YOU are either the Solution or the Problem

It really is time to stop pointing the finger at others regardless of how heinous they may be, as finger pointing is a futile and fruitless pursuit -- we all know too well! If the society in which you participate begins to rapidly decline morally and ethically then it is you that must reverse that trend, and it is not as difficult as you may first imagine.

Should we allow KNOWN liars, mass murderers, war mongers, rogues, criminals and sociopaths to maintain their position in government or other social positions of influence if they repeatedly abuse privileges, flout the law and OUR democratic rights and fail to represent the majority?

How often in this modern age have we witnessed candidates make promises to remedy wrongs and pledge to support the popular will only to see them gain office and then backflip on every promise and support the prevailing status quo? Often enough to make listening to our politicians the most tedious, distasteful task imaginable.

Rather than cite the endless problems of today’s leaders and governments I would immediately offer the most effective and permanent solution to ALL society’s woes, YOU!

How so?

Each of us supports the social status quo in one of two fundamental ways, actively or passively. By actively participating in a perverse society that society derives energy and support from you and others that do likewise. Passive support simply amounts to allowing KNOWN perversions, irregularities and crimes to go unchallenged; and of course some people are guilty of both attitudes. Positive and negative social dynamics reduce to the above two positions/attitudes.

However, a third option depletes the vital energy that all societies require to exist; that option relates to physical and psychological sub-scription. If you withdraw your active and passive support of a society that society losses the necessary support of one of its component parts. If you then direct your energies to actively reforming or subverting a perverse status quo then that status quo weakens by consequence. By openly displaying your thorough disdain and non-cooperative stance others who are also disillusioned and disenfranchised follow suit until a rapid escalation point is reached which then results in the collapse of the old status quo and the implementation of a new social paradigm.

Withdrawing your sub-scription to the prevailing perversity empowers the individual, as the parasitic/draining influence of (a perverse) society is severed. The individual becomes self-empowered once again and is better able to resist the dis-empowering forces that once enslaved the individual and reduced him/her to a consumer of negative and destructive ideas and behaviours.

Accept that you are indeed the solution or the problem and then forever be a friend to all and assist those in trouble in any way you are able while explaining how an inequitable unjust society has reduced that individual to their present predicament. In that way a small grass fire becomes a raging inferno that reduces all perversity and corruption to ash.

The entire world now stands at the threshold of REAL change or complete destruction; the age of perpetual war, mass murder, militarism, pollution and divisionism has proven to be diametrically opposed to the best interests of the overwhelming majority and the planet.

The choice is between accepting a culture of enslavement, individual degradation and oppression or implementing a culture of freedom, mutual cooperation and democracy. Understand that where cultures of enslavement have been established (USA/China) that a culture of resistance becomes a prerequisite to a culture of freedom. One is the evolutionary outcome of the other but RESIST we MUST if positive change is to be effected!

We are all able to contribute to the establishment of a just, fair and equitable society, if only by relentlessly resisting the culture of enslavement and withdrawing all support for its ideological and physical apparatuses.

True freedom is WON never bestowed.

The simple act of sharing this message with others empowers individuals and contributes to the demise of cultures of enslavement; by actively pursuing positive change perverse cultures are weakened and eventually collapse to be replaced with more equitable, harmonious social systems -- and never forget that all positive effort regardless of how insignificant it may appear to be, eventually bears fruit.
