rideforever 971 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I sense there are parallels in our current situation (and the several decades preceding) ... and the fall of various Empires, leading to a Dark Age. Unless a new means of communication not owned by the unnatural people is found, society will fall, too much evil is being injected into it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
arcella 3 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I do concur we live in a dark age but the problem is rooted in the acceptance and normalisation of violence. Violent behaviour has become venerated. Violent individuals are now the most respected members of the society. All forms of violence including simulated violence should be verboten. What is unnatural is not necessarily evil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Their favourite word is "offended". This society has no violence, it is dead. What society needs is for people to get angry ... But watching that documentary earlier today I had a strange dawning realisation that human beings have no fucking idea what they are doing. None of them. None of those on this board either. Everyone has a complaint, everyone has a plan, everyone has an enemy. Humans are mad ... mad mad mad ... they don't even know who or what they are or why they live. They have no idea about anything at all. In the Dark Ages, generation after generation had complaints plans revolutions ... it is just chaos. Nobody has any clue. Whatever results in each era is just random fluke. To be Self Realised or spiritual enlightened actually means ... to be sane. And very very few humans get there. The rest just keep talking Thousands of years of talking. Edited August 3, 2020 by rideforever 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Contemporary society lacks skillful orators and polemicists. Younger generations are absorbed in social conventions. Even when they protest, all the younger generation can manage is a sterile version of the sixties, but without the good natured optimism and powerful rhetoric of that decade. The younger generation of today know they lack the authenticity of previous generations which is why they turn to violence. Violence has become a form of self expression for them. The only way they can express themselves. Edited August 3, 2020 by arcella Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone else in this era .. is degenerate. In the 50s things were very different, they still had agriculture and the war inside their bones. Today ... well it's all shit and should make you vomit if you have any self respect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The fifties were very austere but many were also tired of conflict. Anything for a quiet life. We are living in the worst possible time in terms of non-material human development. Humans are aggressive and territorial and have been manipulated to be this way by the decadent society we inhabit. We need to relearn the very basics about morality.

You are not living in the real world ... but in a mist of fake lies given to you by the media .... The truth is never has humanity been more evolved and moral .... Violent crimes and homicides in all developed countries have halved over the last 30 years The number of People doing unpaid voluntary work in all countries is off the charts .... Over one in five (22%) people in the UK formally volunteered regularly ,at least once a month (11.9 million people).https://data.ncvo.org.uk/volunteering/#:~:text=This gives an estimate of,year (11.9 million people). These are people working free in Hospitals or cat shelters ...most after working a day job !!! Edited August 4, 2020 by oz93666 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rideforever 971 Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 "Violence" ... what do you mean by that. Slaves live under extreme violence. The destruction of culture and reduction of society to materialism is extreme violence. The destruction of democracy and morality is extreme violence. If people are not actively resisting this ... that is not a good sign. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rideforever 971 Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 Another documentary is about the rise and fall of Byzantium ... this is the Eastern Christian world centred in Constantinople that lasted for over a thousand years. Well, the thing to see is how completely unstable the world really is, with endless invading armies, plans and leaders. Although the real state of people is not shown, what is shown is the rise fall and change of external structures. But anyway, one thing is for sure humans are entangled in the endless churning of the material world, they are ensnared in it ... and real solutions must come from outside of this material. Everyone has a plan grudge and a dream, but it is all fearful lostness. Good documentary, with many funny bits like the Queen who promises her dying husband that she will never remarry ... only to be remarried a week after he died !!!
