I love this kind of stuff. I call it "Armageddon Poetry." Here's another. I wrote an A+ term paper back in high school English Lit analyzing The Tyger as a veiled reference to "The Revolutionary."
The Tyger
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare sieze the fire?
And what shoulder, & what art.
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? & what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
- William Blake

Wearing a mask with your nose sticking out is like wearing a condom on your testicles.
When out walking, look out for PROBlems. You know: maskless Plague Rats On Bicycles who blow past you without giving you time to get out of the way.
Ah, CONServatives, the Masters of Projection (MOPs). With CONServatives, every accusation is a confession. Weird, that.
............Oh, what fresh hell is this?

Darwin had nothing to do with it.
It was an attempt to apply an evolutionary biological construct to sociology and politics.
Hitler loved the idea of Social Darwinism..

On the outside, trickling down on the Insiders
We won't live free until the Democrats, and their voters, live in fear.
I assume you meant "reverse"? Sounds like punctuated equilibrium to me. Steady accumulation of medically treated defects that permit "breeding survival" followed by a sudden cull where the "defectives" (good Orwellian term, that) are suddenly drowned in the breeding pool.
But as Paul Harvey would say, the REST of the story is that all that progress where We Long Suffering Supermen had to drag along and coddle the Poors, has now culminated in being able to actually MODIFY those genetic errors, and in fact create superior human beings, possibly even superior to We Long Suffering Supermen.
Not quite sure what you mean by "producers" and "non producers." That sounds a little derpy-talking-point-memo-dog-whistle-tooly to me, and I've assumed from reading many of your prior posts that you were a bit more... independent and aware that that.

Regardless of how funny it is, "Idiocracy" is not real life.
And, again, "producers" and "non producers" are huge dog whistles.
Finally, "producers" and "non producers" simply does not address the fact that - much sooner than you think - the majority of people in the country and the world will be "non producers" simply by the fact that machines are doing the work they used to do.
