how quickly this thread has steered away from immigration. (was intended for the immigration thread but was locked as I was typing.)
People, I'm not going to sit on some high chair and tell people what to do. All I'll do is state the raw facts of life weather you wish to accept them or not.
There are many things wrong with this world, and just like a worn-out car; the more people mess with it to try and add new features and make it more acclimadated for everyone the worse the world will get. And that is whether you actually spend time trying to repair the worn out car or not, adding extra luxuries will create excess strain on the vehicle causing no repairs to ever be enough and the car is eventually unfixable unless you happen to own a multi-million dollar mold making factory. The same is true for Society, only for society it becomes a multi-trillion dollar problem.
when do people bitch? generally people bring up extra stuff under 2 conditions;
1: when they are too comfortable. - everything is working right and fine, it is human's nature to try and add extra things to that equilibrium, like a sandwich thats stacked too high eventually it all falls appart when you try to eat it, it's rather disappointing.
2: when those who idolize power itself and thirst after the sound of every last crumpled bill and every last sound of a coin dropping into thier hands, when these people need to gain public approval they play on the Human Nature to want extra luxuries. -it's a better strategy than saying "hey I'll fix it and make it all work" to instead say "hey how would you all like $5000 and a peice of candy?"
seriously if the above two messages were used at a presidential debate the $5000 and candy would win every time.
so, we need to ask ourselves, are we too content with general life? is our government really pushing us to get riled up on certain topics on thier whim?
the answer is Yes.
When you are too content with general life you become uncontent about the small meaningless stuff, it breeds insanity, carelessness, idiocy and perversion.
And it's never enough "TREAT ME SPECIAL I WANT SPECIAL RIGHTS BECAUSE I'M SPECIAL AND THIS IS HOW I FEEL" and they get it, then what? it's never enough so they always push for more. like spoiled children we can never have enough toys, candy, games and entertainment.
finally I must end with this; and it is the most solid scientific fact that can ever relate to human beings with 100% accuracy:
What are feelings? feelings occur when the body releases chemicals and hormones to the various organs and muscles and of course most specifically; emotional feelings occur when these chemicals are introduced into the brain.
thats it, that aspect that hollywood plays on in every superhero movie "our feelings and heart is what makes us superior and human"
that thing that makes us special is no more than a chemical imballence, and it's different for everyone. Further more as a very profound psychiatrist once said "everyone is crazy, because there is no normal, because everyone is different." but does that mean we should just accept peoples differences? No, we must without a shadow of a doubt and no bias come to the conclusion that a certain person's difference (chemical imballence) is not in anyway harmful to others in society and does not create a problem for the human race in general. We must also accept our humanity, we were born as human beings we were born with the sole goal of surviving, yes we can die, and yes the world may be overpopulated now, but in a sudden catastrophy that can all change. We were born as what we are and we should use it with-in reason, those born with untraditional chemical imballences are considdered "handicapped" mentally or otherwise they are people who should seek medical or psychiatric help.
so next time you decide to go with your inner feelings which have spawned your decision making process and go against the way humans physically are, remember, it's just chemicals, yeah you made some life decisions because of the chemical influence, but it doesn't mean you should be treated special or given accomodation. - should stoners be given free munchies and paid time off work because of thier weed induced chemical imballence? should a mentally ill person with a severe anger problem be given special treatment and acceptance in our society because thier particular chemical imballence makes them 'special' ? what if they are a compulsive murderer because of a chemical imballence? I suppose in that respect when we acclimadate and accept and accomodate all chemical imballences and the life decisions they spawn our society will unravel into chaos.
and it is in that chaos that people ARE currently slowly coming to the realization that they are not content with general life any more, and some day they are gonna wake up and thier subconscious is gonna release the chemical and hormone combinations that make them realize that all this other extra stuff wasn't really that important and doesn't matter anywhere nearly as much as personal well-being and survival.
And then, we will get a revolution. and millions of people will die unecessarily for the sake of progress. for a time there will be no special treatment or special groups. but as the world goes in a cycle it will all happen again due to human's inability to learn from history. We always have to figure out whats wrong with a particular thing through our own perspective, we can never just take the wise words of our ancestors and accept them without question for the fear of bringing chaos back to the world. No, man is destined to die needlessly. And when man dies needlessly, Evil man will always find some way to springboard off the dead to gain higher standing.
that is life.
now how meaningless does it all seem?
will you be part of the domino effect that kills millions of people? or will you finally wake up and gain sentience above your own base desires? will you fight the chemicals with your sentience and be part of the solution?
