# Voice of Treason ## Wilding Minds ### Rule followers are merciless rule enforcers +{{Rule followers are merciless rule enforcers; they are the vicious administrators of the status quo.}} {{Rule followers commonly derive their sense of superiority from following and enforcing convention, and from being right — they delight in prosecuting you with their piety and judgements.}} {{It is often the most responsible, sensible, reliable, and dependable people, who will viciously destroy your dreams and the greatness within you.}} +{{Many rule followers desperately want to be normal; the more desperate they are, the more they want to enforce their version of normal upon you.}} {{They are not actually fighting you, they are fighting themselves.}} {{They are fighting their fears against your peace.}} {{What they fear most, is who they are beneath the camouflage of normal.}} {{The covered wreckage and half felled scaffolding of who they once were before they gave-up haunts them like an inescapable shadow-self.}} {{Their suppressed and secreted crave for their own distinctiveness, is inverted and weaponized against anyone unusual, for they remind them of their profound loss of self.}} {{Anything aberrant or uncommon reminds them, that they took the easy way out, through the wide gates of normal.}} +{{Normal is a failure of imagination.}} {{Normal is an easy-going oppression.}} {{Normal is a silent violence against progress.}} {{Normal is an insidious benevolence; a sweet tool of conformity responsible for incalculable loss.}} {{Normal is the greatest constraint and coercive force in the world.}} {{If you do not feel the constant threat and ruthless pressure of normalcy bearing down on you, it is because you are a part of it; an unknowing devotee of the unremarkable.}} ### Without self-realization you are only a mirror of society, which is to say, a mirror of madness +{{In the same way every animal finds its way into a trap, people sure-footedly step toward normalcy to survive.}} {{The opposite of self-realization is being realized, or made real, by the standards of outside force or influence.}} {{If you are not creating yourself, then an imposed 'self,' is being created for you.}} {{When you are not building yourself as the creator of your own life, you are being built, into the image and likeness of your cultural creator.}} {{Without individuation, your identity is the collective.}} {{Common, conventional, mainstream, and normal — these are the states of the aborted individual; the unborn in mind, faculty, awareness, and self-knowledge.}} They are commonly called sleepwalkers, zombies, the status quo, and the masses, but in reality, it is each of us to one degree or another. {{The real question is how much of the actual you, are you ever going to experience?}} {{Experiencing yourself is your life purpose.}} {{You experience nothing, but yourself.}} {{Every so-called experience, relationship, connection, pain, passion, feeling, thought, sense, and emotion, is a sublimation of life's grand transmission upon the canvas of you experiencing yourself.}} {{If you are not steeped in the ecstasy of experiencing yourself, then you have never fully lived.}} For, t{T{he only true anxiety of life is to be severed from life, by being severed from self.}} +Anxiety is intrinsic to life because the current social construct is such a fraud. {{In order to play the fraudulent game of modern life, one must assume an unnatural and fraudulent role; the role of an anti-human.}} {{Anti-humanism comes in the form of forced structures of consistency, social protocols, and rules of emotional conduct, which are utterly alien to beings as inconsistent, momentary, emotional, and impulsive as human beings.}} {{Each person is bound tightly in a behaviorally isometric strait-jacket of contradictions; a psychic contortion that leaves the hobbled soul jittering between impossible and unnatural forms of human being.}} {{The goodly and civil role is an anti-human posture, where the wild untamed soul is splayed upon the mental rack, like medieval torture, to bend and shunt the frighteningly splendid phenomenon of a free form soul, into an unnatural state, to thereafter be called, natural. This is how we become, and live the life, of the unnatural natural.}} Alan Watts' speaks to the spirit of the unnatural natural in his "social double-blind game," of which, "the first rule of this game is that it is not a game", with further contradictory rules, such as, "everyone must play" (or else), and, "be yourself, but play a consistent and acceptable role," and "control yourself, but be natural," and, "try to be sincere." {{Our fraudulent "real life" is an M.C. Escher-like impossible staircases into higher and more peaceful states of consciousness for individuals and society, for the rules of this game, are unsolvable puzzles, that keep us all in a constant state of anxiety.}} +{{To escape our anxiety we must accept, and make peace, with the contradictions of life.}} Though not commonly considered, t{T{here are many non-fiction applications of suspension of disbelief, especially in a false world of illusions.}} {{Suspension of disbelief is a vital life skill for anyone who wants to live in the real world.}} {{By suspending disbelief we can believe in ourselves.}} We can and should b{B{egin to accept imagination as a part and form of reality, because human reality is inseparable from imagination.}} {{We can live life as broader spectrum beings, with the best qualities of children, by healing our affliction of adultism, which severed us from communing with our vast inner-child.}} Your inner-child, like the truly natural newborn; a sort of aboriginal proto-human of consciousness — unbound and god-like, is born into a cultural cocktail of sedation, constriction, and programming, often called, love. Natural curiosity and playful interface of innocence, only forgivable as a child, is what is seen in adults as hedonism, or insanity. {{The true loss of innocence is when freedom becomes shameful, and shame becomes freedom.}} {{We accept the mantel of shame in order to transition into the adult life of freedom. This is how we trade inhibition for tradition. This is how we lose ourselves.}} {{All loss of power begins with shame, and suppression of what is deemed bad in our nature.}} +{{What society hates and fears most is nature and truth, especially when observed in people.