RE: That's not censorship
You write of power, yet it seems that you do not quite understand the meaning of that concept. The only power that is of any consequence is the ability to inflict death amd destruction. If you think a collection of fragmented, leaderless, ignorant muck trusting in some miracle bauble can rebel against the power of the state to unleash hell, then I advise you to reconsider.
What you and your "free" men advocate is rebellion; in rebellion, the only quality that matters is the capacity to kill, while staring your opponent in his eyes, as he begs for mercy. Can your "free" men run over humans with tanks in the morning and then sit down for an afternoon tea? Can your freedom fighters fire weapons upon women and children and then settle down comfortably for an afternoon nap? Can your information warriors bayonet pregnant women and then enjoy a nice dinner? The humanist rebellious muck ought to be grateful that their mercantile masters and populist whores are loathed to unleash the state killers upon their rebellious heads.
There are no "hapless" victims. There are those who rule and those who serve. The fact of power difference between master and slave ought to restrain any rebellious thoughts and prattle of "freedom." The true nature of men is that they are born into class and status, within which limits men serve their society and community. The constant malcontent of humanism that delude men into reaching beyond their ken will be the doom of mankind.
Again, you fail to grasp the facts. Absent creation, there is nothing to destroy. The ability to create is actual power. This failure to ascertain the reality of the universe is the basis for the rest of your misunderstanding.
Particularly this. All rule, and all serve. Neither the abject captive tormented to gain obedience fails to rule, nor the overlord commanding the torturer fails to serve, even if only themselves.
Until you grasp the factual reality extant, we will be unable to attain to rational debate on these matters. Can I force you to accept facts?
No - and this proves my point. You are free to serve whom you will. You always will be, and nothing can change that fact. When thugs with tanks can no longer ferry armed men to your door to persuade you to comply because you have built and are willing to use nominal security to prevent their approach, they will be useless to their masters.
All that prevents that security is your failure to effect it.
That's on you, and everyone, today. Most people have no idea they can be free in this way right now, but no censorship can keep this a secret forever. Everyone will choose, and choosing to be chattel will create evolutionary forces that favor those choosing freedom. Physics is the law, and the universe suffers no criminals to escape it's decrees.
The feeble wishes of sociopaths will become handicaps, and the builders of civilization will create a free world. Nothing can change this but the extinction of humanity. The power to serve yourself by creating a prosperous future is in your hands.
You will do you. Prosperity or poverty is yours to choose.
You are free.
Men do not "create," rather they borrow from already existing or "discover" aspects of the universe. Only in this mercantile dominated era will men acquiesce to claims of ideas being owned, stories being privatised, "rights" to music being possessed by a few men, or land being personal fiefdoms without any obligation towards community. The fact is that men have no "rights" to creation, since men do not create, but are granted previleges by those who can enforce their will. Such arrangements, also known as society or community, have operated since the beginning of human recollection. Yet, the humanists, in their hubris, claim that they conceptualised an arrangement superior to all the collective sum of human existence in the lunacy of anarchy and chaos.
What has the lunacy of humanism produced for the human race? Rampant consumerism destroying this planet? Sociocultural matrix based entirely on manufacturing useless and frivolous baubles? Social value system centered only on accumulating shiny thing that clink? The singular purpose of modern drones absorbing insipid entertainment? "Freedom," democracy, "human rights" have engendered the most self-destructive organised society in human history. The only quality of "freedom" is death, destruction, and misery.
The leash controlling the muck was loosened, not completely severed, and the result is our modern horrors and degeneration. Freedom is nothing more than carcinogen to the pre-cancerous growth that is the human race. Without control, the muck will devour this planet and each other. Freedom is a disease that must be cured from the human soul.
Men do create. You just used your understanding to create that paragraph, and no one granted you the privilege. You just exercised your right.
Gangs of thugs are not the only form of community, despite they certainly seem to feature of late around here. Denying better societies or your rights doesn't make any sense to me, but you do you.
Your decisions aren't going to change physics, and that is going to change society as men wrest understanding of it from their ignorance.
When you cure freedom from humanity, you will have cured the world of humanity. Thank God you won't.
Humanist utopia is nothing more than selfish, isolated, ignorant, "free" drones dying as islands unto themselves, while destroying all of creation along with them. How any rational, non-suicidal man can defend humanist lunacy is beyond my understanding. To those who pray for chaos and anarchy, any organised social system would seem like tyranny and oppression. Those who pray for dew at the edge of the desert, will bring forth the deluge. "Rights" and "freedom" will certainly turn men into beasts.
