This! Once you become a person you can easily be co-opted by every sort of domineering mind and people-set. Just like any other organism or animal. It might seem strange, but people, who certainly are superficially human, are changed by their membership — putative or real — in groups. Groups reprogram people for their own ends, to a greater or lesser degree, but almost invariably in a number of ways that, once established, desire their own continuance, so to speak. When a person becomes a member of some way of knowing or other, or some group or corporation, this really gets in the way of their humanity, because it utterly distorts the fundamental definitions by which we live and understand our waking lives. The single obvious focus is clear: it is the definition of progress, which is simultaneously presented as the reason for our unity and the reason for itself. In short, a circular, self-consuming lie. But a powerful one because it it forms the very purpose of our assembly as a group. This is our organizing principle. Such power is practically unquestionable, and it is extremely unhealthy, as nearly everyone knows, to engage in such questionings. Agencies, administrations, organizations, ‘the’ church, Science, ‘The Doctors’ — Experts and Judges, Juries and finally ‘the other’ — these are the source of the ominous ‘they’ that haunted us in childhood, and which we later joked about. But we should have stayed with the question, because the answers we settled on were not only wrong, they were deadly. These are nonhuman organizations manned by humans who think that, just because they woke up human in the morning, they stay that way automatically no matter what sort of mischief or overt mayhem they engage in. Literally. Once ‘agented’ by the appropriate collective (and sometimes even before this), these people will do –anything- under the auspices of duty or profit (and this becomes exacerbated by group size, vitality, etc.) and largely without much concern for the ethical, human, or even planetary outcomes. None. wondercloud.wordpress/2010/07/30/free-energy-to-silence-earth-forever/
