It's time we realised that it is our responsibility to challenge what we see and hear at every oppertunity.
I've spent last night and this morning listening to yesterdays hearings, which involved more horrowing accounts from the victims who had been exposed to a lifetime of abuse. Almost all of them stated that the abuse, be it physical, sexual or mental, began with their own birth parents. This is a sad fact of life that we must admit to ourselves, some parents are just not fit for service and instead of nurturing the most dearest thing in life, our children, they instead see them as a burden. Many parents like this are probably perpetuating the abuse they recieved, or have been corrupted so much by the ill of living in the modern world with addictive and corrosive passtimes, such as gambling, drink and drugs, that they no longer have the time to care for anyone other than themselves. As I type this out I feel I am already beggining to make excuses for these warped parents, pointing the finger at the way society has been designed to destroy it cohesive bonds through an industrial age that demands more and more working hours from everyone wishing to live "the high life". Although I know this is a fact and explained thoroughly in the documentary "A century of self" I have to also point the finger at ourselves and the way we have wilted to such bas temptations. Money is the root of all evil and empires can only be created by the wealthy. For those living at the top of the tree it is essential to keep those below you fastened tightly to the floor. Allowing us all to have a fair go at life is not good for business and while 1st world countries now have enough wealth and technology to end this demonic theatre, they somehow find it more fun to leave the status quo as it is, maybe just so it reflects back on them, exagerating their own good fortune and happiness. I mean how can one know he is doing well in life if he/she has nothing to compare it to?
Revolutions used to reset the balance, for a day, a week or maybe even a month, and then those with less faith in mankind would eventually covet their newly found position of responsibility and look to secure it for their own, not wanting to step aside if there was ever a better person for the job. Time and time again we have gone through this cycle of revolution to point our species in a more peaceful direction, then only to find more devious ways to corrupt society until the next revolt.
Nowadays, revolution is a fantasy and the balance of strength and essential utilities is firmly in the grasp of a very small and selfishly evil few. This puts us all in dire straights and although we still have power in our numbers, we have truly lost the battle of the mind and that is the crux of it all. Creating banks and centrilised control grids has removed much of our ability to funcion without this "silver-spoon", but our will for freedom and freespeach has still managed to hold on to enough sense to know better and fight back. Sadly, times have moved on and so have the tactics of those at the top and we all now live in a time were we battle not for money or status(As we all know that that is for the privallaged few, or maybe sometimes the fortunate), but for our own minds and sanity. Up is now down, right is now wrong and to be outspoken is seen as a sign of insanity. Just keep your head down and make the best of what you have for those in your immediate field of vision, that is now the staus quo.
I have no answer to this, nor do I have a remedy. Other than buying a few barrels of gunpowder and martyring myself, I don't think I will ever get my point across and the feeling of hopelessness is upon me. I see more and more people living on the streets but I am no longer even allowed to refer to them as "Homeless". Instead, I am told they are "Rough-sleepers" and my mind is being trained to think that they bring it upon themselves. But I have never been a person who conforms and my common sense has always been kept sharp, this is why I live an awkward exsistence and find it hard to hold down a job. Working 40+ hours a week is no problem for me but giving 25% of that hard earned cash away to a governing body which openly destroys my brothers and sisiters will never sit well with me. I try to instill this in my daughter and teach her the real right from wrong, but even that is getting harder and harder to achieve.
In short, our children are a danger to modern society and in particular they are a danger to the status quo. The internet has opened a pandoras box and the generation below us are the first to be born with this technology and know how to utilise it more than we ever could. This inquiry may be about historic child abuse but we all know it still goes on today and is happily facilitated by our government to continue as long as it needs to be. Hearing the effects and of this abuse from the core participants in this inquiry has shown some very common traits and they obviously still continue today. Unruley behaviour and parents caught in a trap that leads them to neglect their own. This all turns out more units and profit for our ruling elite, retarding our society and placing us against one another by the most basic form of attack... Divide and conquer.
As I said at the beggining of this post; it is up to you and I, to keep our witts about us and stand shoulder to shoulder with each other. While we allow ourselves to be weakened by convinience and apathy we degrade our own future and that of the ones we love. Education is key and holding your enemies close is a good tactic.
