The greatest carnage of any Dark Age or failing system is that of the peoples psychologies. These are real, living beings who have unlimited potential but choose less. They die along with the system they thought could provide them life. Do you know that the united states has the highest public ratio of prisoners to free citizens the world have ever seen? Slavery never ended. It slowly become everybody. Did you know about 90% of those prisoners are in for nonviolent crimes, about 80% of which are victimless? Victimless crimes are crimes that havent hurt anybody. We have some of the weakest people humanity has ever produced. More than half a million people are in prison right now serving out sentences for crimes that most people know are not crimes. And the people that dont know they arent crimes, have simply never chosen to think about it. Laws in their initial concept are: if we write down the behavior that people nd unacceptable to the degree that it will rouse them to violence, then everybody has a better chance of knowing what is unacceptable, and less violence will result. When used this way, the law is a direct reection and formalization of an already existing moral code that people live by and self-enforce. The essential problem with law is when people start viewing it backwardswhen rules are enforced because they are written down. As soon as the change occurs, people lose their sense of self-enforcement, and their own moral self-code. They refer to laws as right without thinking, and having made it easier to be right without thinking, laws let people lose the ability to think. Written laws, though started to reect moral behavior, simultaneously make it easier to survive without having personally developed moral clarity. The reference point has moved from internal to external. True morality begins at love for life. The choices you make are to adorn and honor your experience of life. An individual morality gained from laws is a morality based

Laws say to give up your weapons, your drugs, your privacy. These laws tell you that you are too inferior to be allowed to have themthat you are too inferior to seriously live. A law-based morality sees life as dangerous, and therefore must be stripped of everything diverse, freeing, and uncertain about it. In a law-based morality, fear grows uninhibited until an ideology of terror subsumes all else: Terrorism. Terrorism is the premier reason why we will sacrice everything we love about life in order to be protected from fear. History is not something that happens to peopleit is the activity of people. In every moment, in every decision and gesture, we make our culture, our life stories, our world, and we declare the strength or weakness of our I. We either take this responsibility for this ourselves, or we ascribe it up to something higher and better than ourselves. Movie executives who produce the movies and music we listen to and watch, politicians who write the laws we follow, bankers who control the businesses we need, and priests who tell us what God is like. In a society which glories their power and our passivity, all thought which challenges this passivity is thoughtcrime. Free life is a tribute to that transgression. Freedom and self-determination; unfear and self-love are the impossible keys that have unlocked imprisoned human minds for centuries. You are the most glorious being the universe has ever produced. Fear is the only thing holding you back from innity. The idol of fear must be faced in order to end the indenite self-mutilation of humanity. Nazis were replaced by Communists were replaced by Terrorists. We still invade their countries to slaughter them by millions and rebuild their cultures and civilizations in our own image. The holocaust never ended. It slowly became everybody.

War
People have always objected to the results of war, but they have never objected to the cause: There is one cause of war: it makes people normally restricted by fear, feel alive. Weak people have no fucking idea what adventure, risk, and achieving your deepest values is like. They sell their souls to stupid little substitutes like getting loud and drunk, or getting into a jealous rage over a girl they just met six months ago. They watch cheap movies and get laid or get high. War makes you feel alive. The moral clarity is easy. Youre on the good side because youve done nothing wrong. The bad people are nonpeople, theyre not like you. So its easy to write o the fact that their own lives, their families, and their childrens psyches being forcibly mutilated by an invasion that you pay for and morally support as being nothing worth consideration. The less you experience real life in your actual lives, the more you thirst for the ease of blood and war in order to feel real. You erupt into militant slogans with thousands of other people and cheer wildly for the military leader and the nation. Its entertainment. Something you pay for, like going to a movie theater. Its a type of entertainment that only the most cold, sadistic, and manipulative politicians are able to provide. And thats why youve never stopped electing them. People have always objected to the results of war, but they have never objected to the cause. You are the cause.

I have not come into this world to make men better, but to make use of their weaknesses. -- Adolph Hitler Our power does not draw upon liberty or justice. It is established on the destruction of the individual will. -- Vladmir Lenin The truth is that men are tired of Liberty... Liberty is no longer the virgin, chaste and great, to be fought for. We have buried the putrid corpse of liberty... and the people are a race of sheep. -- Benito Mussolini Lurking beneath the surface of every society, including ours, is the passionate yearning for a nationalist cause that exalts us, the kind that war alone is able to deliver. It reduces and at times eases the anxiety of individual consciousness. We abandon individual responsibility for a shared, unquestioned communal enterprise. -- War Is A Force That Gives Us Meaning, by Chris Hedges

There is such a thing as a temporary reset. There is such a thing as a stop-and-lookaround to see where you are and where you've come. And there is such a thing as a choice. Forgetting is a single choice, always. Most people will choose to never again remember. Others will realize who they truly are, and there is nothing you can do to stop that chain reaction. Tick off the possibilities. Open all doors. Honor and accept your life.
