Display Cases
These display cases were made for a friend. I like them, they really do help to improve the visual impact of the items they protect. Even the motorbike helmet looks super cool in its case. Personally, I think these display cases make their items look special, like they belong in a museum.
They’re not exactly an item of furniture, more of an ornament, but it’s either in here or the art page.
Anyway, the timber I have used is Brigalow. Unfortunately, due to over clearing, Brigalow is now a protected species. It is a classic dark chocolate brown coloured timber that gives these display cases a very classic and refined look. As an aside, Brigalow is one of my favorite timbers as it smells very much like violets when it is worked.
I didn’t built any doors into the display cases because the purpose is to display the items, not play with them.
And, since we’re on the subject of museum pieces, there’s some other things I can think of that need to be put in some display cases all of their own. Freedom, democracy, truth, justice. I could go on, but it’s a long list.
In the case of democracy, in case you haven’t noticed, democracy exists only as a historical relic now. Sure voting exists and there is a pretense that that still matters, but it’s a ruse. It’s an illusion designed to make people think that there is still such a thing. The reality is, democracy died many years ago.
So then, our governments role, very soon, if not already, will be to be the beating stick wielded by the parasite class.
And who might be that parasite class you speak of?, I can hear you asking. Well, it’s those multi billionaire individuals and corporations that dictate global policy for their own shameless profit making. Those diktats are, in turn, then taken by the unelected and unaccountable global alphabet agencies such as the UN and WHO and turned into global “policy”. That “policy” is then force fed to your government by way of global “treaties” and “agreements”.
And it is then, at this point, that your government enacts those things into law. Laws that you are forced to obey and abide by even though they do not serve you, they serve the shameless whores known as the parasite class.
None of it has been asked for. None of it has been voted for. And, most importantly of all, NONE of it is for your benefit. So the next time your exposing yourself to propaganda, in which ever way you choose to consume it, spare a thought for what was once a thing called democracy. It is now interned in its own display case gathering dust in some forgotten corner right next to a thing we used to call freedom.
