Please note the obvious: if you feel you are not included in my usage of the word "we", then, by all means, don't feel obligated to be included in the majority of the state of humanity.
The world desires to be subjugated. Perhaps not in words, and speech, but in action, and sometimes thought. Just look at everyone around you, and you'll see that the conflict between slavery and freedom is usually won on the side of slavery. We agree to be hypnotized by shitty entertainment. We vote for tyrants who tighten societal nooses around our necks even tighter. We send our children into wars knowing that the wars are based on lies pumped up by narcissistic and substanceless patriotism. We eat the poison of fast food that cause diseases and dysfunctions in our bodies. Then, we have such low self-esteems afterwords, that we dare not speak up for ourselves in relation to our dickhead managers at work.
Why don't we get together, as the oppressed, rise up and change things? After all, it is the masses of oppressed people on all of earth who are the driving forces of everything in the global economy. No way! We need to continue on in our infantile fantasies that the state provides for us, and pass off responsibility on to political psychopaths. That's what we do. We drag ourselves in to voting booths in an unquestioning stupor to vote for evil across the board, left or right, democrat or republican. Then we go to Wal-Mart to buy a few morsels of food with our political campaign Obama food stamps.
Meanwhile, Obama protects his "political adversary" George W. Bush from any kind of war tribunals for lying and murdering millions of people overseas. And he also protects the banks who fund his campaign, such as Goldman Sachs, who continue to gamble the economy of America away and down the drain. No, no, we need to protect Obama from any criticism, and Bush from being accountable for any of his murderous policies.
Let us, as intellectuals, just continue to drive home the acceleration of America's failure so that we can at least fill our own pockets by our own wit, and feed our own children. Who cares about the rest of the world? Just as long as they buy and read our books, and cut us a check for coming to our intellect inspiring speeches. It's okay. The guilt seems to have boundaries for those who love a pretty penny, and those who like to review their speeches over and over in order to correct any "imperfections."
Bloat the ego with dough, crack, and chicks, and the intellect starts to fail. After all, the maintenance of dough, crack, and chicks are high indeed. They require the full attention of a master of whatever trade. When you start to see how certain dynamics work, then you see what really fuels greatness in any field or trade. It often is the suffering and deprivation of resources that drive certain "special" individuals off the ground and high above the rest of humanity. And so the cycle continues on throughout the ages. The gauntlet of human life on earth never changes. Only peoples' first names, and technology to enable bigger disasters change. Do you think human beings, as a whole, are actually capable of evolving past distorted survival drives? Is there even such a thing as "as a whole" and "we" when it comes to the ego? Or is it all just for one, one's family, and fuck the rest?
Perhaps trips of guilt can win you the intellectual lottery, instead of 20th century pop capitalist ideas of "survival of the fittest" promoted by Ayn Rand, Sigmund Freud, and Charles Darwin. Perhaps now the formula is survival of the guiltiest, and survival of who is the biggest martyr. Wasn't the story of Christ bent, perverted, and distorted into a whole bloody martyrdom?
