As far
back in human history as we can determine, there have primarily been
two classes of people -- the ruling and the ruled. Rarely have
there been groups of organized humans where one group didn't
dominate the others. The means of control vary from raw physical
power, to beads, to gold, to superstition/religion, to control of
resources, to land/territory, to intimidation, etc. One common
thread that runs through most means of control is fear.
In our
contemporary period of history, the Nazis honed the fine art of
control through their development of fear based propaganda. Through
the decades, those lessons of how to control and then manipulate
masses of people were not ignored by right-leaning individuals and
groups in their obsessive and psychopathic/sociopathic pursuit of
power. In fact, those methods have been masterfully studied,
improved upon and adapted to today's expanded and expanding forms of
communications.
The ruling
class in America today has a vast economic power base that they
have used to seize control of ALL major industries in not only the
US, but in much of the world as well. They rarely do anything
illegal, since they now make and enforce their own laws. In our
country, they now not only control our financial realms, but the
political, military, government, industrial, etc., as well. Through
their highly effective use and control of what is referred to as the
"Main Stream Media" and the various voting processes, a
relatively small group of sociopathically insane, but excessively
rich, individuals have been able to manipulate the thinking and
votes of a large enough percentage of the public to achieve
effective political control.
You can
ask me for more details, regarding how they accrued all of this
power; however, I'd like to simply use this note to give you an
overview and explain how their devious activities have, most likely,
directly affected you.
They have
exquisitely used the old phrase, "divide and conquer" to pit
many different factions in our country against each other. We now
have a society which is politically at odds -- as well as racially,
religiously, sexually, financially, et al.
In this
maelstrom of media-splintered groupings, people combat their
artificially induced fear by taking advantage of the various forms
of new media outlets to find refuge among those with similar
leanings. In this artificially induced climate of fear and lack of
trust, common ground becomes difficult and the separations begin to
metastasize, become endemic and toxic, as well.
Unwittingly,
I believe that you have fallen victim to these various, malicious
forces that surround you. You live in an area that not only
promotes, but glories in the particular aspects of our culture that
are covertly and insidiously detrimental to it. You have been
powerfully brainwashed to believe that the "other" is
responsible for your various difficulties and that if "they"
could just be either eliminated or at least brought under control,
all would be well.
I sense
that with the recent elections and some of the political
maneuverings, you are losing some of your faith in the
lies and half-truths you have been told. Perhaps a small puncture of
accurate truth has moved you to have doubts about the veracity of
your beliefs. Now, you are involved in a very real dilemma, since
your recent belief system is proving to be unreliable and since you can't
possibly "join the other side," you feel isolated, impotent,
fearful. You feel that apathy is the only source of relief -- and
THAT is exactly how the powers that be want you to feel --
apathetic.
An
apathetic populace diminishes activism. An apathetic populace is
easier to control. Those who have been induced into the mass control
systems at play in the world, are often considered to be existing in
a "bubble." Escaping that bubble takes a concerted effort. It is
similar to kicking an addiction, in that once you start excluding
these negative and self-defeating influences from your life, you
must accept that you can't weaken or ever again allow them to
re-indoctrinate you into their effort to subvert your morality to
theirs.
Breaking
away from one group, does not mean that you must join another. What
must be taken as an ongoing process is the search for independent
input that provides you with unbiased and reality based facts. Seek
out truths that fit your personal sense of morality. Be diligent
when it comes to your sources, for they will become your lifeline to
your true self.
It seems
that there are three phases of maturity. As babies and small
children, we are primarily concerned with ourselves. As we grow and
mature, we become interested in, and develop concern for, those in
our immediate life -- our family, friends, teachers, co-workers,
local community, etc. The last phase, which too many never reach,
has to do with being concerned with the rest of the world. May I
propose that you take evaluation of yourself and see what phase of
maturity you exist in. What phase of existence will provide you with
a more fulfilling and fruitful view of yourself and others? Be
honest with yourself and allow your ever-expanding self-awareness to
determine how and where, on The Great Wheel Of Life, you want to
spend the rest of your days.
My very
best to you...
