Speaking of fascists and fossil fuels, my son just turned me on to this spoken word by John Trudell...

...
Arms race, jackboots pounding earth, military precision
Dissecting elements of life
Taking apart instead of healing
Generals and gods
Fascists and oil wells
Man images, and machines
Petrochemical societies trying to hide the sun
Jackboots pounding earth, creaking leather boots
Dead cows crying in a world turned to a planetary slaughterhouse...

John Trudell, Tribal Voice, "Voices Catching Up/Lompoc Song" (1983)
