Australian Apocalypse



While newscasters blabber about homes destroyed in the Australian fires, I have been wondering about the animals. Of course, not a word about them in our anthropocentric news, until today:

Up to 500 million mammals, birds and reptiles – including 8,000 koalas – have been killed, say ecologists from Sydney University, prompting fears entire species of animals and plant life may be lost for ever. More than 300 baby flying foxes have been abandoned by their mothers trying to survive, experts said. Jenny Packwood, a wildlife rescuer, told The Herald: “Mothers are abandoning babies at two weeks after birth because there is no food for them. Last week we had 300 come in, and we’ve been flat out feeding since then. “I’ve never seen anything like this before – we’re calling it a starvation event.” “There’s no grass for the ’roos, no insects for the birds, the leaves on eucalypts are brittle, ensuring starvation for koalas, gliders, possums, birds, insects.”

THIS is a true holocaust -- a real fire of apocalyptic proportions. “Five hundred million” -- the number is almost unfathomable. It is an ecocidal wipe-out of a continents innocent wildlife... beautiful creatures all of them who never deserved this fate.

I could give a shit for the humans rushing for safety to the ocean... the ocean whose dead sea corral they killed with their avarice and indifference. May the sea break out in flames. I have no pity for them. None. Zip.

The Greens have called for a Parliamentary commission to look into the Government's handling of the climate crisis. What candy assed bullshit. Morrison and his gang of industry pimps and thugs should be lined up against a wall and shot. Better yet, they should be forced to walk into the flames at gunpoint. All of them....

But the average “decent, hard working, hard playing Australian” is no better. While a holocaust consumes his homeland and wipes out its wild-life, what are they doing? Watching fireworks in Sydney. The drooling, stupid, indifference is as criminal as the Government's ecocidal avarice.


The human race is a complete, utter, disastrous failure. A mistake as colossal as Creation itself. We deserve to be wiped out. The tragedy is that before we are, everything else will be wiped out first.
