WHERE IS OUR COMPASS POINTING NOW?
7 #WeaponizedHypnotism
Journeys are challenging.
Mental journeys are more challenging.
They are even more challenging when your compass is off and you walk around in circles. Schizophrenics refuse to calibrate their compasses to the stars. That is why they keep walking in circles. But because they are putting one foot in front of the other they believe they are making progress.
But what is the definition of progress?
It is a word that can mean almost anything.
It, in fact, means something different to everyone.
Most people believe their goal should be happiness.
But…
Happiness has a weakening effect on humans
Pursuit of happiness is like drug addiction.
Adversity forces growth and we would be stupid to resist it.
We are going to grow adult bodies no matter what we do.
Stress on bones makes them stronger.
In one year astronauts in the zero gravity of misnamed orbital “Space Station” (it is not really in space) suffer bone degeneration so severe that it takes them decades to recover to the point where they will not break a leg playing soccer.
Challenges are good.
Without them we do not grow into mature adults.
Unless we are challenged to walk we will never attempt it.
Walking itself is an act of constantly correcting for imbalance.
Yet adults do it.
Unless we believe that reading is enjoyable we will never bother to learn.
Think about the most pathetic person you know.
That one person who has no ambition.
He is poor, stupid, has no friends, can’t keep a job, will not accept advice, and you gave up on helping him long ago. You dread his presence because he is needy like a child.
He is a taker. He is a child trapped in a man’s body. Everybody knows it.
His nickname is probably “Mooch.”
He always feels sorry for himself.
You know one.
We all know at least one.
His type is increasing in number.
His parents are the Nanny State.
Adults do not need nannies.
They do not need a mother to kiss their boo-boos.
Dwelling on your ouchy is what children do.
If allowed to, those people will keep doing it until mommy dies of old age.
It is a good thing for them governments are immortal.
There was a time when nobody relied on government to secure his happiness.
Those were the days of wooden ships and iron men.
That was the old normal.
As our lives have become easier we have degenerated.
Between microwaved burritos, video games, narcotics, welfare checks and automobiles, (all these things which were designed to bring us happiness) we have become, instead, bi-polar, suicidal, weak, and foolish as a species.
I think we can all agree we are in the worst shape of our existence (in every way).
Dr. Phil will encourage you to make yourself more comfortable.
Search for your happiness.
He will tell you to do this by removing annoying people from your life instead of being challenged by them.
He does not want you to walk.
He wants you to remain a toddler.
His advice is to remove the sharp edges from your furniture and get better parents or better friends.
Cults tell you to push out people that weigh you down too (usually people outside the cult).
Cast off your difficulties. Avoid unacceptable people and situations. They could not possibly be in your life for your benefit so you can grow into a stronger adult.
Baby might get hurt while learning.
If all that does not work your doctor can prescribe Prozac™ to level out your distress and flatten the curve.
Anything but grow up.
Sure Phil's advice seems to say “Grow up” but, let’s face it, if it worked we would all know it. Social media would declare it. He could roll out success stories and we would all be buying his books. But it doesn’t work because of the one major flaw.

THE INFINITE LOOP and
CIVILIZATIONAL AMNESIA
THE DEATH OF A REPUBLIC
GIVES BIRTH TO THE PHOENIX OF EMPIRE
The Republic known as the United States of America died a long time ago.
The USA Empire swallowed it.
The empire is now collapsing.
How do empires fall?
There are 2 kinds of people in an empire.
The first group is the bitter clingers -those that love the empire.
Who? the evil democrats? No.
Those are the wrong parameters.
It is those who live off the fat of the spoils of the empire.
For example: Slave labor.
Some people love cheap clothes.
Cheap computers, phones, food, fuel, toys, are abundant in our empire.
The empire we live in is not really a country, it is a criminal organization disguised as a syndicate of multinational corporations further disguised as a “democracy.”
All the treasures the empire imports from its conquered and exploited territories like the computer you are typing on right now is the result of both slave labor and exploited resources from people and lands far away.
Sometimes the slaves commit suicide they are so damn happy.
We all know it.
They sew our clothes.
As we get fatter we need bigger and bigger pants.
They make them for us in sweatshops.
Probably, they occasionally hold up the XXXXL pants and say to themselves, “My how much food these Americans have that they need such large pants!” “That revolution 250 years ago really paid off!”
Others living in the empire hate it and feel guilt.
This is the other group.
So you see, by indulging in all these luxuries you are actually in the same group as the oligarchs. We are enabling them. We are accomplices and accessories to their crimes.
Where do you think they make all the dildos and vibrators and rubber suits?
Offshore.
In sweatshops staffed by poor children.
Everyone in the world is witness to our decadence.
Do you think they will cry when our empire disintegrates?
The merchants of the earth may weep in the hour Babylon falls but the slaves will be freed that very same hour! It will be a great day of celebration around the world. But for the powerful and the bitter clingers there will be great sorrow. “Where will we get our clothes and cheap gadgets if there are no slaves?”
Let them eat cake.
Empires don’t just fall; they get scrapped, salvaged and shipped off to new empires.
What is left is garbage for future archeologists to explore.
We often refer to certain countries as third world. Have you ever stopped to contemplate what this term means? If there is a third world then there must also be a first and second world somewhere. Where are you right now? Most people believe they must live in the first world – as far away from the 3rd world as possible (since all the pilfered resources make their way here) – but this is not the case.
Let me explain.
Examples of the1st world are Italy, Greece, Babylon, and Egypt. These were once great empires. They ruled the world and, like us, imported/exploited their neighbors’ wealth, resources, and enslaved people. Then one day their empires collapsed.
Look at them now.
Babylon is a wasteland desert.
In the mighty Egypt the pyramids need more than a paint job.
Greece is a basket case economy and has been for SEVERAL THOUSAND YEARS.
Italy is run by organized crime, bribes, graft, corruption, murder, theft and adulterated olive oil. The crime lords openly run the country. The church there is possibly the most corrupt religion in the history of the planet. Hundreds of years after the fall of its empire the people of Italy are hopelessly ensnared in a perpetual crime matrix. Have you ever heard the Pope mention the mafia? From the most holy to the most lowly the country is broken.
1st world people live among ruins.
You live in the 2nd world.
The 3rd world is just a euphemism for the currently exploited parts of the globe. They call it the developing world to obscure this. It is not developing. It will not have its turn at being an empire. The dictionary name game that empire plays is a Ponzi scheme.
