Creating A One World Consciousness: Critique
344 ViewsI rarely wander off into the right-wing mindfield of paranoia and delusion anymore, because I am so often disappointed in what I find. Wrong-headed thinking and outright lies and fabrications are the booby traps lying in every other sentence for the unaware or uninformed.
Silly me, I did it again. First found on Blacklisted News, but the source is here on Intel Strike, a site I’ve never seen. The article, titled “Creating A One World Consciousness: Mankind at the Turning Point Part 2“, sounded interesting.
Yet what I found was disturbing in its denial, lack of understanding and insinuation. Unfortunately, I was not able to comment in the commentary section, either it doesn’t work or it’s not allowed.
The author’s emphasis on various sections is a bit strange to me. The issue is mankind’s survival, for exactly the reasons he denies, such as climate change. I am unable to comment on the Mankind at the Turning Point: The Second Report of the Club of Rome, quoted in the article, having never read it, so will limit my comments to the article linked above.
The focus of Mankind at the Turning Point is a computer model that supposedly replicates the major features of the world problematique. According to The Club of Rome, the world problematique is the set of interlocking world problems, such as, over population, food shortages, non-renewable resource depletion, environmental degradation, etc. Not surprisingly, their self serving model, based on exponential inputs, predicts the complete unravelling of society and perhaps the biosphere. Naturally, failure to implement The Club of Rome’s solution of a totalitarian world government will result in the potential end of humanity.
All true — including the world problems of overpopulation, food shortages and resource depletion. So what’s the problem? The Club of Rome? (not known for being truly interested in the real benefit of mankind). I’ve no defense for this group, I know enough about them to definitely not take that path.
According to the articles bolded emphasis by the author, there is a big problem, apparently. He apparently disagrees with the “need” to adjust the value system of humanity. I’d like to ask “Why not?“. Humanity is headed over a cliff, our future survival is at stake if we do not change, and it is our value system at fault. But the author apparently disagrees, deeming any adjustments as being dangerous for humankind.
This bizarre conclusion becomes even more bizarre the further you read as the author flat-out denies global warming as “propaganda” and “myth“. He goes further, and decries “the necessity of a change in the man-nature relationship” as being something that is bad.
It is this type of wrong-headed thinking that characterizes so much of the “news” today that disgusts me. Humankind cannot continue on it’s present path without necessary adjustments in our relationships to each other, nature and our institutions. It is imperative that we change — but how we change remains a subject of much debate.
There is a lot of high-level think tank projections out there that depict the need to reduce the world population and create stable governments and control resources. Unfortunately, it’s all true, despite the Machiavellian intentions they (sometimes) express. It’s being driven by both greed (control and ownership), resource depletion and climate change.
For example, the NWO agenda has been widely reported to reduce populations to sustainable levels. Yeah, ok, I’m for that, it’s going to happen anyway since unsustainable populations levels will crash on their own. Another NWO agenda item is to control the resources. Now I’ve got a problem, because the issue of control always leads to totalitarianism and an imbalance of justice. More for them and less for me and you kind of thing.
Underlying this is the human nature equation, which the author above fails to recognize. We need to change our relationships towards life, living, wealth, “stuff”, control, ownership, government, nature and the institutions that support all of this imbalance and exploitation. We definitely don’t need a capitalist future because that will only lead to where we’ve already been, leading to the same end results we have today.
This is another reason why the “marketplace” will never fix our basic human faults, because it is an economic model driven by greed, not need. The current emphasis in the Green Movement for example, will be to continue to exploit the natural world for profits, while pretending we’re “helping” the environment by continuing the cycle of exploitation.
We do need a new ethic and a new consciousness, one that respects the planet we live on and all life forms that it still contains. Many, many people believe this is a liberal bias, which is quite ridiculous. It’s common sense and one that needs worldwide exposure. What I’ve found is more “non-liberals” believe that we can just go right on doing what we’ve always done, stupidly failing to even acknowledge the terrible damage that has led us to the place we are today. They can’t see it, they don’t want to hear about it and will vehemently deny that it even exists, because it refutes their world-view.
Many of these non-liberals are waiting for a magical rescue from the sky-god, which is patently absurd. I spent 20 years researching this issue in great detail and depth and I can most assuredly guarantee, it will never happen unless aliens land here first looking for survivors. The right-wing is unfortunately, populated with many that believe such nonsense and many other myths.
