Good vs Evil - burro - 07-09-2026
Talking about politics and the richest guys, we're meant to co-exist in a way that tests boundaries.
Population is often forgiving to a certain degree due to insignificance on individual level. But get the wrong person, the entire globe can erupt.
Individuals, including the politicians and ultra welthy guys have complex traits that can be generalised, but each has his own processes that keep individual "locked" in his nature which is rarely broken. Our nature is what makes (or breaks) us. When breaking, life demands a hard change with everything coming to halt jsut for you to reflect what you haven't considered. Other times you can be a perfectionist in your field, you still get a lesson of a lifetime.
If it would be simple, everyone would be happy, wouldn't we.
Coming back to good/evil; our traits demand expression. Be it good or bad, but majority of people are mostly good. Given that someone wants complete authority over people, at some stage something breaks, where sudden burst of inspiration can change how people want to be treated, drastically.
As long as there're organized civilizations, common people cannot be forever taken control of. Even if they're limited by laws, technology and rules. Maybe that's a good reason for eventual death, so that whatever good and praiseworthy is created is then passed on. The wrongdoings are frowned upon.
With this cycle, socially we're supposed to develop culture of harmony and cooperation between all individuals, except we have entered the amnesia stage of development. A lot of our human nature has been pacified that individuals don't mature into understanding each other.
You've heard "history repeats itself", yes it does. Because of badly written history, world leaders are commiting the same mistakes. A good example is "radical nationalism" which stands on pretence of fighting for local culture. That was done in 1941. We're not taught of the reasons, but something snaps and then goes too far.
With so many cultures around the world, mixing everyone together blinded by tolerance for "diversity" hides the truth that we all think, but it's taboo to talk about. What this leads to is rising nationalism. It can be nudged with realisation to adjust government response, do something with illegal immigrants as an example. But different culture and thinking cannot be changed to the ways of where people arrive to live, they bring their ways to the country. On top of that, the hosts of the immigrants are reminded to tolerate violent mistreatment by their guests. This is where right and wrong can switch sides. If nothing is done, and the host doesn't see adaptation by the immigrants, the only way becomes - force. Due to recent major migrations due to some secret global agreement, this is the fate that awaits yet again. Will people be able to stand for what they value, or have they pacified us enough to not care?
Why can this not be looked at as a test to be corrected instead of going full steam ahead into the problems? Scientists, decades of studies, massive budgets. Yet the world is not able to self regulate things that we know so well.
On a happy thought. Whenever evil wins once, good will also prevail in doing something to get rid of suffering.
Many many thoughts about this, just that we're not used to talk about any of this with honesty. Maybe because we're told to choose a side to defend, while actual changes happen behind our backs.
