Dear Reader (‘I know you are more than a reader!’) …. Dear Friend:
Thank you for being here. I hope you enjoyed new year celebrations. Here we go, according to our calendar, one more time around the Sun.
This is not directed at anyone in particular, no one in this space or another, but is taken from ideas I have felt very strongly about for years. “Strongly”. LOL. I hope no one minds this strong opinion, expressed with love for all, and for the new year. I wrote it after watching a video in which Herr Drumph encouraged President Zalinsky to ‘give up’ and settle with Russia, and then proceeded to talk about the “Russia hoax”….
People will not stop pretending that the brain is not in charge—in the healthy and the unhealthy—until they are forced to learn this unequivocal fact in various hard ways (many of which have been displayed before us for years, now), because such people want to be able to blame, but in the cases where they do not accept neuroscience and actual personal experience (were they to just stop, learn, think and observe themselves), they will do the most damage–so they, themselves, will be the ones blameworthy–if anyone is—for electing insane men and women.
Trump is insane; in the least… clinically provable to be a pathological sociopathic narcissist. If you — you (or we) — put a man like that — in power, politics won’t fix it, for a long--long and uncomfortable, degrading, damaging time…. because he brings with him a disease of others who are like him — to be in power. This is why Plato didn’t trust democracy….
The average person is uneducated, ignorant of ideas, facts, insights necessary to keep politics sane and virtuous — and will elect dangerous, unethical and insane people, like Trump, or weak people — of low moral strength. Most people are of low moral strength; that is why only a select few types of men and women should be considered worthy of governance and public representation. It is an abysmally stupid fallacy that anyone can do it.
We don’t get to disagree with this; it has happened many times before. History is a tale of unethical men and women in power and the bloodshed and ruin that they cause. Who cares if they build a library or a bathhouse–or slap their monkey name on a stone wall. It means nothing.
A leader must not be an authoritarian, or you don’t have democracy; you have the animal kingdom among men and women unfit for moral guidance–who poison the people.
When will you learn? Could it be today–that you lower your guard, kill your seething ego, as I have, and embed these solid facts into your mind, like a religion, humbly–and pass them on as a duty–for the betterment of humanity and the reduction of suffering?
Be well, and please take this to heart and action.
