I’ve long wondered how the Koch Brothers and the suckers
they attract[1]
could remain so rigorously true to their own self-interest, in the face of
mounting evidence that they’re destroying the very planet on which we all
live. Enlightenment came when I learned that the Kochs hang out and hold job
interviews for their political lackeys in Palm Springs, California.
Palm Springs is built on and around Sec-he, a hot mineral spring and settlement of the Cahuilla
Tribe. In Cahuilla tradition, a powerful
spirit named Tahquitz lives in an
obsidian cave high in the mountains that tower above Sec-he. Tahquitz come out
now and then in the form of a blue light or comet and – consumes people’s
souls!
So there we have it.
The Kochs are soul-free creatures possessed by Tahquitz,
and so, quite likely, are their suckers.
They are zombie-like beings who cannot really be held accountable for
their actions and beliefs.
How we account for Tahquitz’
own motivations is a trickier problem, requiring more study.
