Exploitation on Society

“The shortest and surest way to live with honour in the world, is to be in reality what we would appear to be; and if we observe, we shall find, that all human virtues increase and strengthen themselves by the practice of them.”- Socrates

The world is a place, which today is far more complicated than in the times of our forefathers. It is vivid and beautiful, bound in glimmering neon lights, the information of the universe twisted and bound in our hands. The mass of that which is in the cosmos moving to rest in the very center of one child’s pupil. Yet, so subtly this potential is tainted by the utmost of sins, the supporting worship of idiocy. Our society on the whole, happily containing its perfect people to know nothing, to in fact not even realize how the world came before them.

I am an individual in my pride refuses to bow to such insulting ideas. It is not dark and marring for what it is…but for what it assumes we are incapable of attaining.

The world pushing these small cuts of fine gold, into the very soul of all those people who could do so much. Who could dance and sing with such pride in beauty the heavens themselves would weep for happiness. Those whom in the very instrumental being of their soul, know that the world is not something wrapped in plastic and bound with a price tag. In this modern time the soul is treated no better than any of the past. The pricing has merely changed; bloodlines are not the speakers for our policies, and politicians, the dollar replacing that falsity

Our chains still exist, they are merely painted differently, the potential of the human race whipped away in a stuttering rotation of the money wheel.

My question to each and every one of you is this, what is the purpose of mankind if we are so easily manipulated? If free thought, choice, and wish is totally destroyed by the flashing of advertisements, what will remain?

The saddest thing to me is that nothing will remain at all, and that is what I choose to fight against. I have found my one and only fear, hatred, and purpose.

“The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.” – Socrates
