Revolution or Misapprehension

The people’s movement in LA, France, Thailand, China, Philippines, the South Americas etc., verifies a power dynamic outlined in a previous paper:

“…the erosion and final dissolution of power concentrated in specific locations is rapidly occurring today. The ultra-right/left authoritarian contractionism we witness today is symptomatic of its failure to harmoniously engage the greater (world) dynamic. The ‘greater’ the contractionism/antagonism the greater attraction it creates for precisely those forces and conditions that would equalise it [dispersion] in the broader world context.”

[Temporary] ruling elites continue to labour under the misapprehension that it is they who control the masses. Recently, highly motivated groups around the globe have shattered the dreams, delusions and illusions of those who believed they were in control. Nevertheless, ruling elites continue to desperately clutch at the straws of failed ideologies and philosophies, rather than surrender to reason, they continue (at speed) on their nihilistic course impelled by the madness associated with minority rule.

The above pattern of events is not new to history, but will the people today accept the nihilism of conservative governments? It would seem not, the people today are actively engaging the powers in order to be heard and become part of the social policy-making process. However, the powers refuse to accept a secondary role and persist in their sordid attempts to manage the masses. Today, the masses demand equal rights and refuse to be exploited. It is self evident that equality must be the foundation upon which all the affairs of men are transacted – and woe to those who imagine they are able to oppose the balancing tide of human discontent.

Social unrest has again clearly demonstrated the insularity characteristic of conservatism, while the attention of those who rule is focused on their pockets and other self-involved concerns, a civil war foments on their doorsteps. [The people always engage those who disregard their needs.] It should be cause for concern when millions of protesters mobilise in a city that only supports a few thousand police and other regulatory personnel.

Astute politicians and wise leaders would have seized the opportunity to become champions of the people but the powers resorted to deception and tired old methods of disguising the reality of the situation. The compliant partisan mass media scarcely covered these (LA) demonstrations, every attempt was made to diminish the magnitude of these events and disregard the demands of the people. This behaviour will only exacerbate the situation and create the climate for an even greater response (France) in the future.

Fools and blind have noted that these demonstrations are an international phenomenon. It is becoming plain to all that social inequality will no longer be tolerated anywhere. National boundaries and other absurd delineations drawn on a free planet are meaningless in the context of the thousands of millions of people opposing a handful of ruling elites. The rulers are aware of their tenuous position and the arbitrary nature of boundaries. In a vain attempt to safeguard their positions they cultivate division based on race, belief, culture and fear – let it be known that the majority of people are ONE regardless of superficial differences.

The issue today is the elimination of those who would divide humanity. These persons reveal themselves by their speech and behaviour – they are murderers! It is incumbent on all freedom loving people to actively oppose the forces that would divide and destroy human life and other life on this planet.

Oppressive forces in the East and repressive forces in the West have recently combined to form an unholy alliance in a futile attempt to locate the ‘leaders’ of an essentially leaderless international movement. It should now be obvious to all that a central or hierarchical command structure does not exist. However, rulers are only able to think in terms of their own ‘realities’; oblivious to the lessons of history they do not understand that people would rather forfeit their lives than live in subjection or (economically induced) slavery.

Millions of people marching and demonstrating in the streets is only a prelude. However, those who rule have much to lose and will not easily surrender their ill-gotten gains. Today’s struggle erupts as a consequence of inequity, exploitation, abuse and destruction. But it should never be forgotten that there is no power greater than the unified power of the people.

In conclusion, beware the ‘dance’ of the Straussians and other predictable tactics of the ruling elites. Parading ‘captured leaders’ of the people’s movement and making examples of them in their corrupt courts would be one such tactic. These dirty tricks (especially for any innocent victims) are well known to analysts, they are all designed to intimidate the population and create/reinforce subservience. Believe none of it, there are no leaders per se, anyone can sound the cry to liberty and equality, however, the impetus and power always remains with the people.

We are ONE.
