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.
