E-Gypped; Moo-Barrack and the Twitter Revolution

With the faint batteries drained sleeping outside in Alaska the Egyptian Twitter-revolution resembled a sort-of Super Bowl of Politics. It conconveniently fell into the break in football and baseball that leaves only basketball to listen to. Control of the main square of Cairo and political analysis of what that all means, Anderson Cooper being punched-these reports overshadowed the lead up to the superbowl best known for cheating 1200 fans out of tickets and giving them a paltry 300% mark up on the face price in compensation-nothing abouot free tickets for next year's game.

Gaming on the Internet and gaming in politics have some similarities for planners, yet of course in reality actual injuries and loss of property occurs that are irreversable. One hopes that politicans would be more intelligent and work better to plan for the real public good and not let things get out of hand, yet...

Twitter, Facebook and the democratization of e-media communications have sent up the first wave of e-populism’s potential revolutions to Egypt and elsewhere. Leftist tend to accentuate leftist revolutions of history, yet rightist revolutions occur too with different commentary treatment post hoc. In Egypt an instant populist revolution without roots appeared to knock down the straw man President Hosni Mubarak-yet so far he is still in office. One wonders if twitter revolutionaries need more education in classical revolutionary planning or economic.

If President Obama supplied any leadership, it has not surfaced. The President’s atheist, homosexual agenda for a global corporatist empire may touch upon the North African shore in an effort to fan the flames of twittendom across the Red Sea and upward to Iran. The receptivity of Africa and the Middle East to an encroaching militant, homosexual atheist Weimarization of politics possible in 3rd world strife may support collective authoritarianism of ignorance or evil elites-that’s difficult to anticipate from the outside.

The revolution could be a shill for global concentration of wealth and the corporatist agenda at any rate, as we regard President Obama himself.

Egypt’s problems with neo-revolutionary sentiment might develop within similar historical parameters as an upsurge of class consciousness (twittish organizers) stimulates public action by loosely organized mobs.

We might view the globalization of networks, raves and youth Facebook consciousness as another entry of the dragon of change into the playbook of political tools for power. President Obama’s 2009 Cairo speech may have set the match to local Egyptian political will to revolutionary power. In declaring his name; Barak Hussein Obama during the speech, gave a latent, subtle tone denouncing the inimical moo-barack. He may be perceived as throwing down a gauntlet to youth expected to run with the bone of support. President Obama would not tolerate a bovine antipodal mockery in the name of a foreign leader in this public relations age. President Mubarak may have unintentionally born the inimical name, yet he is not guiltless as a neo-dictocrat persecuting some of his countrypersons. When he leaves office he deserves to have his own modest retirement ranch in the Australian desert. Globalism presents many faces of change and subterfuge with levels of stygian construction.

E-gypt is said to lack political parties to field candidates in the September Presidential election. The U.S.A. also lacks at least candor in political party names. Honest names for parties for youth, the rich, homosexuals, women, non-white and so etc. Honest names should not trick voters or reinforce broadcast media dissimulation and support for concentrating wealth.

People want power and prosperity and freedom and not to be publicly twitted by adversaries, tortured or killed; the questions of contention are about how the power is allocate as well as of the best way of producing wealth for all and saving ecological health.
