I was drinking some alcohol last night, and I decided to do some ranting. The following is what I wrote, and I am going to attempt some editing while I type it out.
"You are wrong," he declared without doubt. "The future shall attest to the error of your misguided thinking."
The echo of reason resonated throughout history, yet it was always squashed by those in power. Until those who were considered the dredges of society rose from their lowly positions to right the wrong. Unfortunately, society never learned from the past, because there were always wrongs to make right.
There were always echoes, because there were always those who fought against reason for the sake of power that was misused. To taste power meant that wrongs had to be made to seem right, in order for the hierarchy to remain.
It has been stated that order cannot be possible without a hierarchy, yet it has also been proven that order is always disrupted because the hierarchy believes it knows what is best for society. If society has been continuously rising up against the hierarchy throughout history, then it is apparent that the hierarchy is either always corrupt because of power or absolutely useless.
Hierarchy, those in power who think they know what is best for those whom they rule, is both useless and corrupt. There is the misconception that order cannot be maintained without at least someone, or multiple someones with a particular agenda in mind, in charge of how society should be run.
Another misconception is that people left to their own devices, without a ruling factor to inform them of how to behave, will act out toward society and become anarchic. The truth is that society is perfectly capable of maintaining order with the absence of an outdated, primitive hierarchal mindset. People are capable of behaving and adhering to morality without a higher power, or higher societal member, overseeing everyone.
Murderers, psychopaths, and sociopaths, those who are not typical adherents to normalcy, are not going to be any better or worse for or lack thereof the fallible hierarchy. Humanity will always be fallible, and the misconception is that society somehow becomes better because of the hierarchy. People will be bad because they are bad, but the majority of people will be good because it is common sense that our survival rate is better when we treat others as we wish to be treated.
Argumentum ad populum. There is nothing worse than the majority informing a subjective world that it knows what is best for everyone. The claim that society only thrives with someone in charge is a false concept. Whenever the majority thought something was best for everyone, there was always a minority to point out that it was being treated unfairly. The dispute has always been fairly understood, maybe a very long time after it was first brought to the attention of everyone, but eventually, and I do want to focus on the word eventually, humanity finally understood that the minority really was human.
As though being human could be disputed, but never place anything past the hierarchy to undermine something so long as it receives support from the majority that wants everything its selfish way.
There are three types of people who want to control the world, and sadly the three have basically coalesced into a single organism. Hierarchal power, religious power, socioeconomical power.
Those in power want to remain in power because power corrupts. The more that power corrupts, the longer those in power want to remain there. Anyone who has been pitted against power knows the feeling of being dejected, yet they remain in power. Why?
The why of it is simple. Those in power remain in their positions because of ignorance from the majority. Yes, most people abhor being called ignorant. Get over it. If one is voting for the power to continue ensuring that humanity does not progress beyond the hierarchy, then ignorance is absolutely a factor.
The other form of ignorance leads directly from religion. Sure, see it as persecution, because goodness knows that religious people never get their way in this country. The religious people have more control in this country than they should be allowed, because goodness forbid that the constitution mean anything in preserving one's rights.
Once the hierarchy and, incidentally tied to it, religion is removed from disrupting true peace, only then can we see a remarkable change in society for the better.
The real problem is that which we always ignore and continually make excuses for, because goodness forbid that anyone push against that which they have been conned into believing is comfortable.
Not everyone is comfortable. Were black slaves comfortable while white slave owners were comfortable? Are same-sex couples comfortable being forbidden to legally marry while heterosexual couples are comfortable being able to marry?
Think on it.
Think on it some more.
The answer is no.
So what is the problem? Seriously, what is the problem?
Are we going to continually ignore that which is common sense just so that the hierarchy and the religious agenda can control all aspects of our lives?
The answer to that should obviously be no.
Therefore, why do we continually repeat the past? What is wrong with us? Is it not about time we become tired of the continual spiel of human rights being denied? Is it not about time we become tired of religion falsifying the truth for its own benefit?
I do state it is time that the majority stopped being so ignorant. There is that word again. Yes, it should be used. When it is no longer needed, then we can confirm that society has met its true purpose. Until that purpose is met, echoes will make their way from generation to generation.
Only once the echoes have ceased can we truly state society has met its purpose. When we can state with certainty that the hierarchy and the religious agenda no longer controls the obvious concept of exclusion, only then can we progress as society was truly meant to exist.
