Organized religions and governments cannot exist without propaganda. The term used to be preaching, and now it is called civic education, but the goal is still the same as it has always been: To keep you in the loop of slavery. The slavery apparatus is always raised on some essential pillars. First, there is the propaganda arm. This used to be a church and a place of worship. Now, this role is acquired by the crony corporate media. What this arm does is – keep you trapped under a never-ending row of threats and fear-mongering. The source of these threats is the age-old tactic: Divide, conquer, and rule.
The “divide, conquer, and rule” agenda begins at a very young age. Previosly this role was mainly in the hands of church schools, now its flag beaeere are public schools. A child is required to attend an assigned public school. This school, from the very beginning, teaches the child how great a nation or religion “We” are. Everyone else is a sinner or barbarian. We are the chosen ones, and others are destined to burn in eternal hell. It forces the kid to think in terms of ‘them’ and ‘us.’ We are the good people, and they are the bad people. From this, they also stem the idea that we must teach and reform them for their own good.
Do not forget that this process is happening on both sides or every side. So, everyone has a false sense of superiority, and some harbor a dislike or hatred for others. Highly deceptive and misleading tactics are used for this purpose. “They hate us” is a routine inoculation. They will come for us, or they are coming for us. They will kill us and destroy us. News reports will be crafted to show the barbarianism and hate for us in the others or so-called enemies. The racial, ethnic, cultural, traditional, religious, and ethnic differences would be exceptionally exploited and magnified, presenting a dead end or a point of no return and compromise.
Numerous terms have been invented in the past and present to make differences appear to have some scientific or rational basis. Traitors, apostates, sinners, conspiracy theorists, terrorists, pirates, etc., are used to smear others and dissenters. For example, if a person on your side is doing the same as the person on the other side, the one on your side becomes a freedom fighter while the one on the other side becomes a terrorist. People on your side are truth seekers, while those on the other side are evil. You are doing God’s work while others are God’s enemies.
Language plays a crucial role in the entire conflict-building and exploitation process. This divide-and-conquer approach is played out at every level, from local to international. Have-ones and have-nots, rich and poor, exploiter and exploited, white vs. non-white, male vs. female. Immigrants vs. so-called citizens. There is no beginning and no end to this mess. It is infinitely vast and deep. People’s inefficiencies and deficiencies are exploited to keep them hating each other, maintain the division, and deepen and broaden it. Every successful person has stolen from you to get rich, so you must give us the power to steal so that we can steal it from him and pass on some of the stolen stuff to you for free.
The cultural norms are redefined to such an extent they lose all the meaning. Re-distribution of wealth becomes sharing, mass murderers become heroes in the name of war, giving up freedom for a false sense of safety becomes care, shooting people at traffic stops becomes safety and security, treating so-called citizens like enemies becomes the prevention of crime and terrorism, Socialist style mass surveillance of citizens becomes keeping an eye on enemies. If you are not involved in this game of murder, theft, deception, lies, corruption, and cronyism, then you are supposedly sleeping, and if you volunteer, get involved, and even excited about it, then you are woke.
Organized religions and governments have always been creepy. Their primary purpose is to keep you enslaved forever for thousands of years worldwide, but these recent power grabs have made the government’s most bizarre ever. They have no bounds, and there are no limits. They can create any problem, reaction, and solution situation and claim whatever power they want, as much of it as they wish, at any time, in any place, for any period they want, and in many cases, forever. Unfortunately, America is often a leader in both good and bad ways. Leaders are good when people lead the way, and leaders are bad when governments lead the way.
Americans are statistically the most charitable people in the world. However, their government has become the most significant imperial power in the entire history of the global human experience. They can make anyone and everyone’s business their own with the lamest excuses, such as spreading Democracy. They can start unending wars like the war on terror and the war on drugs under very obviously false and deceptive propaganda. Even the repeated shameful failures and extreme waste of life, property, money, business, and families cannot stop them. Corporate media tends to make people forget the past quickly without learning any lessons from it.
While many countries that have legalized drugs, like the Netherlands and Brazil, are doing perfectly fine and even better, the drug war that is causing lots of crime, black markets, violence, deaths, and disease by sharing needles, for example, and corruption never ends. Longest and lost wars like Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq do not stop our involvement in foreign wars. Countries messed up due to our participation, like Iran, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, and Mexico, could not make us mind our own business. The most recent victim of our and NATO’s international chess game is Ukraine.
My friends, it is time to realize that doing the same and expecting different results is not the solution. It has been tried worldwide for thousands of years with zero success rate. The government is a monster that cannot be fixed. We must get rid of it.
