A Costly Life, or a Profitable Death?

~ MKW Publishing ~ 2 Comments

The sun still shines, mostly, people still go about their day, if they can, and we all get dragged along behind the large and never-ending gravy train that is Britain. A hub of all sorts of activities, like Mos Eisley perhaps, where those words occasionally echo through my mind when watching the politicians “You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy”. Although, we know there are other Hives around the world, so we are not unique, or alone with the feeling I believe.

But the latest twists and turns of this dark path we are on really do seem to be revealing a very twisted and buckled mentality at the helm. Which we have already been witness to, and have been for more decades that we might like to admit, but it’s out there in the open now for all to see. My articles, It Looked Sinister, and More than Sinister started to look at a more recent side of it, with others like It’s Big Business and What Are We Worth? also looking at how much incentive there is for corporations to be so intimately involved in all aspects of your life.

With new and innovative ways to take people out of the processes of Life. From starting your journey in a external pod, already mentioned in Pod Life and Pod Life 2, you can now end it there too with a Death Pod. Seemingly desperate to remove humans from the human processes of creating and growing other humans. Quite an odd and destructive move, but seems to be what they would like. And they keep Tightening The Screw on society and the mentality of people, to convince them of what they want them to think. That the cost of living is too much of a strain, so look to an affordable death instead, which of course, someone else is Making Money from Misery and would like to continue, and look to find more elaborate ways to do it. It also helps them to keep people horrified and arguing, arguing morality and legality while they carry on with their Rather Dark Enterprises.

Continued talk and laws for assisted suicide, now also pushing full term abortions with no questions and no consequence. Which should make anyone realise they are handing you the rope to hang yourself, because then they don’t have to believe they are part of it. Like other things recently, a large emphasis being put on ‘it’s your decision’ and ultimately it is. Because just as discussed in That’s The Ticket, it’s like they need you to volunteer, to hand yourself and your offspring over willingly as a sacrifice. You can’t be taken, you must give yourself. Which is why perhaps the coercion tactics are so heavy, the psychological propaganda relentless, to those who are still wavering, or are undecided. In Dante’s Inferno, the entrance to hell was the Vestibule, filled with the undecided, who’s punishments were to be stung by hornets and to chase an unanchored banner, symbolizing a lack of action and indecisiveness. And sometimes it is good to wait to make a decision, and not be forced, but if the indecision lasts too long, then it leaves more room for it to last, or for it be taken as you need assistance with it. Doubt can help you or hinder you, and sometimes it can be a good thing to have others to assist. Just make sure you know the motive and incentive of anyone offering you that ‘help’ to decide…

Seeing Yourself

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

It’s now a thing more than ever before, being able to see yourself. Utilising the move forward in technology to give us a view of ourselves, not usually factored into our development previously, or at least not as much. But in that ‘view’, it seems it’s more than just a digital 2-D representation of ourselves, imprinted in time and in our minds once created, an image our ourselves also gets created.

But further to just seeing a created image of you as a still image, we then took it further with moving images, cinematography and the whole industry that was then spawned. The ‘silver screen’ and glitz and glamour that was then portrayed through it, and from it. Creating a completely different mindset in many people, of either how they view things and people, or how they thought they wanted to be viewed. Almost like a strange looped awareness and existence, where people possibly never really get to be themselves, because they spend so much time wondering about how they appear from a second- or third-person perspective, and that goes into forming who they end up being. But is that who they are, really?

And for it to take hold and become ingrained in people’s thoughts, it needed people to want to be looked at. To want to be known, looked at, admired and ultimately perhaps to hope to become all that you pretend to be. But it’s all based on perception, at least for people in the public eye. For people you meet and know personally, it’s slightly different. But only because it has a different platform and used to be a smaller audience, so it came out in different ways. Now however, people can find their own audience to a point, can be their own content and gather their own audience like never before. Creating some rather strange oddities for people to observe, or at least that’s how it is presented. Again, these are created personalities and scenarios, to hook you in and keep you entertained.

That TV show Big Brother was an interesting move to get people more involved with the weird set up of watching people being watched. To get people used to the idea of being watched and monitored, and how you are perceived by your immediate peers, or a wider audience, which then affects the outcome of how you are treated in the ‘real world’ thereafter. Gogglebox was another odd one I found, the concept of watching a TV, to watch people watching a TV and commenting on it seemed an extra separation from doing something real.

Perception – this being how we see things, ourselves and form opinions and beliefs, covered from certain angles in Perceptions of Self, and Perceptions of What We Think We See. And as we now live in a very deceiving time, what we perceive to be true images or facts has become a bit less clear but than it used to be. In fact, we relish fiction and lies as a species, as long as we know and they are framed as such. Once we are not aware if they are truth or not, it must throw off our perception skills somewhat I would think. That’s maybe why naive people struggle, they are programmed to believe and trust what they see and hear. And then there are the more jaded amongst us, who may initially take things on face value, and then take the extra time to discern whether it is indeed a truth to work with or something factual to analyse and understand.

A person – “The word ‘person’ originates from the Latin word ‘persona’, which initially referred to the mask worn by actors in ancient theatre. This mask signified the role or character the actor was playing. The concept evolved to encompass the individual playing the role, and eventually, the general concept of a human being” – strange that we talk so much these days about people ‘masking’ or putting on a face for society, and not really being themselves. All these ‘persons’ of society not really being themselves at all, because we are defined as a masked version of ourselves.

