Every individual is a potential investment.

The rulers of this world have for thousands of years understood this concept far better than has the “average man” and thus the preponderance of fortune via sustained aggregation of capital and influence. The “wretched of the earth” often view their own offspring as wretched and codify in them this perspective, the evolution of a slave morality is indispensable to a ruling class autocracy and we must be aware of the naked determinism. It is enough therefore for me to suggest to you who read this that a popular culture which stands in opposition to this movement (a movement which constitutes the whole of our history as a species) is possible, a culture which would, and in fact can, smash the entire apparatus of global corporatism. The understanding that the universe is indeed an integral system should suggest to us that all human beings are an investment to us. Can we protect the benefits and notion of the family while achieving the realization of unity?

Both are possible, both are necessary. We must maintain the system of the family and strengthen it and we must also create a world culture in which all humans come to see other humans as being indispensable members of their own family – the human family. This may be to some a dangerous diversion into theory and debate which merely opens the door to further globalization, but I must say as I often do that we must walk a razor’s edge if we are to move forward. We must be vigilant against the culture of global corporatism while seeking to create a true global culture: we are faced with a terrible dilemma, if we do nothing we shall have a new world order designed by Malthusians, if we attempt to produce an alternative design it will be under constant assault from those very forces who will try to co-opt it and create a managed form of their own design thereby.

The richest and most powerful have the greatest ability to enhance their investments. With each passing generation the sustainability of personal empire increases and its only attritional opposition forces that up the form of the exceptional who manage to break their imperial conditioning and wriggle through the mud of this world onto dry land. In many cases these individuals are essentially co-opted by the very system of domination they might overthrow; moreover, as time passes and the system of global domination evolves the possibility for escaping from this further management diminishes. You may wake up but you are still a prisoner, forced to plow the fields of your masters and faced with the impregnability of the systems they control.

This dynamic has produced the information war, the war of ideas: this process has been going on for thousands of years.

The battle has changed but the field remains the minds of mankind. You have been persuaded that thoughts and feelings are not material substances by the very people who utilize them for the purpose of sustaining empire. It is enough to become angry, the whole nut of the problem is dissent.
The parameterization is clear: we must identify those individuals and institutions and reject them; we must invest in one another. The evolution of such a system of organized dissent is what the “left” in American politics is thematically supposed to be. I might say that in fact there is no left per se, that a left only coalesces as a sort of homeopathic response mechanism to cultural infections that become too severe. The essential problem here then is that the body politic itself (the electorate) has become cancerous, it has been made cancerous by design so as to eliminate the threat of immunological responses.

To be continued