Mythology and superstitions govern almost all our planet still today, and are largely the cause behind most of the failures we’re experiencing. It’s not just religion I’m picking on here, but other myths too such as “infinite resources” and “human ownership”. Only the brain-dead can’t see it that way, they truly believe that they are “chosen” to be the world’s polluters and destroyers and abusers of men, planet and animals. It’s disgusting.
There is a real need for a new consciousness based upon reality today, which is needed throughout the entire world. Call it a new “one world consciousness” if you like. We all need to be aware of our past, our failures, our history and our future. This planet is our home, our planet, our one world, which is all we have. If we all treated our houses like we do this planet-home, we’d all be living in toxic waste dumps and sleeping on garbage piles.
Not to leave the left-wing crowd out, because this group also has it’s own mythology and superstitions. I’m often sent material for “my education” from both groups, almost always stuff I’ve seen before and discarded because it’s not based on reality or a grounding in this present-world. Psuedo-science and superstition are simply control mechanisms to make you fearful and afraid, or worse, pretend to offer you false hope where there really is none.
I’ve long believed that key is education, such as with the right wing’s “Moslem problem” (which in reality, they’ve made their problem). But not with the Judeo-Christian “answer”, which would simply replace one myth for another, but in the real world that lies outside of everyone’s door. We don’t need to bomb these people into oblivion because they are dark-skinned or of a different “faith”, we need to offer them an education. Better yet, let them educate themselves, since it’s both their right and choice.
And we need to do the same thing here in America. The religious fundamentalists, the climate change deniers, the capitalists, the whacked out right and left wing extremists, what they all lack is knowledge, perspective and a healthy dose of reality. Having your feet planted on real ground is far more important them many seem to realize. Those that do not are tossed about like winds, subject to every disturbance.
I’d pretty much dislike a world where everybody was the same, that isn’t my personal goal here. But I just as much dislike a world that is run by superstition, mythology, false beliefs and fear, and I’m finding this in large quantities on both sides of the aisle.
It’s disheartening to realize that after all of our “development” and education and science and awareness of the real world that lies all around us, we are still less then fearful animals. Most animals are not afraid in their environment, but have adjusted to its dangers and its extremes and opportunities, and act accordingly. If animals behaved like humans do, they would either be forever holed up in the ground someplace, or blowing shit up.
We’ve still never achieved reality status. Illusions and delusions rule our world through and through. We call “freedom” “fascism” and enjoy the crap they call “food” while it spreads it’s toxins and poisons into our bodies. The “good life” is to be a planet-raping moron with box-office tickets. We wouldn’t recognize the good life if it hit us upside the head with a snowball.
Unfortunately, humans are a plague-like species, governed by greed and delusions of mythology and self-deluding grandeur. Despite this apparent fact, I still believe we can do better. Our past history has been earmarked by the same things we experience today, with the notable absence of our planet-raping gluttonous behavior (in some society’s, Diamond’s “Guns, Germ and Steel” makes it pretty clear we’ve been wasting the planet and eating our way down the food chain for a very long time). We still had all of our other faults and superstitions, but we once lived at times where freedom, liberty, loyalty and trust truly existed and we only took what we needed, not everything we wanted. We wrongly believed we could “improve” on this situation — too bad we belatedly discover we were dead wrong.
One day, maybe, a new consciousness will emerge that discards the myths and superstitions of the past. I don’t know, it might happen, but I won’t live to see it and neither will you. For now, we’ll all have to deal with the lies and superstitions, myths and fabricated realities that earmark our world and are taking it straight to hell.

You’re too honest for your readership. The closer to truth you hit, the more quiet this blog gets. Good job!

Great. That is one of your best pieces to date. Global warming, peak oil, resource depletion, my opinion is it is mostly too inconvenient to believe in right now. Take a guy who has spent his whole life getting all his ducks in a row. Now tell him his ducks are worthless and he has to change everything he was brought up to believe in. Can you blame him for not believing you? Hell, most people will even get angry with you and call you all sorts of names. That has been my experience so far. Maybe one out of twenty thinks that I might have a point, but they also think that there is nothing they can do about it. Maybe it’s true and maybe it ain’t, but I have only met one person who is actually taking steps to survive the upcoming shitstorm. That is one out of about three hundred I have had this discussion with. So now I’m thinking that maybe this is just what we need, a period of natural selection to kick in if for nothing else then to get the IQ back up because I am telling you, there has never been so much stupid on this planet as there is now. I mean, how many fucking times can the Brooklyn Bridge be sold, and the politicians are mostly the ones doing the selling.

Another great post, and you have already lived to see it, new consciousness is here.

Definitely one of your best posts.
Sadly, humanity has always blamed the messenger for the message.
