CZM Book Club: Cool Zone 2055: How to Survive (the Dino Wars)

twenty fifty five. War doesn't rhyme with five. That's why we're bringing you Cool Zone twenty fifty five How to Survive the Dinoh Wars. Anyway, here's a missive from the future. Hello, and welcome to Cool Zone twenty fifty five. How to Survive the Dinoh Wars. It's another beautiful year in the climate apocalypse civil War. I figure for a while at least, we'll focus on tips and tricks for how to get through the year and how to get through the war.

Talk to frontline fighters and backline fighters and people just trying to get through all of this. Today, though, we're just gonna run through some headline news to give us a sense of where we're at here. At the start of twenty fifty five, it has been a busy couple of weeks, and then we've got a special report on Singapore and on supply chain logistics from our own Meal Wong. So if you're sick of here and me, you should

stick around or fast forward. You can probably fast forward, but you should stick around because I'm going to read you the news.

of baby dinosaurs sledding, you're missing out. The center left, revolutionarily aligned New People's Liberation Force of Louisiana announced today that they've taken control of Baton Rouge, driving out the independent warlord Don Raptor, who had gone from the showy proprietor of the Dino Zoo Don's Wild Pets to becoming dictator one of the most climate ravaged parts of North America.

Don's fate is unknown at this time. This new expansion of territory marks the first time that the NPLFL has extended their control past the city of New Orleans, and of course is likely to cause backlash from the Christian nationalist group the Louisiana People's Force for Democracy and Freedom. But it's still a cause for celebration. It's always a cause for celebration when people succeed at doing good stuff,

even if there's always an inevitable backlash. The Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, John Harold Chris James, announced today at a press conference that Canada is now revoking the residency permits of all citizens of the former United States who were granted residency in exchange for building the wall along its southern border. Now that the wall is ninety percent completed,

basically they're done with us. Chris James said that the residency program, officially called the turn your backs on your shitty country to join our Grade one program, was a remnant of quote World War III and a moment of sheer desperation by our great country, and that all Americans should get the fuck out and fix their own country.

It was, of course a statement from the deputing Prime Minister of Canada, because the Prime Minister of Canada, the right wing former twitch streaming star Maximus Rome Smith, has not made a public appearance in two years, and that analysis of all publicly available material from him appears likely to be deep fakes scripted by Chris James working with old fashioned chat GPT style AAI, so no one knows where Maximus is. Normally I'd say good riddance, but Chris

James not any better. The Democratic con Federalist Congress of Africa celebrated their fifteenth anniversary today across the large chunks of the continent. Fifteen years ago they were a dream put together by a combination of Pan Africanists and internationalists. Now they control about eighty percent of the continent in the spirit of ethnic pluralism, cooperative economics and decision making structures and justice systems that serve as a model to

the world. Despite living in one of the most climate change ravaged continents on the planet, fighting continues against the white nationalist forces that control South Africa and against Islamic forces along the northeast coast of the continent. This Apetees to Army for National Liberation celebrated sixty one years since they walked onto the world stage with an armed uprising.

They did this celebration by holding it in Quantro, a meeting of internationalists who have supported them all these years. The Easy ln followed by the Rushavian Revolution, are seen by many as the two most important precursors to the modern internationalist movement, and representatives for more than six thousand revolutionary projects attended. This year's in Quantro celebrations were marred by a terrorist attack from right wing forces that killed

seven and wounded thirty four. And while we're at it with death tolls, last week there were an estimated twenty three thousand internationalist soldiers killed around the world. Reanimation camps run by nationalist forces in Russia and the United States killed an estimated forty thousand pe, most of whom were ethnic minorities and or the disabled. It is likely that another six thousand people were killed by heat in the

Southern hemisphere. As another Hellmouth summer has begun and two hundred thousand people starve to death worldwide, we remember and celebrate the lives of everyone who has died in this struggle. We will fight until no one starves to death, until no one is locked by national borders into a territory struggling with the climate crisis, until no one is killed and then reanimated as zombies by the Nazis who seek

to rule the world. Neo pop punk upstarts The Goblin Girls announced they're going on tour with their hit second album, Drown in Your Own Blood Nazi Scum. They promise they'll play some other old songs for the true fans, like they might play the ballad I'm going to jerk off to the video of my Brontosaurus stepping on your face, you Nazi Scum, or the more fast paced I Collect

your teeth, You Nazi Scum. The six piece band says that they're dedicating the tour to the memory of the rap Duog Club, who had announced the beginning of last year that they Hag Club would tour all of twenty fifty four in contested territory or until they were killed

for it, which tragically is what happened. The Goblin Girls said in their press release quote, Well, we come out of an unaffiliated anarchist militia fighting in Tennessee, so it's not like we thought we were going to survive twenty fifty five. Anyway, we hear at Cool Zone Media wish them the best of luck, but it wouldn't be a Cool Zone Media podcast of the twenty fifties if we

didn't shout out our most generous sponsor, Dino Cadence.

