A random stream of thought that jumps around, raw and unedited



Understanding power and humanity’s quest for it.
Psychology.

-History: the observance of others, their brain orientations, how they thought and how they viewed the concept of humanity and human loyalty, and learning new ideas from past experiences, mistakes, and gains of the human race’s library of ideas and collection of ideologies. Using this knowledge to benefit the human race or oppress it.

-Money: Bribing people, forcing them out of necessity to prostitute themselves to a boss/manager/owner and “sell” (literally) their loyalty where they would

-People are just different, no better or worse, smarter or more stupid than each other, but some have certain structures of thought, allowing them to think in a unique way in order to understand things. Mathematicians are brilliant logicians who have no creativity/revolutionary outside-of-the-box thought, but can execute their tasks so well, so quickly and efficiently, a honing of mind in a sense. But with this honing of mind one closes one’s mind to new ideas, to change (it hardens and settles into concrete) and loses one’s creativity. On the contrary, the opposite end of the spectrum, (The Matrix Agents are an example of 100% efficiency, 0% humanity, Morpheus is an example of almost 100% humanity, but not quite, because he has conditioned/desensitized himself so he can hurt/kill other human beings inside the matrix and not feel guilt for it)

-The upper class (top of power echelon) is ignorant to the suffering of the lower class.

-The lower class (base of the pyramid), who are blinded by hatred and cannot feel compassion for the other classes, and there are the middle classes, those who could bring about such change but have conditioned themselves not to care about others’ plight.

-Some words are made just so someone can show them off. Exculpate, when the hell was the last time you heard that in casual conversation?

-Respect: the act of acknowledging another human’s capabilities/ideas/strength/intellect as something new, different, possibly more powerful than your own.

-Self Respect: (1) the act of selflessly recognizing such a characteristic in yourself. (2) holding your dignity and maintaining your morality and esteem (in the fact of adversity).

1. thought spectrum: the range of one’s thought (left to right, 0 is closed and 10 is open), and the honing of one’s practical executing capabilities (down to up), 0 being totally undisciplined and unconditioned, unco-ordinated, software not installed, and 10 being ultimately conditioned, able to work with the efficiency of a machine.

Idea.

The cataloging of the history of your life and the world and time’s change over you. How you thought, where your ideals lay, if you had ever betrayed/sold your ideals, how you perceived life. Day by day, the evolution a constant changing of the mind as it progresses through time. After all, there is only one direction to travel for humans, and that is forward, headstrong into time and into eternity.

Why do dictators and warlords insist on grasping and holding onto power, when they know that if they forfeited their power, their people would benefit? Because they are addicted to power, the most intoxicating and addictive drug in existence, and they depend on it, and most importantly they grow to think that this power is their right, their entitlement, and that anyone who tries to take it away from them needs to be dealt with. They’re no more than addicts.

The United States of America (the moralists thereof) try to take power from the oppressor and give it back to the people, but the people misunderstand their noble intentions. (Benevolent assumption of power, which of course evolves into a greedy, groping hand on power). Of course there are those on the other end of the spectrum, who care not for the people and wish only to take their power and exploit them.

“Writing is 99% re-writing.” (Joe)
“It was 100% form, until today, and this jumble which is 0% rewriting.” (Me)

-Music (song) is a mixture of the expression/aesthetic presentation of ideas and the ideals themselves. Pure music is an aesthetic presentation of nothing (Brittany Spears), fluff, with nothing underneath, no depth. Pure ideas are the unaesthetic, raw, naked, blunt presentation of a deeper truth, without dressing it with gravy (ideals for the truths to hide behind). It is the naked truth.

-All words imply a power connotation:
peacekeeper- boss/arbitrator
equal- the people holding an equal amount of power

-Every movie is a story of the rise and/or fall of a human being from power.

-Being born one man, leading a fight (brainwashing humans, gaining strength) day by day against an empire or corporation or repressive boss or government, and what a feeling of ecstasy it must be to finally bring that oppressor down (only to become the oppressor, inherit the cursèd mantle of power and continue the vicious cycle of repression.

-Going behind enemy lines, being a thief, leading a rebellion against an empire, exposing yourself to a power much mightier than yourself, cheating death, dancing the deadly game for the end result of your gain and their defeat.

-Growing up every day in a group, growing pride every day of who you are, who your people are. Then squaring off against another such gang of loyalists. Indian tribal warfare. (Put yourself in those shoes)

-The cop. (Put yourself in those shoes)

-Occupation of Tibet: telling yourself there is no way to change it , there is no possible solution to the equation, and convincing yourself that you don’t care, it’s not your problem (then whose is it?), there is nothing you can do about it, until finding you believe yourself: you have conditioned yourself to suppress your humanity.

-The human population is becoming less and less human, more and more machine, more and more desensitized, more

-The political election: the act of winning peoples’ minds over (literally, you hold the minds), is a competition/sport against other peers in the deadly decision of who do we let make our choices for us, who are we going to place our trust, and our life.

-Desensitization to pain grows when one believes when one does not believe that that pain could not possibly happen to them

-Being bestowed by one’s honourable attentions toward thou, and not reciprocating that selfless camraderie.

-Confucius was definitely high.

-There have always been two classes, the oppressor and the oppressed. But over time there has grown a middle class, a class who simply does not care for the oppressed and tolerates the oppressor, accepting the burden with a “such is life” resigned justification

-Capitalism: being born into a world where every man fight for himself, where each man attempts to climb the ladder to the top of the power structure, step by step until they reach the top of the oppression ladder, asserting their domination of others.
Russians, at least they tried in their attempt to prove that the human race were meant to be comrades, but the Russians woke up when Stalin came to power.

-Subordination: the process of disciplining yourself to take orders from another human being without questioning those orders.

-How illogical the idea of a holiday is, forcing yourself to show emotion, living a lie for tradition’s sake, for once upon a time, long ago, when people actually cared for each other, had loyalty, and stood up for their brethren

-Nudists have escaped from the tight prison of thought and tradition that confines the mind.

-The first time you see a train move, a plane fly, a television transmit information across space, after you were thinking it was impossible for your whole life! (Put yourself in those shoes)

-A movie is a man’s message to influence others to his side of the story, his point of view. Changing the dials in your brain, shifting your mental arrows to a different train of thought, one you had never before contemplated, sometimes one you had dismissed.

-Inventing a new technology, all your life thinking it would bring good to the world, only to see others use it to their own advantage, what a feeling of betrayal, seeing someone steal your idea and use it to oppress other human beings. (Put yourself in those shoes)

-Being in power is noble at first, using your intellect to help others, improve their situation. But soon you begin to use it more to your advantage and less to their, begin corrupted day by day, degree by degree. Finally, you are completely converted, 100%, you have nothing human left in you.

-College (and life): opening your mind to new people, converting strangers into friends, growing more and more accustomed to it day by day, and ultimately having them replace the slot in your mind and heart once held by now-forgotten childhood friends.

-Reminiscing: imagining the old times, where things were simple, and people lived for a cause and people cared about each other, days where there was no king and no subjects, where people lived without knowing the terrible thing which is the corruptible, sadistic human mind.

Machiavellian: The way to rule a mind. Manipulation through fear, hope, and compassion, for the end game of subjecting the people.

-When the peasant overthrows the empire, it upsets the balance of power temporarily, but the peasant becomes the emperor, only to rule other peasants.
