Reflections - Controlled forms of expression in Society

Internet cafes in Greece are full of expression. It is only a game they say, but when at the top of your lungs you scream at an animated picture in front of you at what point does it become attached to your emotional body? It's taken me a long time to get used to this. I only use internet at these cafes and sometimes it's intense.

"Malaka!"

"Suck my dick!"

"Fuck off!"

"Ahh, malaka!"

Endless repetition of these phrases and more (rarely are they more creative). I liken it to the same energy I experience when sitting in a bar and there is a football game. These controlled forms of expression in society allow for two things: consumerism and the safety of expressing otherwise toxic or malevolent energy in a collective group that is approved by society.

One thing to keep in mind for those that wish to reset society and bring the current order of things down is: how will you replace these mediums that keep this energy in check. It is argued, one creates the other - which came first the chicken or the egg. Or: how will you wean the collective off addiction to these practices.

In times past it was the gladiators and the Colosseum.

This was yet another bin to put this energy in, so that the populace would not direct it at the rulers, who were rightly fucking them up the arse.

So, do we have a clear model of how to make a new society work, not based on war, greed or competition? If we don't, well we must. We must consider seriously what is really going on in society. Everything that has a box to go in, in present society will need a box to go in, in new society.

Consider this.
