Have you ever lied to get a job, keep a job or to advance your position? Power and wealth corrupt. How many humans are uncorruptible? What makes them decide to stop? Love and healing.

No. I have never lied to get a job, keep a job or advance in a position! I have been retired for a decade and when I look at where the world is headed I'm in total disbelief...

The Desiderata was written in 1927, and I think it applies beautifully to today.

It's incredibly difficult. They may all be dead; tortured to death.

Mat 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

Like the yogi who meditated in a cave for twenty years and concluded he had mastered anger, and then proceeded back to the "world" and got angry at the first person he encountered.

The reason I think they probably do not exist is because we humans do not know what is going to happen next nor how we may react. That is the human condition. By being conscious and having free will we are capable of anything. We may feel in control of our emotions and mind but something could happen that challenges our core.

"What makes them decide to stop? Love and healing." - can you give any practical examples? Or is it just an exercise to maintain mental health?

My life, for one, and so many have told me their healing stories and I have read so many accounts. An interview I read this morning ... Dr. Mercola wrote the healing story of the Florida State Surgeon General.

My healing journey mostly began with studying Healing Touch in the 90s... It has been an incredible trip!

So it's one's own mental health then.

Everything is waves of energy in constant motion vibrating at different frequencies. Everything we think, say and do is energy and spreads out in all directions. In each moment we are spreading positive or negative vibes. Change begins within.

Since negative vibes tend to rise when in contact with positive ones, it only takes a critical mass to raise the vibrations of humanity.

Ah yes, I’ll love my warmongering corrupt politicians to stop stealing my money and killing kids. That’ll work great.

Be the change. Love yourself. Be anti war, anti violence and anti corruption. Be kind to all. See what happens. It raises vibrations and feels so much better than anger and hate.

A very interesting 2017 interview of Alexandr Dugin by Alex Jones

https://theinfowar.tv/watch?id=6302b3279e638f13f99a1c3f

I have never before seen Alex Jones actual video. This one contains demented short videos of Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi, symbols of DNC corruption – one can see why the bipartisan US War party hates and fears Alex Jones.

The fan is spinning up slowly but surely. And the shit keeps piling up, overflowing, and about to hit it.

For those who follow everything closely it's time to run for cover. If there is one to be found.

About strange nude man attack on Pelosi: Paul Pelosi was most likely attacked by a male prostitute

An unavoidable conclusion about Paul Pelosi

1. Assailant in his underpants

2. Paul Pelosi knows his name and tells police he’s a “friend.”

3. Assailant asks “where’s Nancy?” to make sure she’s not home.

4. Pelosi takes bathroom break from spat and makes 911 call

Conclusion: This guy was a sex partner or male prostitute!

You mentioned rats, well about a week ago I was eating pizza in the park and quickly found myself surrounded by 20 some odd apparently starving rats, less than two feet from me, I felt so bad for them, no creature should have to starve to death, so I started feeding them as though they pigeons until the pizza was all gone.

I'd eat my pizza next to some fancy restaurant. Rats there are fat and my pizza wouldn't tempt them. It'd be all mine.

LOL, something like that, a bunch of restaurants shared the same alley, kept poor maintenance of it so there were many rats and many big fat ones; then the City finally cracked down on them, because it against the ordinance to not thoroughly close the kids. With their access to food cut off the park was their only refuge, besides rats think so much us that we use them first before we study ourselves, and some people even keep them as pets, plus it's a special place where even the hungry homeless people go for salvation. The poor helping the poor, which means watching over each other that no one goes hungry for too long. That's why I eat there, because passerbys figure that just because I'm sitting there that I must have fished it out of a trash can, so I'm always getting food donations that I then pass along to the hungry. Another reason why wealth accumulation should be out lawed in addition to the reasons Caitlin gave the other day. It makes non-humans out of humans.

Wonderful words.

The percentage of the population that manipulates, controls and abuses us is tiny.

These sick narcissistic creatures know no pain not even shame.

There is no comprehension of the word ‘enough’ they just take and take like a puppy or a pony who don’t have an ‘off’ button and will literally eat themselves to death.

These few have made deals over centuries, conclomegrates merging like daughters being married off in the old days to build kingdoms.

The vast majority are good or victims of ‘their’ circumstances. We may in the near future practice ‘shadow work’ to look inside into those dark corners. We to can inflict horrific acts but choose not too. Many think that only a world armed rebellion can save the planet. If that’s the case is it too late? Have too many people been duped into thinking they are doing the right thing? How many people join the military thinking they are doing the right and honourable thing to find out they are just being duped and used as a political pawn? At 20 I thought I was doing the right thing, by 32 I had been promoted 4 times and was a staff officer designing, processing and disseminating ‘policy’ aka ‘ BS’.

If each of us just get one person to open their mind we have a chance. I believe most of us intrinsically know right from wrong, a built in moral compass.

Comments referring to Lew Rockwell and Mercola about the same poem. Interesting.

Aaron Good's part 4 youTube on US Imperialist history hints at the complexity of the problem:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYywVTzV524&list=TLPQMjEwODIwMjLthfaTuH7rzg&index=3

...where "realists" and "leftists" agree on the outcome if certain actions are taken (Ukraine), but then may take those actions anyway because they don't agree that the outcome is "good" or "bad".

Is it a lie if you truly believe it to be the only choice for a positive outcome?

I'm not at all suggesting that there are no liars. Krysten Sinema comes to mind. But if (as Good points out) you haven't a common definition of a given label, you will get no where in resolution of the conflict. (Abortion for example)

It's a shame people can't just live their lives in peace, unfortunately though, some people don't think we should have inalienable rights, including many of us who will be the first to die when the greatest genocide the world has ever seen begins. We are like those people who wanted Prohibition in the US thinking that some how the law would only be applied to others, not them. Obviously, many Christians never heard the words of Christ, "Whatever you do on to the least of men you do on to me".

What if we are all biased, confused, lying and not knowing we are...

It's the nature of this matrix, dimension.

Know who and what we are beyond all beliefs, ideas, emotions and rest and live in that space.

This excellent poem captures the situation perfectly: it is a jungle, what we are born into and live in, but an artificial jungle that has lost all the charm of the real, original jungle because the predatory beasts are not beautiful, natural, exciting, inspiring, challenging and basically our companions, mentors and friends. These self-made beasts want it all for themselves, and nightmares for the rest of us. They want to push us out of our natural home, and size us up for harnesses and reins. And then erect fences, barbed wire and land mines so we can't even see other possibilities, think clearly, breathe freely.
