Hahah... beautiful Illusions, I'm agreeing with you.... without really agreeing at all.

Oh and also, I'd like to say that those going on and on posting about how we should overthrow the government and have violent opposition aren't the ones that concern the eyes and ears. The ones they are concerned about are the ones preaching peace, love, unity, and the power of one. I hope the eyes and ears know that, by being paranoid about things everyone should know anyway, they are being just as naive as the people shouting angrily about revolution.

At this point, the self appointed status quo police (i.e. the brainwashed masses) do just fine handling the real threats, while giving the governments and the hidden hands exactly what they want by being afraid of the naive radicals.


I think it's a little bit of both.

Peaceful people don't shoot bullets.

Some problems can only end with led.


If there were more peaceful people, more of an awareness that cooperation, tolerance, and organic justice can work if simply allowed to be and not forced to comply to some ideology (whether it be patriotism, communism, existentialism, haha), there would not be an army big enough or ruthless enough to shoot lead at and kill all of said peaceful people. Also... how many people can they kill before they have no more people to control?

The puzzle piece we are missing in this seemingly unsolvable paradoxical problem of "how do you protect life without defending it?" has been almost completely wiped away from mainstream thought processes in all countries, all religions, all organizations preaching truth and justice...

Instead, you've got something forced into the vacant space that the emptiness in the puzzle has created. A piece that doesn't really fit, but seems close enough that most people wouldn't bother to notice, after heavy conditioning of our allowed representatives of the puzzle repeating ceaselessly that the puzzle is supposed to look crooked and incomplete like this. Fear of death. What does this piece replace? It replaces contentment with just being and living and letting die. It replaces the notion that we are infinite with possibility with the notion that we are finite and we must fit as much as we can into this small space, or else we fail.

What does it matter if you fail when you are dead? What does any of this matter if all we are working towards is death?

I know this doesn't seem to have much relevance to "Why do people think it's safe to post revolutionary plans on the internet?", but it does.

How? Well, why would they need to be so desperately discontent as to warrant themselves to become radically opposing a current state of things in the first place? Why would they need to try to attempt to mobilize people to concede with their will? Because they fear death, and they fear their death not meaning anything. They fear not fitting the most of whatever they consider good and just into the finite space they've been told that they have. They fear that a bright future will never come unless they restore fair balance. They feel that they have a duty of some sort to crusade against opression, and hopefully they succeed at that duty, but hopefully they are smart and compassionate about it. Either way, it's not necessary, and will most likely end up never giving them a happy life... but in the end, their life will be sacrificed in order to give others what they wished they had. Noble, indeed... but somewhat foolish, in the light of most revolutionaries' very shallow understanding of the continuation of life. You can just be, and things will eventually balance out. All depends on how much patience you have.

So, for them to post such bold statements online (I was one of those guys until rather recently) just shows their need for more patience, tolerance, acceptance, and love for all things good and bad. It all has a lesson to teach, and you can learn by simply observing it in your life.

It's all no guarantee that you won't act out of passion regardless. Passion has it's place most definitely, as does ignorance and fear and all emotions associated with it. Like I said... you can just be, and things will happen whether you force them to or not. This includes your body and brain. They will respond however they may, and it's not your duty to judge whether the action is positive nor negative, but to simply observe and ponder what has happened. Whatever the outcome of your thoughts and actions teaches you is up to you.

So yeah sure why not? Maybe it's not wise for comfort and paranoia's sake to post heated speeches about government overthrow and liberation on here... but maybe nothing is wiser at the moment for that certain person.

I know... I seem to contradict myself... first speaking of "the Illuminati" and government profiling databases... then speaking of it not really mattering...

But surprisingly, everything is a contradiction all the time.

So post away, but be careful, if you care to be full of whatever being careful means at this given moment in existence.

Dunwhich:

First let me say that I come from a place that has a long tradition of saying "To hell with Death!" when we get into the revolutionary spirit, so my position might be a bit atypical.

While your peaceful revolution idea is noble, I don't beleive it's actually attainible. Even Jesus failed at that; after he died the world, figuratively and to some literally, went to hell.

Those who are of the mindset to oppress the downtrodden respond to two things: money and power. It usually isn't practical or even possible to get their attention through monetary means, so that leaves power as the only weapon to be weilded.

As you said, take away the fear of dying meaninglessly, and powerful things happen. That was when I was getting at earlier when I said timing is everything. First of all, the people have to be ready to join in the revolution, even though it may cost them their sustinace or even physical lives, but the powers that be also have to be a) arrogant enough to overlook their own weaknesses, or to underestimate the clout of the revolution and b) at a point where conceeding to the desires of the revolutionaries would yeild a greater net gain than fighting to keep them.

There you have my two cents.

Alienseeker,

Don't let anyone fool you, even if the war is fought only with the mind, the fight is indeed real.

May I condense your post a bit, since I agree with it 100%?

If you are stupid enough to post your revolution ideas on the internet, then your revolution will probably fail anyway. So post away, we hope you get caught before you cause any unnecessary damage with your failed revolution.

Ayn Rand Man? Is that you!?

If so, let's hook you up with Incarnated in the debate forms, I don't know how many times he's told me to read that Urantia book.
