This is the structure, the fly-trap, the Postage Stamp Consensus or
Perceptual Mainframe, which represents that incredibly narrow
band of perceived possibility delivered by the ‘education’ system,
mainstream media, science and medicine. From the earliest age the
download begins with parents who have themselves succumbed to
the very programming their children are about to go through. Most
parents don’t do this out of malevolence and mostly it is quite the
opposite. They do what they believe is best for their children and
that is what the program has told them is best. Within three or four
years comes the major transition from parental programming to fullblown
state (Cult) programming in school, college and university
where perceptually-programmed teachers and academics pass on
their programming to the next generations. Teachers who resist are
soon marginalised and their careers ended while children who resist
are called a problem child for whom Ritalin may need to be
prescribed. A few years a er entering the ‘world’ children are under
the control of authority figures representing the state telling them
when they have to be there, when they can leave and when they can
speak, eat, even go to the toilet. This is calculated preparation for a
lifetime of obeying authority in all its forms. Reflex-action fear of
authority is instilled by authority from the start. Children soon learn
the carrot and stick consequences of obeying or defying authority
which is underpinned daily for the rest of their life. Fortunately I
daydreamed through this crap and never obeyed authority simply
because it told me to. This approach to my alleged ‘be ers’ continues
to this day. There can be consequences of pursuing open-minded
freedom in a world of closed-minded conformity. I spent a lot of time
in school corridors a er being ejected from the classroom for not
taking some of it seriously and now I spend a lot of time being
ejected from Facebook, YouTube and Twi er. But I can tell you that
being true to yourself and not compromising your self-respect is far
more exhilarating than bowing to authority for authority’s sake. You
don’t have to be a sheep to the shepherd (authority) and the sheep
dog (fear of not obeying authority).
