Big Med is
a recon, arms and resource center for those battling malignant corporate
power, at least those wise enough to explore Big Corporate Bodies as evolving living
systems, eco-social pathogens, and/or our morbid rivals for control of the world.
|
|
There are a
few surprisingly simple legal, political, even hormonal reasons why corporate
plagues are ravaging our world; why the soil, air and water are ever more toxic to life; why
more of our kind are poorer, sicker, and more fearful than any time in memory. We hold
the following truths to be self- evident.

OUR WORKING HYPOTHESES
Let us just suppose that Big Bodies:
 are real superorganisms that dominate, shape and synchronize their
members' lives and minds; control our education, science and media, and exploit
this power to
condition us to serve corporate ends; generate a monstrous share of the poison, pain and havoc
in the world; have overtaken humans as Earth's new dominant species
and
hijacked our evolutionary course; may yet be thwarted if the Magic 10% among us - the immune forces
of the body politic - wake up, and miniaturize- localize- democratize their
premises in time. |

We ask you
not to debate these assumptions, just briefly pretend they are true. If we
presume they are, what kind of contest would we face, what would we have to learn and
do?
Many see our
challenge as a "corporate coup d'etat," and talk legal and political. We fear
an even grimmer bio- evolutionary doom, and plot in militant medicalese.
Big Med thus
offers the following aid:
Diagnostic - facts that illuminate the singular
corporatist cause behind most eco-
social ills.
Remedial - broad- spectrum tactics to
boost popular resistance locally and wither
Big Bodies globally.
Prognostic - self- fulfilling prescriptions
for a spirited, sensual post- corporate world.
We seek wise
and witty contributions in any of these fields, particularly those that
strengthen everyone's hand to belittle BIG's rampant power. In sum, we ask your aid in
chronicling and quickening the coming Big Devolution. Grand surprises await once you
start to think BIG.
