the WORD which is unexamined is not worth READING
I never cease to be totally astonished by the huge amount of
absolute bullshit that goes on in the world especially on the internet and
particularly on sites like Facebook.
Does anyone, and I mean ANYONE ever ever stop to think? I
mean just to fucking think.
Many of the statements posted on there at times are mind-boggingly
stupid and UTTER BULLSHIT.
There is no proof, evidence or remote rationality to back up
the shit that comes out of some 'mouths' sometimes.
Life and the Universe having a will, being entities and
other bullshit defying all the laws of randomness.
Statements impossible to prove or to back up are accepted as
"gospel" truth and swallowed hook, line, and sinker.
Too many examples to quote but I should start to make a
collection.
Bottom line is QUESTION EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING. It
is your given right and duty even.
Do not accept any statement at face value, no matter how
wise or 'cute' it sounds at first.
Question MOTIVES and PROFITS, and especially
PROVENANCE.
WHO said it and WHY!
WHO? WHY? WHEN? WHAT? WHERE and HOW?
Here is an example often overlooked.
W5 is a custom
marketing research practice. We focus on answering who, what, when, where and
why people relate to products, services, and brands.
I mean FOR FUCK SAKE why oh why does everything HAS to be
about money and capitalism and materialism.
Countries COUNTING the COST of illness and suicide in
FUCKING DOLLAR$ $IGN$?
At other times it is a serious segment on local so-called
news commentated by someone who PROFITS from the situation? Why bother? I mean
why don’t you just tell us you are a whore to start with? I’ll tell you why
because whores are much more honest than most of these vicious snakes anyway.
I wish I could bring thousands more of example but it would
defeat the purpose.
The purpose is that YOU have to think for yourself.
YOU have to question EVERYTHING for YOUR OWN SELF.
Without turning in some fucked up paranoid conspiracy
theorist do not take ANYTHING at face value and always always follow the money
trail.
Money talks and BULLSHIT walks. Profits are most of the time synonymous with lies.
Le
secret des grandes fortunes sans cause apparente est un crime oublié, parce
qu'il a été proprement fait.
·
The secret of great
fortunes without apparent cause is a crime forgotten, for it was properly done.
·
A variant, "Behind
every great fortune there is a great crime," has appeared as a
quotation of Balzac; but it may have originated in a paraphrase in The Oil Barons: Men of Greed and Grandeur (1971)
by Richard O'Connor, p. 47: "Balzac maintained that behind every great
fortune there is a great crime."
Also BEWARE of numbers and statistics.
To throw a number like YOKO just did is devious and
deceiving.
To
say that
Over 1,057,000 people have been killed by guns in the USA since John Lennon was shot and killed on 8 Dec 1980. An average of 31,537 people are killed by guns in the USA every year. We are turning this beautiful country into a War Zone. Together, let's bring back America, the green land of Peace.
The death of a loved one is a hollowing experience.
Is highly deceptive and LEADS the
average person to ASSUME that most of these deaths are homicides like John
Lennon was.
Some other numbers deny these by
the way leaving 17,500 to 23,000 yearly deaths to ‘explain’.
But the propagandist, publicity
hungry and greedy front person doesn’t really bother with explaining and yes
the death of a loved one is a hollowing experience but it certainly does not
leave one with an unbiased and balanced point of view.
One only has to stand in a court of law to witness this fact.
I hope you burn in hell and so on when thousands of others have been killed every day, some children by your own government, and you don’t give a single flying fuck about them now do you?
Justice for All?
Yeah right!
Relatives wasting their lives
away making sure that their hatred is propagated and that their criminal who killed their
relatives remains behind bars and never get parole. Sour and ruined Tate sister comes to mind
here.
My Justice is no justice at all.
Naming too many examples would be
offending to some but here is one anyway.
“Sometimes you just have to stop worrying, wondering
& doubting. Have faith that things will work out, maybe not how you
planned, but just how they’re meant to be.”
FOR FUCK SAKE AGAIN! What the
fuck is all this and what the fuck do you think it “MEANS” altogether. Cheap
words like faith and “meant to be” are delusionary when life is nothing but
randomness. A “snake eyes” is not
anymore meant to be than a seven really or in fact maybe a seven is MORE “meant to be” than a snake eyes from a
probability’s point of view and always remember that the house ALWAYS win and
there is a perfectly good rational and mathematical reason for that.
It is all bullshit and a “mean
nothing saying” posted by the same people who read the National Enquirer, the
Daily Mail, forward chain letters, stand at Walmarts and watch soap ops all day
while reading other trashy magazines.
It is one of the ‘tragedies’ of
this Facebook we love to hate. Mass numbing par excellence.
Why is it so hard to think and
question everything I will never know but to me it seems the only logical way
in this tortuous world which brings me
back to another tortuous being and saying: Max Ehrman’s Desiderata.
Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is
full of trickery.
I’d phrase this one a
bit differently changing business for daily (again not everything is about
money)
But some of the rest
of his stuff, as attractive and cute and spiritual as it wants to sound at
times, is ALSO Utter Bullshit.
You are a child of the universe, no less than the
trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
Puhlease! Child of the
universe!?!?!?!? RIGHT????? Come ONNN!
And whether or not it is
clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Says Who? By what proof? What Evidence? How do YOU know?
What is your Epistemological Substantiation on this?
And furthermore and subsequently where the fuck did you fish that one?
What hat did it come from?

Therefore be at peace with
God, whatever you conceive Him to be,
Here we go again, the
foundation of every Anonymous group in THE WORLD.

The so devious wording
that does NOT ALLOW you NOT to have a
god and not conceive one. What trashy evil lure that was. What crap that is still prevailing in so many
thoughts today. Devious! Devious! Devious! What a Diabolical Trap that one is, and
a clever one I might add.
Hard to think BEYOND this one innit?
It makes it almost embarrassing to even QUESTION it.

Read at all cost but THINK and QUESTION every single letter
at all times.
Walt Whitman seems to have been the last apostle of good
sense at times.

dismiss that which insults your soul.”

Your quote from Whitman asks for people to be alert for what 'offends the soul.' Good advice, if you have one. I will take soul to mean moral development. There are few people who are 'concerned with the principles and values that make for a good society'. Where good society might emphasize basic rights and the democratic processes that give everyone a say. There is a severe lack of empathy and this is not being nurtured or developed.
ReplyDeleteThis was an interesting blog, and once again, you have reminded me that 'cynics are the true lovers of humanity'
Unfortunately, being a cynic, deconstructing society, and then reconstructing it, is deemed as negativity. I am constantly being accused of this.
Donna
yes soul is a complex word kind of as it means at its basis air, wind, breath. which is the substance of life really. Personality could also be synonym of soul.
DeleteAs for empathy not being nurtured I think the jury is still out on that Nature vs Nurture dilemna. I, myself, seem to conclude that nurture is helpless and hopeless in many despite what Pavlov and his dogs might have had to say about that. :)
So YOBS seem to be 'unnurturable' basically. Untamable savage and barbarian nature. Maybe I should watch "trading Places' again. :) Just a few had a rare vision it seems at time: Whitman, Santayana, and a few respectable others whose name escape me at the moment. O well all of this is all absurd and quite irrelevant in the end I guess but one has to keep occupied while one can , whole one has breath/spirit/soul
