RE: As Predicted, Violence Blasts the US After Trump’s Election - and This Is Just the Beginning

in #money8 years ago

I may be a fool for saying thing but i was reading through the comments and saw everyone ranting and raving about people being republicans and democrats. Why would anyone in their right minds want to put a title on themselves and wear that around? You people are crazy!!! Oh and by the way, why in sam hell would you need governors and tutors overlord over you? Trump, Billary, or mickey mouse, all the same in my book.....You all need someone to LORD over you because you can't run your own lives yourselves and you need guidance. Think about it and maybe it'll make sense. Oh and by the way, in my opinion, if you keep your nose off of the news for any length of time, you will damn near instantly become smarter, but just to keep on what's happening around the globe just look at the headlines once in awhile so you know what's going on. Riots or not, if it doesn't directly affect you, then what business do you have sticking your nose in it and getting all upset over it. People are crazy, that's all i have to say.

Sort:  

I was curious as to what country you live in. I don't know of any country that does not have politicians, police, governors, senators, parliament, or some other form of "lords."

It also doesn't matter if people can run their own lives or not. Politicians and people in power positions have always existed and always will. Whether or not people need them is up to the individual as far as I'm concerned.

Most people don't really know what people in power actually do, so they don't know whether or not they need them or not.

If you are advocating for anarchy, well, that's a nice idea, but in this violent world it would never work anywhere.

I actually live in America, as one of the people. I know that they have police and politicians and everything set up, saying that i know why people are out in the streets protesting. It's because the free train is going to end and the people who are doing the rioting know it. I've come to the conclusion that there is a happy medium for me to participate in the "system". I know that i can either use my person or person's or stay private. I know where i stand. I also know that if i ask something from someone that they can have a say in whatever i do. I ask nothing so i expect nothing. Here's the problem.... people have become so dependant on relying on the "government" to create the world that they live in that they might have to do it themselves and they don't even know where to start. And i'm wondering how saying any of this would lead to anarchy? I know this though.
Let me say this....I talked to a monk one day earlier this summer at a catholic church, was telling him what i thought and his answer to me was this. If the people out there in the world knew that if they knew that they didn't have to do any of what they are doing and knew it was a hogwash, it would be over. If the people knew that they could stop chasing money and keeping up with the Jone's and chasing the "American Dream" then the system would collapse and the truth would come out that it was all B.S. and they didn't have to do it. One way or another the way we are doing it is going to change wether forcefully or not, and nothing i will ever do will have any impact on that, but rather this dream everyone is chasing is unsustainable so it will eventually take care of itself.
I ask this question to you and all that see this. What will you do? There is a new world coming and will you embrace it or do you still like the old analog world? I know most don't know what i'm referring to but wether you know it or not they welcomed in a new online world, where you have a username. This username is who you are in the new world and that will create a seperation between who you are online and when you log off. There is no seperation out here in the analog world, so that's what the powers that be are trying to accomplish. How can i be a @gmail account name? There will be a clear seperation.
This isn't a cut and dry discussion at all, no straight answers to any of this, and everybody's views are different. I've made a total change from when i was slaving for money and when i thought that more stuff would make me happy, that i was chasing the wrong things that didn't really make me happy after all. Their looking for dreamers, will you be someone who can ask the question what can i do for you and what's not in it for me? We're entering a brave new world and most won't know what to do.

In a way we are a lot alike.

I learned a long time ago as well that working for someone else to build their business while I barely got by was certainly not the way I wanted to live my life.

I also came to the realization some 10 years ago now that most people were slaving away at 2 or even 3 jobs at a time so they could acquire more material things. For instance, they could work at one job for 40 hours a week and support themselves and their family just fine, but they had to pick up that second job and work another 20-30 hours per week so they could keep up with their neighbors and acquire more stuff. They foolishly believe that "stuff" is going to bring them happiness.

Meanwhile, they hardly see their family, friends, and loved ones because they are so obsessed with getting more material things and also more status; a bigger house, a better car, a job promotion, etc.

After a while when all of this new stuff doesn't make them happy, they finally realize that the real key to happiness is the simple things in life, watching your child get their first goal or hit, celebrating your marriage anniversary, etc. Usually, by this time it's too late.

People that have realized this early in their life are blessed. However, I also believe that the government doesn't want people to come to this realization. The government wants you to believe that you absolutely NEED them to live, when in fact, we really don't need them at to govern our lives. The government is actually supposed to be serving us and carrying out our will. I believe that in modern society it is the complete opposite. They wish to divide us so they can control us. Sadly, they are achieving this in a very swift and efficient manner.

I'm quite sure that the founding fathers of the United States would be completely ashamed if they were alive to see what's going on this country today. I'm sure that this is not what they intended when they crafted the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
