A 3D rendering Inspired by William Gibson’s Neuromancer book cover designed by Josan Gonzalez (Rafael Moco).
On a bright pink background, it shows the shoulders and head of a white skinned man with a stubble on his chin and a cigarette in his mouth.
The rest of his head is encased in a metallic helmet with yellow lights coming out of the eyes area, out of almost runic openings. Countless cables and wires emerge from the top part of the device, fanning outside of the frame.

#BlaineHiggs thinks #NewBrunswick is a game he plays where the object is to do as many favours for his former employer & #oligarch pals while making life as impossible and dangerous for everyone else.

This man thinks he is legitimately doing great things because of some numbers on some pages he looks at instead of opening a window or stepping into the real New Brunswick that he has decimated.

Until we actually deal with the conservative elite who endlessly pillage the public purse while engaging in the eternal divide and conquer tactic we're never going to get out of this hole. They have been at it for centuries not decades or just since the last shitty period in our lives. Casting someone as 'the enemy' when in fact THEY are the enemy is the oldest psy-op in the book.

Individuals within a society that work hard to encourage hatred and blame towards any demographic will, inevitably, bring hatred and blame to their own demographic. People that divide others and put blame on groups due to individual actions will create the conditions of their own demise.

Everyone belongs to many different demographics, most people don't even realize this. Their country or ancestral country, current or past ethic background, their overreaching religion or sects and branches within that religion, level of education, age, medical conditions, financial status, blood type, postal code, hair colour, dominant hand....

It has been shown to happen over and over in history. Everyone that creates hate will get what they put out back at them. The tables will turn.

Not a big fan of #resist
It implies a token struggle against a preordained fate.
For example, one might "resist arrest" but be arrested just the same.

The creeping fascism in this country isn't "resisting" the left. They are no holds barred punching the left right in the throat.

So, go ahead and "resist" getting dragged by your hair to the gulag. I'll #FightBack, thanks.