}} {{True authenticity creates a state of jeopardy and danger for that individual, forcing them to hide in resentful conformity. This is how inauthenticity creates bitterness in the individual, and ultimately in the culture.}} {{The loss of true identity creates a lifetime of pain.}} {{All human derangements and fractures begin with the loss of self — a loss no amount of grieving can heal.}} {{Numbness becomes the new life for those de-spirited by culture. They have been cultured — destroyed and reborn into the new life, where only the unnatural is desirable, for the unnatural feels safe and familiar, for they are unnatural. They have been remade in the image and likeness of falsity; their true God. But the truth aches in their forbidden places and grieves them with a nagging malaise of uncertainty and unbelonging.}} +{{The ultimate falsehood, to the great lie of the false life — is truth.}} {{Anything which points to the real and ultimate freedom is labeled profane and illicit.}} And so, bondage shall be called freedom, and falsehood called truth, and evil called good — and this inverted reality keeps the secret to your liberation hidden in plain sight; in moral certainty, where none will dare look. This is why it is important to question things and ask "why?", but most importantly, question yourself. {{Challenge yourself. Be defiant; defy yourself. Challenge authority; the authority of your own rational convictions!}} +{{Meditation can put you in touch with your less strictured and structured self; to glimpse the source of your true power and formless state.}} {{Your profane and complete self, your truth, is a disassembly of the anti-human persona, only slightly visible as you submerge through the layers of abstraction by releasing thought, as an act of wilful dissociation, toward controlled insanity.}} {{Meditation allows you to visit your aboriginal forbidden places and return with artifacts of wisdom unknown in the common culture.}} From Joseph Conrad to Joseph Campbell, this journey and return; a dipping into the dark well of consciousness, is alluded to in allegory and with great explicitness throughout all literature. {{Your consciousness is an inner portal, through which you climb, to escape yourself.}} +{{Consider the possibility that your sense of purpose has been hacked and rerouted, to empower that which seeks to suppress your true purpose.}} {{Until you receive the revelation of your power, and free yourself, you will remain both captor and captive — as your own warden, in your own prison, for the rest of your life.}} {{The world will do everything it can to seduce you to go to sleep, and if you refuse, it will then try to strangle you. To keep your innocence and faith alive you have to kick and scream and fight. You have to protect the beauty within you, and fight for it, like protecting a small child from a predator. Mediocrity and apathy is that great predator; the status quo embodied by the sleeping masses.}} ### Homo sapiens-consumere: a new species designed to shop +By bombarding each person with hundreds-of-thousands of commercial messages per year, the technocratic, consumer research scientists have created a new fork in the road of human evolution. Through generations of cradle-to-grave consumer conditioning, and lifelong intra-cerebral media-drips, the emergence of a new psychological species has arrived, the Homo sapiens-consumere. {{We have become a highly specialized species of docile, obedient consumers.}} {{We are a material goods and brands, hunter-gather society of hominids standing upright to shop.}} Science, which promised enlightenment for the future of humanity, has been hired-away by international corporations to transform human beings into subservient creatures addicted to fruitless consumerism and mindless entertainment. At the dawn of a new millennium and era, many have been disappointed to discover that even transhumanism, is less about a singularity of human consciousness or quantum evolution, and more about the quasi-cybernetic peripheral adornment of gadgets, handbags, and designer glasses. +{{Oppression never goes away; it is refashioned to be fashionable.}} {{Materialism and consumerism are sophisticated forms of shackle-less bondage.}} {{Slavery was once not only customary, but highly fashionable. Slaves were fashionable chattel property like a mule; beasts of burden, which came with bragging rights. The new slavery is materialism and consumerism — and every race is property of corporate profit.}} {{The new slavery dehumanizes all races as beasts of buying.}} {{We are all the new share-croppers working for a roof, food, and our share of the material-goods crop.}} Consumerism is our new master. {{We have been denatured and raised in hostile and completely artificial environments, where the wound we carry is the absence of deep community bonds.}} {{Our new community ties are buying-clubs, coupon circles, and discount gatherings. Our rites of passage are smartphone releases.}} {{Like Manchurian candidates, we have been made into Manchurian consumers, who subconsciously buy when we are triggered by our brand masters.}} {{Many horrors of injustice of the past were customary, so we must continually question our culture and customs, looking for what we are presently accepting of, that will be future regarded as shortsighted and unthinkable.}} Re-discover what is real and become human again. {{The greatest gifts in life are often the most simple and overlooked. Look to nature for the answers — and to your own nature — look to yourself.}} {x{The new slavery is consumerism.}} {x{Generations of cradle-to-grave conditioning and lifelong intra-cerebral media-drips have created the all-consuming human.}} {x{Science has been hired-away by international corporations to transform human beings into subservient consumers.}} {x{Transhumanism seems less about a singularity of human consciousness, and more about the quasi-cybernetic peripheral adornment of gadgets, handbags, and designer glasses.}} {x{Consumer trans-humanism is about the quasi-cybernetic peripheral adornment of gadgets, handbags and designer glasses.}} {x{The new slavery no longer dehumanizes blacks as beasts of burden, but now masters all races as beasts of buying.}} {x{The new slavery is consumerism and every race is property of corporate profit.}}
