quote:
I understand your perspective.

If you would just give it a real chance, you might see that we are still slaves, just with an illusion of choice.

Voting is a joke. When was the last time we had faith in our government, or any of our leaders?

Think of a building with two entrances, one left and one right. What if it doesn't matter which door you chose because they both lead to the same and only exit.

The only thing worse than tyrants, slavery and all this ugly past you spout on about, is the illusion of change.

When people can see their cage, at least they can will to break out. What's worse is convoluted truth contorted until you believe you live in the wild, but instead voluntarily chose to lock yourself in a cage.

I understand. The fact that you can see the bars is due to information. Technology is allowing our immature brains a magnifying glass. Just know that it is adversity that sparks evolution.

If the boatloads of info are poison, what is the end result? Its a subconscious desire to feel in an open and free state but the ego does its patriarchal bs and tries to maintain control. When it can't, it destroys itself.

Remember that through letting go and ego death can we go from being able to see the bars to the realization that we're inching slowly along to see that there are no bars. Its a paradoxical balance that shows that both are true and untrue depending on perspective.

It is somewhat ironic that your desire to stand on a soap box and tell everyone this, in order to change the world, is fueled by ego/control/patriarchy. Its as if you give the people you are fighting legitimacy by fighting them.

To embrace the wild is to let go. Another appropriate paradox. Feel the truth, without emotion, and you're not a slave. More and more people will do this. Change comes slowly.

Your syntax and choice word intricacies make you seem to the regular guy that you are intellectual and pioneering some great thought.

Honestly you couldn't make less sense and I pity you for that.

We live in a world with more information and less wisdom.
More timely conveniences but less time
More relationships but less intimacy.
More money but less true luxury
More technology but more work
More people but less friends,

Lecture me all you want. Suicide rates are up, murder rates are up, we have less privacy than ever, more false security than ever, more useless junk but less valuables.

You take your quantity of life over quality. I'd die fighting on my feet than living on my knees

I venture to guess you might not see it quite the same
