Deadbeat human enablers wear a straight jacket of political, religious, and governmental "rules".

Said differently, the deadbeat enablers are the "host" of the elites. Indeed, they are probably the host of whatever passes for human evil.  The elites are the elites BECAUSE OF the enablers, not visa versa.

 

Enablers are those Duh brained neighbors who have television sets for brains and whose religion is the obedience of stupidity.  In some sense they "cause" the vampire elites.  Their sloth, cowardice, and stupidity are the hellish brew which is poisoning the human race.

 

The single most important way they do this is that they mindlessly obey all the TOTALLY ARBITRARY rules, regulations, "commandments” and rituals of "the social game of the world". The tragedy is that to the degree that our species "swallows whole" these game rules, is the degree to which we are simply machine creatures who tick, tock our way to death.

 

To borrow a much stretched analogy, these "game rules" are the crown of thorns worn by our species.  And so long at we don't RISE TO THE CHALLENGE OF TRANSCENDING THESE GAMES RULES, we will be doomed to wear this elite-constructed straight jacket until our species becomes extinct -- which is inevitable, since evolution likes change and invention, not the Duh brained obedience of machine organisms.  

 

Stupidity is obedience.  Intelligence is transcendence, and Homo sapiens (in general) are obedience incarnate.

 

Sometimes in one's personal life you have to make a decision between your "family of origin" and your own unique existence. It's mostly a matter of trust.  Who/what do you trust more?  Your own intuitions and feelings or the calcified games rules (again) of your family of origin.  For the fortunate few, the choice doesn't have to be made, but since dysfunctional families are the rule and not the exception, this is indeed perhaps the most important moment of truth of our individual life.

 

This is basically the same dilemma for the human race. Who/what do we trust more?  Our own fundamental human nature or this straight jacket of religious, political, and governmental "rules and regulations" which program our lives? 

 

Religion is probably the ultimate straight jacket, but more pragmatically the straight jacket is "politics".