Mirror – I believe this also would have changed the mentality of people a fair amount, and I do have wonderings about the real reasons for mirrors being made a thing, and for every household to have them briefly discussed in A Portal. But before that, vanity of course must have existed, mist was it so prevalent? Did people feel the need to check their face all the time, and wonder what others thought of it? Did people even care in the time after they became mainstream? Or was that why extra pressure through propaganda and ‘beauty standards’ needed to be encouraged, so that people started judging each other more, competing with each other more and fighting amongst themselves in a perpetual Keeping Up With The Joneses type of squabble. Too busy showing off to and trying to outdo each other to notice the real villains in the tale.

Avatar – A word that has become mainstream in recent years, even before the film came out. It’s original meaning in Hinduism is – “a manifestation of a deity or released soul in bodily form on earth; an incarnate divine teacher.” We apply it to someone’s identity icon on their online profile, feeding into a ‘persona’ that gets created for them to become part of and feed into. Possibly confusing an unformed identity, but on the flipside, could help to solidify one already one the way to knowing thyself. Hard to say for sure.

Matrix – they touched upon it in the film when they referred to Neo’s ‘residual self’, when it came to explaining why he appeared different when back in the Matrix. Showing that often we have a different mental image or view of ourselves compared to the real version. How we look as well as how we think we look becoming part of what gives us this picture of ourselves, and in the film, that is then projected within the ‘construct’ to create a 3d physical reality and self. But because he never ever viewed himself as the real version after we woke up, with the plugs and human modifications, it seems he never did quite get his head round being a visitor to it as he never appeared as his real self. Only the projection.

Individual – Identity divided into dual aspects is how I breakdown that word now, because once it was pointed out to me that the word on the end is dual, which is amusing in a word meaning single. Ideally it should be a word to describe each human as a separate entity from The Hive, but in essence seems to represent maybe the splitting of the identity, or soul perhaps as mentioned in Soul Harvester. Taking you away from being part of the universe and instead getting caught into a kind of dualverse, where it doesn’t seem as easy as it once did to know or work out who people are, because many of them it seems, don’t even know who they are themselves…

If Your Name’s Not Down

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

An older version slightly of ‘computer says no’, where it was used for comedy effect here and there and for a mocking attitude to go with it.

“If your name’s not down, you’re not coming in” was how the saying went as I remember, to denote that you are excluded, not on the list, not part of it. With it always being shown as a glitzy club or event, where only the ‘elite’ were allowed and everyone else just got to watch and want to be part of it. Well, not everyone, but it was meant to make you want to be part of it.

With that updated bit of ‘computer says no’, well, that really does seem like a foreshadowing now. Or perhaps that was part of the prep, to get us used to the idea that a computer will be the ultimate decider for you, with an automated person to push the buttons. And to get us to laugh at it, almost to soften the blow later on when it starts moving in, our memories and training towards it make us vaguely acknowledge it, but humour distracts us from its real objective. Make it more palatable, more acceptable and familiar, and then convince you it’s necessary. Despite having warning signs and footage from other countries where they are a bit further along in that digital dream of someone else, and more of a developing nightmare for others.

And here we find ourselves, with another round of ‘for your safety’ used to try and further that digital nightmare they paint as a dream. Everything running smoothly, everyone smiling and happy in their 15-minute towns owning nothing, sharing, caring and… not working clearly. As they seem to have omitted that part of their strange little scheme, what people will actually do. Not that I think working is something we should have to do, but as they say, the devil makes work for idle hands, I do think people need to have a purpose, be busy, and contribute to the bigger picture of humanity and nature. And unfortunately, in these current times, there seems to be a drive to take away much from people. Their time, money, stability, future, employment, status, identity and whatever else they can think of to strip you of while you live, stand and breath.

Many have been warning of Digital ID trying to muscle its way into society, through various methods, back doors and sneaky manoeuvres by the powers that be. To steer mentality where they would like it, so people accept the technological prison that awaits. I have discussed it at length in many articles, mostly covered in Monitoring Compilation, and countless people have tried to flag it up as an impending issue. To freedoms, health and society as a whole. Making people think things need to be more efficient, transparent and traceable, and that the ones who tout it, will be beholden to it. They will not, just as they aren’t beholden to any of the current laws and rules, breaking them and ignoring them on a daily basis, it not hourly. Corruption, thievery and all sorts of degenerate behaviour, all hiding behind suits and pay checks. Although not so much hiding anymore, kind of in plain sight and as if they are so giddy with greed, they don’t even know or care that we see it. Like an dirty pair of pants that is sticking out of your trouser leg while you strut around thinking you are all that, the government are the trousers, and the politicians are the pants.

And like the greedy little thieves that they are, they can’t help being In Your Pocket, helping themselves to what they have deemed themselves entitled to. Always scheming about how to keep that all in place, now with more hands in the cookie jar than it can take, although it seems that magic money tree mentioned in Money Doesn’t Grow on Trees is at their disposal. So, of course, being able to monitor and control your every moment, would need to follow as they have exhausted their previous avenues of tracking your life and taking your time and money. But it doesn’t seem as though it’s just about money, it feel far more intrusive, invasive and involved than that as we can see in society and what we used to call communities. It seems they will do whatever they can to achieve their exact goal, with many speculations on what that might be. But what does seem clear, is that what we were meant to view as calm and stable times on this island, have now reached an end and we are entering a new time…
