“Evil isn’t the real threat to the world. Stupid is just as destructive as Evil, maybe more so, and it’s a hell of a lot more common. What we really need is a crusade against Stupid. That might actually make a difference.”
~ Jim Butcher, Vignette

I almost hesitate to write this, but why? Will it offend people? Of course it will, because weak and stupid people are easily offended. They are easily offended because their brains do not function properly, and because they have allowed others to dictate how and what they are to think, say, and ‘feel.’ In order to avoid being stupid, one must first learn to rely on self, questioning everything, being honest, accepting facts and truths, all based on individual research, observation, and study. But from birth, the opposite approach is accepted, and the will of others (the State) becomes primary in all development, as should be completely obvious once one figures out what ‘schooling’ is all about; especially all ‘public’ (government) schooling, and most all other options as well.
Think about it; every school strives to reach the objective of passing as many imprisoned students as possible, this made mandatory, especially in the West, before gaining the sought-after funding stolen from everyone in order to build these mind-destroying schools. This allows administrators and the ‘teaching’ staffs to be paid monetary rewards for pushing state agendas, nationalism, and lies. This has the effect of training to the lowest common denominator, or in other words, the lowest level possible. They (so-called educators’?) are all trained to do as they are told, and continue that blind-minded trend every ‘teaching’ generation; thereby advancing stupidity by stealth, much of the time without even knowing that what they are doing is wrong. When young people are taught (indoctrinated) to believe instead of to question and think, when they are dumbed down to the point of the lowest possible degree, the entire system becomes the enemy of freedom and the destroyer of individual intellect. The result is collectivism, which relies on the premise of mass stupidity.
Considering the questions, censorship, and pushback I get for truth-telling, it is brutally obvious that this State tactic has worked perfectly to dampen the real intelligence of the majority of society, while at the same time promoting group acceptance of mediocrity. This is certainly what the promotion of ‘diversity’ is all about; which is only a strategy, like ‘schooling,’ of mass control. In this country, hate is not actually based on anything the State claims, but is totally based on division intentionally promoted by those in power. Actually, this so-called hate claimed to be about race, ethnicity, culture, and political preference, is nothing more than a ruling class plot to fool the fools into believing that everyone is ‘equal,’ and therefore the race to the bottom instead of individual intellect is realized. In an authentic free society, excellence is sought by all, and achieved by a larger percentage, leading to a much more harmonious, caring, sympathetic, and charitable existence, where living together and getting along is natural.
Another aspect of complaint or pushback I receive, comes from those who wish to take no blame for their lot in life, and who do not want to accept any personal responsibility for their own enslaved existence. When I point out that the problems faced by the masses are their own fault for allowing themselves to be ruled, they take it personally, instead of questioning their weakness and voluntary acceptance of false authority. Instead of acting like responsible thinking adults, they seek to place all blame on others. It is the ‘evil’ ones, you see, who are doing this to them; they have no say in the matter, and they want to believe that they have no power to help themselves. The voting scam is a perfect example of this insane attitude, because all those who vote are openly relying on some piece of scum politician to take care of them, and make all decisions for their lives. This is the master/slave relationship that most all accept from birth, rather than depending on self-reliance and self-rule.
Each of us is responsible for our own existence, and the consequences of our actions or inactions are what drives our lives, good or bad. Freedom can only exist when each individual claims his freedom in order to protect his own sovereignty. It is not the responsibility of any other to solidify your position in life, it is strictly up to each and every individual to take and hold onto his own liberty. Expecting some ruling force, or any other to protect your freedom for you, is illegitimate and asinine, and is also only the want of a pathetic and willing slave. To not accept blame for your own sorry existence is a major flaw in character, and is the impetus that permits (allows) one man or many to lord over and control you. This is why many find it tolerable to place blame on government for its actions, but it is never legitimate to blame that same government without attempting individually and en masse to eliminate that ruling evil by not consenting to your own rule.
You, all of you, have been taught since the beginning to accept the unacceptable; which is that you cannot function or control your own lives without a master class called government to rule over and control you. This is total insanity, and rests on the psychotic notion that you are not an individual, but just a part of the useless majority who have become the epitome of stupidity to such an extent as to ‘believe’ that you are the lesser human, the sludge of humanity, and your masters are your overlords and guardians of life. In fact, they are all just simple humans, and the literal worst of mankind, so why would you ever allow these cretins to guide and dominate you?
All things promoted by the State are detrimental to the advancement of humanity, so keeping people stupid is the perfect solution for those seeking power over others so as to retain their dominant position of command over the many. Once again, the fault lies with each individual, all of you, who allow such a pathetic belief to consume your mind. Sovereignty and freedom come at a price, and are not natural rights. Your life is your natural right, but to live and prosper, to protect it, and to keep it, is your responsibility alone. Each has to come to this conclusion if any collective liberty is ever to survive.
Reliance on authority, any authority, is the bane of humanity, so why do so many flounder in the face of personal responsibility? Is this a natural human trait, or is it due to an intentionally planned outcome based on the fact that most all humans are trusting, stumbling, gullible fools who expect the best without effort? Either way exposes extreme weakness, and is pitiful and self-destructive. It does not have to be this way, but so long as it is, stupidity will reign, and the majority will continue to await a completely unknown ‘saving’ after death; all while wasting the only real life known to man.
“For at least two thirds of our miseries spring from human stupidity, human malice and those great motivators and justifiers of malice and stupidity, idealism, dogmatism and proselytizing zeal on behalf of religious or political idols”
~ Aldous Huxley, Complete Essays, Vol. I: 1920-1925
