Politics
Feast or famine
There is a ravenous beast that seems to go unnoticed... until it starts to run out of food.
A basic tenet of a successful, thriving society of any Human culture is "to do good". In a bit of wisdom to buffer against moral relativity or even the subjectiveness of "What IS good?", Mankind rightly developed The Golden Rule, or "Do onto others as you would have others do onto you." I won't even go Biblical on all of this, and I will stick strictly to common sense and basic ethics. Quite frankly, it really saddens me that I even have to feel compelled to write this.
One of the most ridiculous notions ever perpetrated upon humanity is this idea that religion and politics are two separate things that need to be kept separated.
To keep that offensive word "religion" out of it, I'll just use in substitution the word "ethics" (for our ethics ARE, in fact driven by our religion. And I will just go on to say that even atheism is a religion...a fact that most atheists are too intellectually dishonest to even comprehend... but I'm digressing).
So to repeat, the most ridiculous idea perpetrated upon humanity is that ethics and politics are two separate things that need to be kept separate. Now, besides the obvious ridiculousness of THIS statement, I will go on to make my points even further. This ridiculous idea, of course, was put into humanity's head by that ravenous beast that I started talking about in my opening statement. And the ridiculousness of this idea really goes unnoticed by most people...well until that beast starts to run out of food, as I will now go on to explain.
The food, is the ravenous beast's singular objective. In the spirit of remaining non Biblical I will just call the ravenous beast what it undeniably is : evil.
Now evil's currency is NOT what we call money. For evil has an unlimited supply of that commodity through Fractional Reserve Banking. (This is a whole other subject that is definitely worth exploring.) This money DOES come in handy to evil as a great tool to control it's markets.
Its markets are evil"s ACTUAL food.
But back to evil's currency. Its really no surprise to anyone that evil's actual currency is basically bribes, payoffs, ( salaries, bonuses and one time payments) and extortion and blackmail.
Now who are the ones ( the market) who this kind of currency can be used upon?... well its NOT good people who would strictly and faithfully follow the golden rule. (Although the people who unknowingly slip into this economy seem to either get out, or develop their own perverted kind of "do onto others" ethic...)
In evil's ever increasing ravenous hunger it needs a constantly expanding market of depraved, compromised, perverted of the golden rule, "self preserving" people to consume. THIS explains greatly how and why evil expands. (Drug use/dealing,addictions, pornography, perversion, occultism, crime, general increasing depravity in culture and the film, t.v and music industry... on and on... its like a food creating machine.) Evil needs more and more people to fall into its system, and fortunately for IT, it can continually bribe and buy off more and more people with its never ending money supply. (Unfortunately, this force of evil also operates in many, many churches, mostly mega churches, but these bought off, extorted, compromised, bribed people,are most definitely and systemically planted there also and feeding this ravenous beast.)
Here is a perfect illustration of this kind of feeding the beast, and I will admit, the inspiration of this write. Recently having watched the bought off, or bribed or extorted mainstream media singularly, without equivocation attack a candidate for having the audacity to even suggest the possibility of a rigged or manipulated election. (My, how quickly we seem to forget the 2000 election) Well.... Where do these marching orders come from? And why is this "press" or is it "presstitute media"? Why is it so afraid to express a differing opinion? (Not to even mention how they are perpetrating or trying to perpetuate the notion onto the public that a certain, very popular candidate is losing in the polls.)
I am trying desperately to keep Biblical terminology out of this discussion, but it is becoming more and more obvious that
religion or "ethics" is being dragged kicking and screaming into everybody's (or maybe I should specify, a still thinking/non zombie?, Human being's) awareness.
Well, the beast is running out of food.
More and more people are becoming aware of, or noticing this beast.
More and more people are saying "No" to being consumed by this "system".
More and more people are saying "The price to my own soul and/or our society called Humanity, is way too high for me to be consumed by this beast". (There's that ugly "religion" or at least
"ethics" thing again.)
There IS a ravenous beast that seems to go unnoticed...until it starts to run out of food.
So now we are left here staring at this beast....
...and sometimes it even shows us its evil, ugly toothy grin.
