of time. We must succeed in changing this world now. Today. Not tomorrow. Leaving it to our kids will be too late. We are the people we've been waiting for.

So, ask yourself: Who do you really work for? With every single action that you do, what interests does that action promote? Are you honestly making this planet a better place for all, or are you destroying it? Remember, what you may think of as "Status Quo" is actually constant destruction of the globe we live on.

I am waiting for you. The world is waiting for you. Come on out of the rat race. Stop being a consumer. Enter the human race. Start being a caretaker. But please hurry, as time is damn much shorter than you think. Act today, not tomorrow, even small steps count, just act.

Don't fear. Your heart will lead you. Insist on doing the right thing, even if it conflicts with responsibility, job, whatever. Trust your heart. Even if it's unusual to do so - we know exactly where "the usual" will lead us, and we don't want to go there.

I've taken the first steps, and I'll keep going. Now it's your turn to start. Not tomorrow. Not in an hour. Now. The next ting you do, is it GOOD or BAD? Does it help mankind survive or does it kill us all faster? Do you promote hate/fear or peace/love? Pollution or sustainability? Think. Feel. Make an honest choice. Act.

Above all else, act. Do something, don't just think or talk.

Be good. Be the change you're waiting for.

You will not find me at reboot this year.