Understand that exclusion from living is inhumane. One could repeat what Jesus stated about loving one's neighbors, but has it truly done any good? Apparently not, because there are those who are excluded from living because religion divides reason from sanity.
All the good religion has done, one might state. No. Absolutely no. Any sane person knows and understands that religion has always done more harm than good. Just honestly take a look at history, because goodness knows that religion has always done more harm to society than any real objective toward perfecting it.
Unless one considers that everyone believing in the same religion is the way toward perfection.
Absurd. One, anyone, would be correct in stating such.
We should be fortunate to live in a country where freedom is recognized, though is it really?
Freedom. Does it mean a human being is denied the rights that a human being deserves? Ask, ask, and one shall receive the answer. If religion and the hierarchy denies rights to a human, then freedom is being denied in a supposedly free country. That means this is not the land of the free.
It means it is the land of the powerful hierarchy backed by a religious agenda.
End the religious hierarchy. Who can deny that is what America has become? Only those who want to remain in the comfort of cognitive dissonance.
If a real, positive change is going to happen in this country, one must realize that the past must not be dismissed. Stop dismissing the past. One is always fond of stating that one must learn from the past to avoid past mistakes, so why is it difficult to actually follow that very important advice?
Forget yourself for a moment. Yes, forget yourself because you are not the most important person in the world. None of us are, as individuals, are important.
We are only important together. As a real society that recognizes everyone as equally important we can overcome the differences that we only think separates us.
Once we understand that we are all made of emotions, yes those we ridicule and deny the freedom of living are capable of emotions, then we can realize that no single person or organization should be placed above us in order to inform us that we are inferior.
We are not inferior. None of us are.
The exact opposite can be stated for those in charge. They are not superior. We only place them in a state of superiority because of our own misgivings.
No one is more superior than anyone else, despite the saying that only the fittest survive. Guess what, that saying is antiquated. As humans, together as one group instead of separated by degrees of power, we already are the fittest on the planet.
Everything else is about sociopathy. It is about someone thinking he is better than you. He is not. He only thinks he is. You know better, and so should anyone else who has a semblance of a conscience.
No one is better than anyone else. We have become a sick society where we place importance on one individual being better than another. Sick.
Everyone is important, because to state otherwise is to state that the lives of some people are worth less than the lives of others.
No one is unimportant, but neither should man think that existence is subjective.
Morality is subjective, because we have subjectively understood that harming others is wrong, but in no way is it subjectively understood that some people should suffer because others want a perfect life.
Should those who have made perfect lives for themselves suffer because others are not as equipped or as fortunate enough to perfect such a similar life? Yes.
Yes.
Absolutely yes.
One cannot sit in comfort from one's fortune in life and expect that others deserve less.
Charity.
Yes, that is a good start.
Is it the solution?
Hardly.
Redistribute the wealth.
No one, and this is a fact, no one needs a mansion where the majority of the room within the building is never used. No one.
No one deserves more than they can use when others are suffering. Have they earned it? That is not up for dispute or discussion. Of course they have earned it, but have the poor earned to not be capable of owning a mansion because they are not attractive enough to make movies? No.
We can go back and forth about how one can get an education, but one knows the risks of college are greater than the relying on the stock market. Not everyone can realistically make great lives for themselves. And lets be honest, the famous people are hardly in the same category as realistic.
We can go back and forth on how a small percentage makes it, lives the American dream from the starting point of basically having nothing, but the fact of life is that it is not available for everyone to make something of life.
Excuses can go back and forth, because goodness knows that it has since man's first breath, but what has always been is not something anyone should be proud to state should always remain.
Yet, the way our society functions, it cannot change.
A real change means courage. It means understanding that everyone deserves a chance at survival that does not entail searching for dead ends to meet one's basic needs. As rich as our society claims to be, no single individual should have to struggle to make it from one day to the next.
What does it state for our society when we allow suffering that can easily be avoided if rich people stopped being so greedy? After all, are the millions or billions in one's bank account going to follow the person after death? Are their children going to need millions to live when the majority live on less than is sufficiently needed in a greedy society?
Stop hoarding wealth as though it means anything significant. Stop telling others how to live because your religious and hierarchal beliefs are clouding your judgement, stop hurting people because you know that you can actually do something to make the lives of everyone better.
Stop being ignorant.
I repeat, stop being ignorant.
When the ignorance stops, only then can we state that society has reached perfection.
Think about it.
Really think about it.
I know you're not.
And the horror continues.
I know, TL;DR.
