TYRANNY BY LIFESTYLE
In the ’80’s, when Trickle Down was just beginning to be inculcated by Establishment and the wonders of globalism were envisioned (how did that turn out?) a derogatory put-down to people who were skeptical, was the label Luddite.
- 1. DEROGATORYa person opposed to new technology or ways of working.”a small-minded Luddite resisting progress”
- 2.HISTORICALa member of any of the bands of English workers who destroyed machinery, especially in cotton and woolen mills, that they believed was threatening their jobs (1811–16).
Many people see the advantages of technology and progress when each serves humanity, but are skeptical when the inevitable corruption turns servants into masters.
An example is student debt, that eventually often enslaves the debt holder to the system she/he once imagined would be their savior.
Example 2—-Politician-enforced building of ball stadiums, bankrolled by local taxpayers, that drain cash out of the community and into the pockets of out-of-region owners and investors who fund political campaigns for said politicians.
Example 3—-Transportation that has been transformed into quasi computers, when the average vehicle owner only wants transportation. Inculcation of acceptance by consumers byway of the entertainment industry and marketing, convinces they need to drive computers that are too extravagant and delicate for local infrastructure and Climate conditions.
These are examples of lifestyle that enslaves humanity to industry and servitude.
C-Span continues to uncover interesting notions from callers. At 7:52AM a caller (paraphrase) asks the host to look up info about Trump who apparently urged Powell to raise interest rates anticipatory of inflation that the Profit Trump apparently foresaw. Memory will inform that inflation was predestined by said Prophet in his tax break for the wealthy along with the Trump tariff. In particular, a tariff placed upon imports of products after globalism had sent US jobs and manufacturing overseas is nothing other than inflationary to no good end, except for the government to balance the tax break for the wealthy on the backs of the public.
Some people are in tune with the work of The Creator as presented directly and personally, some people aren’t and rely on the insinuation of institutionalized religion.
Technology and progress must compliment human lifestyle and nature rather than become our master.

Many believe that technology can save us, but the Lords are not so sure: “We found that we cannot rely on large-scale and unproven technologies alone to achieve the transition to net zero. Behaviour change is also needed. –end of treehugger info–

Some people see organized religion as the Establishment disruption between the work of The Creator and humanity, for profit and power.

The official story is something like “a billion snow crabs disappeared.” If that sounds fishy to you, keep reading. Let’s dive into the ecology, oceanography, & geopolitical history of the Bering Sea. A science thread on crabs, corruption, & collapse:

Calling on the tribe to share this message and the debut of our Love Letters to God video far and wide today:
Standing Rock is a dream. The epicenter for our morality and dignity. A place where dark and light communicate and they work it out.
Standing Rock is a vision. The wildest manifestation of our ancestors. The heart of humanity and the blood of the Earth. Water.—–end of tweet—–
Maybe it is less about imagining a different lifestyle as it is remembering genuine humanity and nature.
Buddhist practitioners over millennia seem to have stumbled onto ideas of quantum physics byway of meditation, long before did modern-day scientists. One imagines this was possible byway of what organized religion could label as The Holy Ghost.
As one who is better-versed in Buddhism than Christianity, one has delved into Christian writing. Currently that is The Gospel of John by William Barclay. This has rather confirmed that which one suspected. According to Barclay, impressions by disciples were translated from Jewish-culture understanding into Gentile-targeted language in an apparent marketing campaign. Straining of scripture to suit Establishment continued.
https://www.worldhistory.org/Diet_of_Worms/ –Martin Luther began questioning the precepts of the Church, privately, c. 1513 when he resolved a spiritual crisis he was suffering after reading Saint Paul‘s Epistle to the Romans. The passage from Romans 1:17, which includes the line “the just shall live by faith”, led to his conviction that many of the policies mandated by the medieval Church were unbiblical as they needlessly imposed on believers burdens unsupported by scripture. In time, Luther would question the entire vision, hierarchy, and authority of the Church, but, at first, his objections focused on the sale of indulgences.

To get back to William Barclay, his introduction admits that some people can and do see and experience The Creator byway of the evidence before them, unencumbered by written words.
Being toward the end of Volume 2 of The Gospels Of John, one suspects this is what Jesus was attempting to share.
As one who has only met one person who understood the experience of the big and small at the same time, that occurs during meditation, it is understandable that to attempt to convey this experience can be difficult.
The short-cut of “believe in me and you’ll be fine” makes sense.
Meanwhile, Indigenous and Nature Way practitioners seem okay to take the long way home……..tomato….tomoto……whatever floats your boat.
To respect the path of others seems sensible.
https://portside.org/2022-10-16/quantum-entanglement-wins-2022s-nobel-prize-physics?utm_source=portside-general&utm_medium=email –Certain aspects of quantum physics appear to be totally random. But are they really random, or do they only appear random because our information about these systems are limited, insufficient to reveal an underlying, deterministic reality? Ever since the dawn of quantum mechanics, physicists have argued over this, from Einstein to Bohr and beyond.

Apologies for the mixture of topics, but to some people, they’re all one and the same.