This podcast is brought to you by Dead Again Deliverables, your one stop shop for everything the modern zombie hunter needs, whether you're hunting the dead one on one in Vegas or fighting them in mass and the war ravaged Sonoran Desert. Dead Again Deliverables as you covered ice picks, crossbows, morning stars, piano wire, body armor, alarms, booby traps, zombie detection apparatus. They've even got a few cases of the new experimental Dead Again poison in This stuff is harmless to the living,

but deadly to the dead. With free delivery all over the world, you can count on dead Again, Dead Again deliverables because you only live once is enforceable by force. Studies on dead again and have not yet pulished their findings. Well, dead again poison has been proven efectivet killing the re animated debt it has not yet been proven.

I think it's the episode called Wolves Wolves Everywhere, but basically, Turkish scientists brought dire wolves back from extinction but found them too uncontrollable and generally not violent enough because you know, wolves only kill when they're hungry, so they began a process of killing and reanimating the wolves. Zombie dire wolves are slower and less capable in battle, but like all reanimated dead, it is very easy to direct them to kill.

The offensive comes at an unfortunate time, as most of the people's defense units of the area are currently fighting elsewhere because the area was scene is pretty safe. The attack really came out of nowhere. Civilian militias have begun to repel the attack, but at great cost. This week we also mourned the loss of Warren van Beek. You probably haven't heard of Warren van Beek, and there's a

reason for that. For twenty years, Warren worked deep undercover within the white nationalist movement in Johannesburg, feeding information to anti fascists. It's thanks to Warren's work we know about the failed Nationalist Unity Conference of twenty fifty. Garon Robert did a whole week on this topic back then when the findings came out, and it's worth going back and listening to. But brief well, the nationalists have a pretty major internal conflict, and internal conflict that serves us well.

There are three major factions on the nationalist side. There's the Stalingrad Faction, the Dallas faction, and the Johannesburg faction. The stalin Grad faction believes that all the nationalist forces should be united under a single leader Russia. The Dallas faction they believe more or less the same thing, but

think that the US should be in charge. The Johannesburg faction, joined by hundreds of regional forces from around the world, believes that the alliance between nationalist forces should not be unified, but instead the global right wing should stay decentralized. It's good to know that they have the same problems we do. It was Warren von Beek who exposed this divide to the internationalist community, at great risk to himself and the

internationalist community. Social engineers have been able to do an awful lot of deepening that divide. This is a war full of nameless behind the scene heroes, and now that he's dead, we can acknowledge that Warren von Beek was one of them. If it weren't for von Beek's work, we might all right now be living under nationalist stalinist governance. We don't yet have the full details about his death, but it seems as though he died clutching a grenade when fascist forces raided his house.

about that. It's in fighting in Allian scene. The Arizonian anti Pope Benedict the seventeenth announced today that his Army of the Righteous Catholic Faith has signed a peace treaty with the white nationalist Protestant leader John the New Baptist, paving the way for new Catholic slash Protestant unity fighting for a white nationalist America. This ends, or at least pauses, three years of bloodshed between various shades of far right Christians.

Benedict the seventeenth and his followers were of course, formally excommunicated from the Catholic Church ten years ago during the Disconcordant when Benedict the seventeenth told his followers that the Pope was the Antichrist for having supported citizen efforts to end World War Three. In much better news, scientists have announced that good Boy Benny is now the oldest dog to have ever lived, having reached thirty years of age.

Benny was the second dog to have undergone age delayment treatments, and the first one to be so successful. But there are tens of thousands of beloved friends across the world who have now lived extraordinarily long lives thanks to the age delayment treatments. Fifteen years ago, scientists claimed by twenty fifty five, dogs and cats will live as long as humans.

Of course, when they said that in twenty forty, they didn't realize that war and climate change were about to drop the world wide life expectancy by thirty years or so.

