Humans

  1. Wow, I can't look at this World and be naturally happy from what I see. Hypocrisy everywhere I look, people feeling they have to lie to protect their egos - even about something as simple as what they're saying goodbye for, violence being a mainframe for problem solving - ever notice how all the big names who were assassinated all stood for world peace and resisted government almost like government is a leading cause for such past acts of violence. Ghandi, Jesus, Martin Luther King Jr., JFK, Malcom X; and the list goes on. This has me thinking critically about our existence. One could jump to the conclusion that man is inherently evil though I don't think this is the case - it's obvious to me that the aggressive humans took the main stage and I believe, firmly, that is our big problem as a race. Fools run our world; but how? A matter of luck? Charismatic words? I don't know about you guys; but I'm sick of living in this fabricated existence and I am confident that there is something better; but how to make it better? Any ideas Blades?

    Myself, I firmly believe that we're fucked for a long time. Not to sound like a pessimist; but too many people were raised with a materialistic, consuming, mind-state and it would take a lot of reverse-coercive procedure to snap them back into reality. Second, people like I mentioned are constantly being bred and trained as I type this out. I feel like to change the way people think there needs to be a mass revolution and rebuilding of what's seen on TV and heard on the radio; the media is a carcinogenic wave of stupidity. There's just not enough intelligent people or rather, there's too much brainwashed people who have infinite potential but don't know how to use it or can't use it due to repression. Imagine media, actually teaching philosophical key points to open minds, encouraging morals and positive attitude? Imagine if we were encouraged to help our brothers and sisters instead of being the most, what's a few words used today, the most "boss" or "platinum". It's a world of shit right now, and it depresses me to no end.

    For example:

    Now maybe I have a dirty mind for even finding the sexual reference in here; but that's because I'm trained to. :rolleyes: Nah, who am I kidding - it's not even remotely subliminal. Haha.

    Absolutely depressing...we're not making progress and I thought what we wanted was change? We're moving backwards. But I digress. Any thoughts on how to revolutionize the way we think, Blades? I don't like the way this World is going...at all; and I'd rather die then live through it if it keeps going this way.
     
  2. If you're not into materialism why do you listen to what your mind has to say?
     
  3. Thought this would go without saying; but here, I'll rephrase - greedy materialism. An ongoing need to consume.
     

  4. Well this is the Internet and I'm really high, had to ask.
     
  5. I seek to achieve 'mastery' to some extent

    If you honestly believe there is more than 'materialism' - then perhaps actualize such you believe there is

    the people of this world i find to be 'intellignet fools'
    annoying - one of the most annoying conbmination seeminly possible
