Image via Wikipedia You never get anything unless you are a fighter. Fighters are prized goods in this world, on this planet. Fighters can fight with you, for you or even just protect you.
If you are not a fighter then you’d better have a useful purpose. Non fighters are the people who still have to have the belief of the fighting system in them. They are the ones who load the guns or care for the wounded or rebuild the cities destroyed by the fighting.
Suppose you are dying. Because you want to. Are you someone who isn’t fighting?
Maybe though you are dying when it’s the last thing you would want to do. Ever.
Then you fight. If you can. If you know how to.
But if you’re not given the tools to do the job then even if you are doing your best the best just isn’t good enough.
Or if you are fighting something with no cure.
Or maybe you don’t believe in fighting. Anything.
Serenity and calm pervade your life. All is as the good books say it should be. Then a fighter comes along and takes your home, or your family or a friend.
Fighting has to have its own reasoning, different from ‘everyone and everything has a right to exist’ reasoning. In the case of wars enacted for odd reasons, Iraq for instance, add multimedia interfaces, ipods, helicopter gunship music, M4’s, smart bombs, gung ho training, antiquated religious feuds and the reasons for using the fighting side of the human spirit in this particular conflict become confused.
Like trapping a wild animal in a small cage, mankind hates oppression of any kind. It destroys part of its growing. Fighting to oppress takes far less energy in the first stages unless that fighter is up against another fighter of equal skill. Any gentle person can be subdued fairly readily most of the time by someone who wants a real to the death fight. However, societies with spirit and relative freedom tend to be able to unhappily but very seriously fight to the death for a belief or cause of national or global standing (WWII).
We can’t keep limiting the budget on this planet to what sums can produce when mixed with human input and output.
… but if we decide that each of us is unique as is every plant and animal then it seems to stand to reason that our output can be unique. That we each can experience different viewpoints of the same reality.
Then we join in with the holistic game that says that all is part of one. A whole entity made up of all of it. Anything could have an answer to something else. Machinery that can cope with seeing and understanding the whole. Benign Big Brother. No teeth for doing deliberate damage. A personal firewall for everything on the planet. Personal profiles and rights lists built in. Spot the countries that breach the human rights act. But also join in with using the new amounts of data that flow from the New Hyper Capitalist System. Clarifying data. Focussing data. Valuable data.
Nothing loses its value with the new system. Everything gains a value. No one loses anything. What you have is what you have.
