“I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose any voters, OK?”
-Donald Trump
Trump said this in 2016 and he wasn’t wrong.
Here we are 7 years later, spending millions of dollars on trying to prove his guilt and finding some way of convicting him, and this again, is a complete waste of Taxpayers money. Nothing will come of it. Apparently, people haven’t really listened to him or watched him closely enough, because he has said some of the most provocative, outrageous statements and somehow he keeps failing upwards. No flies on him.
We now have a string of people who can apparently lie and falsify with no consequence.
Understanding the individual human system in all its splendor answers many confusing questions. Using optics that belie environment, some genetics, and education, will give you better comprehension about what produces and what repels. You don’t want to live your life screaming “It’s just not fair” or scratching your head when geometry and logic don’t play a significant part in what happens, both good and bad.
We all have some sort of survival system- a system made up of fear, shame and other notable ingredients. This system bypasses logic and some linear way of thinking, and just issues forth a fuel that drives a foregone conclusion. Now we all have explanations and justification, again, both good and bad, for the results of our lives. But if you begin to think more that you are on a rocket that has a very specific destination in mind, you might enjoy the ride a bit more.
ROCK, PAPER SCISSORS-YOUR SURVIVAL SYSTEM-SURVIVAL SYSTEM ALWAYS WINS.
What does this mean?
That if you are configured to get away with everything- you will.
If you are configured to get caught all the time- you will.
If you are a person who is designed to never fulfill their potential- you won’t produce.
If you are a person to have great things happen for you and you haven’t worked for it- that will happen.
If you need to put yourself in dangerous situations and come out on top- that will happen.
If you are a person who doesn’t leave the house and dangerous shit happens- then that’s you.
AND SO ON AND SO ON. The different animals in the human zoo are infinite. The nuances that define those animals are infinite. The multiple destinations that are allied to the system are varied. We are, and have always been, in some sort of manic drive to show we have free will and to change the design of humankind.
This goes against all that Free Choice rhetoric. Maybe choice is about choosing the inevitable direction you are going, then maybe you can talk about where you have choice and where you don’t.
