Titan Handshakes: A Utopian Doc

Titan Handshakes: A Utopian Doc

A Story by Abishai100
"

A portrait of modern American rhetoric/complexity, viewed through a social-media/traffic 'view' for Western hubris.

"
A pseudo-evangelical tale about modernism/Utopian hindsight, inspired (loosely) by Capitalism: A Love Story (Michael Moore). Thanks for reading,

Amlan and Raki, two college-grad pals living comfortably in the post-9/11 era Homeland (United States), had found their desired life-visions while making a 'killing' on Wall Street during the 2009 mini-crash with Ford. Now, they hoped to use their newfound life of fortune to cast a special social-media culture 'friendly' superstition-storyboard concerning the 'personality' behind modern commerce-life Ego/traffic commentary and handshakes (hmm).



AMLAN: "Let's reference a canonical American university for modern social-media fortune/life."
RAKI: "We'd consider how scholarships may yield an examination for spiritual capitalism too."



Well, these two 'gents' of the American landscape had found much energy and happiness during their jaunt into the examinations of capitalism-race activity and found some off-duty time investing in the Western-world culture of sports-media/market 'chess-excellence' behind Super Bowl and football/cheerleader souvenirs and treasures including social-media photography and sports trade-cards. They'd become the 'perfect' American messengers of the commerce/media life handshake (ha).



AMLAN: "Me wonders if this jaunt into fortune-IQ draws in the 'dragon' of terrorism."
RAKI: "You're correct, friend; in fact, terrorism is the AntiChrist (now)."
AMLAN: "You wonder if our 'valor' may draw in an adversarial messenger (now)."
RAKI: "That's conceivable, for any Utopian 'vision' for commerce/media life sanity."
AMLAN: "Well, Lucifer did rebel against God and prompt Adam/Eve towards Hellfire."
RAKI: "Maybe our brand of fortune-IQ storytelling draws in a messenger of complications."
AMLAN: "We'll have to be some kind of 'geniuses' in this case of Homeland risk(s)."



Sure, the Chrisitan prophecies in Revelation described the troubles at the End of Days, when the 'adversarial' AntiChrist and the dragon of darkness and the 'legions' of doom would rise to social media level prominence and drive the Earth towards a catharsis-examination, and surely, we'd seen much 'likened' tribulations in the new millennium, threatening this new commerce/media life 'flowery' (e.g., 9/11, Coronavirus, Trump impeachment, Russo-Ukraine War, Enron scandal). Was this the 'Crusade' of these two fortune-princes of the United States (Amlan/Raki) --- an 'advocacy' message concerning the strong resilience in this new age 'face' of Western-world handshakes and hospitality (wow)?



Well, this adversarial messenger did indeed take-form and come to the Homeland to 'challenge' Amlan/Raki during their cyber-storyboard 'mission' to cast special fortune/media life superstitions as a lens for capitalism-race 'ethos' defenses/rhetoric catering to a lifestyle advocacy/cheer for a 'Utopian' handshake! This adversary was a masked stalking Manhattan serial-killer, a woman of lovely proportion calling herself the AntiHeroine, who sought to offer this pair of 'do-gooders' a special complication-idea regarding the undeniable presence in all this Earth-traffic of the 'psychotic' anti-capitalist 'American' head-master, perhaps cast as an 'avatar' of home/community invasion(s) in modern investment and real-estate paranoia themed horror/thriller films like The Strangers (hmm).



ANTI-HEROINE: You're 'certainly' the pair of musketeers of the post-9/11 era!
AMLAN/RAKI: Thanks for 'connecting' on social-media chat platforms (with us).
ANTI-HEROINE: You 'doubt' I'm the serial-killer known as AntiHeroine, no?
AMLAN/RAKI: We've no reason to 'doubt' this, but we've no evidence, so carry on!
ANTI-HEROINE: Yeah...don't worry about that 'pesky' prosecutions/examination IQ.
AMLAN/RAKI: We won't; we'll treat this as a simple inspiration for customs-review.
ANTI-HEROINE: Good.
AMLAN/RAKI: Well, what's the nasty deal with this advocacy of American traffic?
ANTI-HEROINE: There's more 'darkness' than you think with Homeland principality.
AMLAN/RAKI: There's that 'reader-hand' of Hell, but there's a fortune to capitalism.
ANTI-HEROINE: This is what terrorists who attack America despise --- Utopianism.
AMLAN/RAKI: There's an accessible idealism in social-media life for fortune-IQ.
ANTI-HEROINE: Through sports-gambling and treasures-collections and Wall Street?
AMLAN/RAKI: Sure...in fact, America offers a 'game' for tech-driven business/chess.
ANTI-HEROINE: Capitalism favors the opportunist and pirate (alike)!
AMLAN/RAKI: There's an 'insanity' to adventurism in risk/investment, sure.
ANTI-HEROINE: That's my message, buds --- the 'presence' of Hell/murder.
AMLAN/RAKI: Capitalism's a love-story of 'wrought' heroics fantasy/deeds, darling.
ANTI-HEROINE: You two think 'very' alike --- like 'brothers' of Homeland's handshake.
AMLAN/RAKI: Do we remind you of the 'goodness' of treasures/readership?
ANTI-HEROINE: You've achieved that 'rare' trophy-mind of American heat (sure).
AMLAN/RAKI: Good luck for your adversarial messaging; and to us for heaven.
