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.
