Why do I Still Pay Respect to What the Leaders I Elect Say?

Why do I still pay respect to what the leaders I elect say?

The latent goal of leadership is always the redistribution of wealth. From those who have earned it. To others the leaders I elect decide it should go to. 

And when I pay respect to these leaders, I'm hoping to get a bigger piece of the distribution, in exchange for my sycophancy.

There are no rights, merit or justice involved in the redistribution. It will go to whomever the leaders I elect decide. And god knows what their motivation actually is for this greatest of all acts of Power? 

I will never know. I will never be told about the motivation for it. I will only be given an image of the reason for it. An illusion claiming with no clear attempt at truth, the 'justice' in the redistribution of what is created by all. Yes of course, I'll be given plenty of hoax reasons. But do I really care about the actual reason so long as I get a bigger cut of the distribution? And my only route to that is by paying respect to those who dish it out. Especially public respect - it's seen as a virtue to be seen to be paying this respect. 

There are no exceptions to this rule, not even at the margins. The left in me will do my cock sucking under a veil of saving the planet. The right in me will do it pretending to demand protection of rights to free speech. All remaining parts of me will use whatever is my next preferred ideology to hoax it. There are no exceptions, except for the One.

So there is no way I will be able to tell if the distribution is just or not. All I have is the respect I continue to pay to the leaders I elect. In the hope they will give me a bigger piece of the distribution.

I guess this also means when I pay respect to God, that, is also a matter of faith and there's no more I can say about it. I do guess though. Wealth is created and distributed on the earth. And God's will is not done on earth as in heaven no matter how much we keep praying for it to be so.

And this is why, despite having no idea of the justice in it, that I still pay respect to what the leaders I elect tell me. Because I want a bigger piece of the distribution. There is no other reason for it. I can try and escape from this position, but that will only signal my 'escape' into a deeper fantasy, reinforcing the point more intensely.

I have to get over the illusion that justice, rights, equality, diversity and so on and so on and so on have anything whatsoever to do with that decision.

We are talking about political economy here - the production of wealth, and how that wealth ultimately gets distributed - in whose pocket do the goodies finally end up - political economy.

In the end, am I really projecting when I insist on paying respect to the leaders I elect, with all my stupid, childish, ideological excuses? Because what I really want is for them to accept my sycophantic respect in exchange for a bigger piece of the distribution.

Don't read me wrongly, project onto me, shoot down a strawman or beg the question here. I'm not saying that paying respect to leaders for this reason is right or wrong, a good thing or a bad thing or that something should be done to stop it or promote it even more. 

I am just pointing at it. So that the wise man can observe it without judgement and act on that observation for the good. 

To help me find a way to welcome in the stranger at my door. To help me to forgive my enemy. To enter the Kingdom.

PETITION: Government to indicate countries of the UK are open to accede to the US

Sign the Petition A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states.  Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or  England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious con...

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview?

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview? I didn't. But it's when I believe my worldview, is truth, that I become violent without realising it. This is extremely hard for people to accept as possible. The resistance to seeing it and the temptation to escape from looking, is built into its foundations. So, I never said worldviews are bad for us. I did say that when I believe my worldview is a fact, then "I" become root cause of the worlds problems. Thought creates an image of the world. Then thought worships the image that thought created. I am scared of death. So I create an existential worldview about immortality - an image. This can be a God, a political ideology, scientific religiosity, atheism, planet saving activism, anything which my fear of death can hide behind. So if I do 'good' through this image I created, I will ultimately get a 'seat on the right hand side of God' , or whatever the image I created has defined as heaven. Then I w...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle culminating in a financial crisis or a great recession. The 18.6 year period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this. And the politicians of the time used it to signal the day when the economy would be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because this period was about how long the people of nations could abuse the economy before it was too late to recover on its own and much worse effects would have emerged. So it was the wisdom of the leadership of the time. As the aeons went by, the meaning and rationale of this policy became normalised - people an...