So dogs and humans are racing to keep up. An anti fascist revolt in the heartland of white nationalism broke out over New Year's unnamed anti fascist group in Knoxville, Tennessee put out a press release calling their revolt the Night of Nat Turner, and then they went on a targeted killing spree of local nationalist bureaucrats as well as several prominent racist figureheads. They killed a total of nine targets. Sixteen of the rebels were killed in the attack. Well

another six have made it to Free West Virginia. And that's about where we're at here at the start of twenty fifty five, besides all the stuff that went on in Singapore, which we have some in depth reporting from MIA about that and about the state of the supply chain. But first it's time for a little ad break. Don't you think even thinking, as it's been two long since

Margaret cut to ads, what's held all this filler? I know a lot of you all subscribed to Cooler Zone media just to get the weird edited, just the ad transitions. So you know, here's an ad transition. It's time to stop eating house plants. The Council for Countering Houseplant Consumption would like to remind you that most houseplants are mildly toxic to humans and do not contain nutritional value. The videos telling you pothoses a superfood were likely cooked up

in a Dallas misinformation lab. Do not eat house plants. Are you tired of suffering from climate grief syndrome, overwhelmed by hot summers and mass extinction? Do you want to spend your time riding a stegosaurce through the remaining forests of the world, rifle in hand, friends close by, listening to the birds shooting clearcutters. The Earth's lungs Defense Force

might be right for you. We are looking for dedicated environmentalists willing to stand between the lungs of the Earth and the corporations that are trying.

your jurisdiction. Joining the Earth's Lungs Defense Force has not yet been tested in double blind studies to reduce the symptoms of climate grief syndrome. Ask your therapist today if joining the Earth's Lungs Defense Force is right for you.

I will leave the immediate military analysis to others, stopping here only to note that running an entire social system based on having a bunch of servants to poor co of water free use you don't have to get up for your couch is an extremely bad way to run a society, both morally and logistically, and move swiftly on.

What I am interested in, however, is how Singapore became a front to the first place, and how shifts in global supply logistics heralded but not entirely produced by World War three point five, has led us to the end of Singapore, one of the world's most brutal settler colonies,

at the hands of internationalists and indigenous gorillas. Singapore's relative weakness in their war against both the internationalists and their own population has been in large part of product of what we've been calling the devolution of the supply chain. The devolution of the supply chain we've seen over the last half decade was, of course a devolution in a

double sense. On one hand, control of the vast global supply chains administered by massive corporations devolved down to either networks of coordinating councils or legis six wings of state armies. On the other hand, supply chains were now largely run

by dinosaurs. As we all remember well on the day of one thousand Suez Is in twenty forty nine, when a transwoman named Lily Baker and catch the first interview she's done since she literally went underground in season two of Under the Pants and Under the Ground, tasked with keeping the Internet running across three quarters of the world's cargo ships, simply walked away from her desk after being mistreated on the job one too many times and never came back, causing a pile up of ships in the

Suez that remains to this day. The tattered remains of the old globe spanning supply chains collapse completely in their wake. The essentialized networks of light manufacturing that had sprung up as attempts by civilians to survive the previous World War by producing the things they needed to survive for themselves, revved into full gear to supply them. Vast land convoys made of past of Cortheosaurus pulled massive carts of supplies

to areas too contested for the surviving train networks to function. Meanwhile, on the high seas, after a brief foray into a resurgence of sailboats proved unable to meet the challenge of running ships. In the age of the Vishnu Shield, various types of Ichiosaurus have an instrumental in moving supplies across the oceans. The massive supply platforms they haul are of course home to the famous pirate parties, the terradacto mounted buccaneer Dino writers who played such a crucial role in

cutting fascist logistics lines across one hundred fronts. We'll be talking about the platformists and their pirate parties on the show in a few weeks, so stay tuned for that. But in the meantime, it's not just pirate activities that we can Singapore's defenses. Chinese d industrialization is of course an old phenomena, dating back to the nearly prehistoric twenty tens, when I was still a breadad young lass, still wearing men's clothing and posting.

what does all this have to do with Singapore. Some of you already know that Dino writers from the either optimistically or nihilistically named Final Shanghai Commune, the successor to the Second and Third Shanghai Communes of the twenty thirties and twenty forties, were instrumental in cutting off fascist reinforcements from Beijing. But the most extensive damage inflicted on Singapore

by the devolution of the supply chain was economic. Singapore's role as a financial clearinghouse for capital in the Pacific RIM was already being made obsolete by the shift of capital away from the old Chinese and more modern Vietnamese rouss belts even before the old supply chains collapsed completely. But as they disappeared, much of Singapore's economy went with it.

When Neo Neom City, the first city That's a perfect circle, sink beneath the waves two years ago, it took most of Singapore's capital reserves beneath the waves with it, Now fatally weakened to besieged by internationalist forces, All it took was some clever weapons smuggling and the rage of an indigenous population forced to endure the endless cruelty of the Chinese Singaporean settlers to topple the People's Action Parties one

party state. To everyone on the front lines, we can for the first time declare today Singapore, tomorrow the world.
