A person is smart but people are stupid. With enough time spent with others outside my close circle its often hard to digest what I see and hear. The emotional despotism and excessive playing of roles seems to get worse as time goes on. Its really sad because it confirms the damage done by predictive programing, cultural Marxism and compulsory education. I watch day after day as people are mistreated and disrespected because people believe so ardently in the pretend roles they assume. In my current line of work there is heavy saturation of Nepotism that chokes any morale and comradery between colleagues. Very much like the Stanford prison experiment or the "lord of the flies" effect, people for the sake of money and dumbed down cultural obedience actually become mentally or emotionally stimulated by their pretend roles and manifest "real" problems with others pretending roles.
With the ex-Bolshevik takeover and changing of education into mimicking and memorization you can see how so much fustration and suffering is from a sort of identity displacement; feeling unfulfilled and dis-contentedness even though they work and consume. Why aren't things getting better? Why is the world plunging into a dark age of increased war, disease, inflationary depressions, poverty, doubt, fear? Why are more and more people each year on psychological drugs, why is bigger government determining our future and freedoms? Why isn't anyone improving this?
For example; I witness people who hear words and concepts like healthy eating, organic food, etc but are incapable of making a relationship to the meanings of those words outside of conceptual understanding and memorization. But to understand the social-economic-political relationships these words have and how entangled they are with the rise or fall of the current ideologies that hold this country together involve a level of awareness you cannot learn in school. This is generally because school teaches that;
* Truth comes from Authority
* Intelligence is the ability to repeat and remember
* Accurate memory and repetition are rewarded.
*Non- compliance is punished
* one must conform intellectually and socially.
From ancient social programming to modern it is written over and over that if a child could be kept childish beyond its term in nature, if they could be cloistered in a society of children without any real responsibility besides obedience, if their inner lives could be attenuated by removing critical thought, if the imminence of death and certainty of pain and loss could be removed from daily consciousness, if the profound reflections of ones impermanence could be replaced with the trivializing emotions of greed, lust, desire, young people would grow older but would never grow up. Schools and indeed society creates fixed habits of reaction of authority. This precludes critical judgment completely. Also determining each persons social role, your function based on cumulative records and fixes your place in the social machine to adhere to conformity. Next as Galton and Darwin mention greatly, schools and the social collective focus on hygiene. The previous mentioned functions are to better identify the unfit or terminally inferior. To separate the weak from the strong. This is part of the propaudeutic function. In other words only a small fraction of "kids" will take over management of this continuing project, guardians of a population deliberately dumbed down and rendered childlike in order that government and economic life can be governed with limited hassle.
People do so little outside the act of consuming and so have they become consumers rather than produces; takers rather than givers, buyers rather than makers. They have little to contribute and base so much of their happiness on the illusion of freedom through choice. And it's a dollar menu. Because that is all they have in the myopic scope of what it means to be alive. Yes, I place heavy judgment on the person I come across and this world because as long as people remain ignorant these conditions will impact me and my family because this, after all is a wonderful democracy where the wolves tell the sheep what is for dinner.
So as they smoke and eat shit they give power to corporations snatching of the genetic blueprint for nearly ever species to make intellectual property, forging alliances with government to have specific laws shift power over food, resources and make natural freedoms become rights and entitlements while they stop the independent progression of hopeful research via bio tech firm protection. As they watch their bills increase because of Keynesian economics and fractional banking that has taxed them by the very money they print with the eye of providence and the very symbol meaning slavery they play up their persona and roles that give them a little taste of illusory freedom so they don't come to the simple conclusion; that they don't know what to do. I am tired of seeing ignorance prevail.
None are more enslaved than those who believe they are free. They can act, think, feel, mimic and pretend all they want, in the end what you truly know by practical wisdom, not conceptual knoweldge will determine if you will adapt to the changes coming.
