The experiences of life, and a profound proclivity toward observation, has led me down a road that has been filled with astounding revelations of the nature of humanity. This is a crude attempt at an introduction to what I'll begin to detail in this series. Eventually I'll take the time to put links for reference to reading and other information materials. I don't expect many to initially have interest, but the deeper you go down this proverbial rabbit hole the more you will want to know. I look forward to civil discussion on any factual material I present, or material that I proffer as my own conclusion. I am concerned for the welfare of my billions of brothers and sisters that inhabit this rock hurling through space and time. We are at a nexus of ideologies, and it's time for us to break free. I digress.
Woe unto us! We, the people of the world, should have arrived at the self-evident conclusion that our leaders are the lesser among us. These people are not just those elected, but those self appointed. The celebrities, the billionaire class, the self identified gurus, intellectuals and assortment of other fools and mountebanks that fill our news streams daily. (By news streams I mean any method or source by which we receive information.)
Throughout history we have been kept in bondage, conflict and strife over the "isms". Communism, Socialism, racism, fascism, capitalism. It appears most words ending in ism are used to divide or rule. The isms have been foisted upon us through religion, war, greed, demagoguery, and our own unwillingness to accept that we are human beings and have natural rights. These rights belong to no church, no government, no landlord, no mortgage holder, no celebrity. These rights are inherent at birth.
Stop trying to look and act like people your claim to admire. What have any so called reality television personalities done for you? What has the President or any elected official done for you? Why do you feel the need to fit a body type, or clothing style to assimilate? Look in the mirror, that face you wake to every day is the only one that is deserving of your unwavering admiration. Others should earn your admiration through real actions to better humanity. Stop trying to emulate morons. Think about it, it's mass madness you maniacs! Question everything!!!
Everywhere you look today your are being told you aren't happy enough (by big Pharma), you aren't attractive enough (by the fashion industry and their narcissistic allies), you don't fit in (by the overall consumer culture that keeps us in debt slavery until death), you aren't educated enough to work (by a collusion between banks, government and higher education to keep you indebted until death for a useless piece of paper). STOP! This isn't you! This is a you that was created by a ideology that started long before you were born and is so ingrained in us that we accept it as reality. This is the straw man that was created to be you, but it's not. You are individual, you are legion, in self you find peace and courage.
Part of the problem can be found in how we educate the young. We have one of the saddest systems of education. (Read "The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America" by Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt, or just look for her on YouTube). These institutions no longer educate, they teach young people how to be compliant and obedient. They teach us how to accept without question. They train us to be slaves to to a complete absence of reason. We are being bred to be mindless consumers of garbage. Ask yourself why can't people spell or phonetically pronounce words. When did being culturally sensitive equate stooping to a lowest common denominator. If for a moment I could believe this was to allow the disadvantaged a stake in society I would be silent. It is however, the opposite. The best way to spot a fool is to allow him to act on his own accord.
Think about this, when I worked in a hotel many years back, the managers were being trained to speak Spanish, Vietnamese and a few other languages spoken by the back-of-house employees (dish washers, housekeepers, etc). This hotel never offered the antithesis to the workers. They would not be provided English lessons so that they could speak equally with their management. In microcosm this demonstrates how those that rule maintain authority by not allowing the working class the opportunity for education.
As individuals and as a community we can break down these hard edified ideologies that have enslaved generations of humanity. I can't say how right now, but first, in the words of Howard Beale in the movie Network said, "First you have to get mad..."
Peace and enlightenment to all.
