Concerning Demonic Possession of the Masses through Media

This weekend I read the quote "We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false."-- William Casey, CIA Director 1981. I also listened to some Red Ice Radio and it's weird to find something that combines a lot of ideas that I think about all in one place. I think the hosts are intelligent people and they're cleverly combining seemingly separate information. 

I've been trying to imagine humanity through the scope of history, removed from current culture. Humans, as a species, are biologically and psychologically predictable. Of the possibilities for human evolution there is the alien or god intervention theory, wherein, we are created for a particular destiny. Within this ideology we assume that the way we are is to an end. To what end, we cannot be certain. Whatever the end may be, it requires that we have The Question (which plagues us) but not the answer. Here, the thought splits: clockwork god-figure set us in motion and any darkness/deception is of our own human doing or god figure still interacts in our affairs and allows darkness/deception to pervade. The Catholic/Christian ideology would say the devil himself has led us astray which is a separate but almost equal force?
The second possibility is that there is no god, no alien species, just humans through time and evolution being rotten and controlling one another.
Either way, I want to know "who gave you the right?" and "how dare you." Thinking on the recent studies of rich-person hubris you can get an inkling of the dissociation that can happen when power starts setting in.

In the Red Ice Radio show, they discussed a theory of wide-spread, media-induced dissociative identity disorder. The host mentioned trauma-based mind control and suggested that perhaps the chaos allows a demonic presence to find space within the cracks of our minds.
But, I silently contested, demons don't have any power you don't give them. This would be a subliminal, unapproved use of our minds. But I realized that by participating in culture, saturated in ideology, we agree. We are tricked into thinking it's appealing and we accept its presence in our life.

Whether or not demons are actually real or just a manifestation of our own insecurities and issues doesn't matter- it ends up the same way, it means the same thing.

What are our options? What choices do we have? If there's anything I learned from all the books I read it's that you always have a choice. You just have to be aware, alert, and ready to take appropriate action when the opportunity arises. But it's hidden in a culture wash of accepting the wrong things, of approving of our own enslavement.

I don't like coming upon these ideas slowly. I would like to figure out the solution for my own life and for the benefit of those like me. The campaign against us has been carefully orchestrated and magically powered. Great minds have worked against us. It's daunting. But can you just walk away? Is it that simple?

Concerning Surveillance

Most Americans understand that they're being watched. Who exactly is watching us, law enforcers or robots of law enforcers, is unclear. The consequences of this understanding are innumerable.

First, we're meant to assume that we're being recorded at all times. According to proven/accepted information, the government won't look at our data unless they have reason to, where "reason to" is up for interpretation. This panopticon will do two things: scare everyone into accepted submission and/or mentally break them down to the point that they give up trying to adhere to social norms 100% of the time. Currently, other than for "terrorists" there is very little punishment for minor offenses. Any sentencing would inherently admit more power and jurisdiction than we might accept as a society. It's better to ease into this sort of thing, start with the terrorists.

Secondly, there's the issue of privacy. It is not clear what exactly is private information anymore. Between the US government and its contractors, corporations like Google and Facebook, and any information I choose to share with friends and family, I am not sure there's any secret or piece of information that someone else doesn't know. A lot of people are up-in-arms about their loss of privacy. 

I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out what value privacy actually has. Privacy, secrecy, and lies are all made of the same stuff. At best, privacy protects us from unfair jurisdictions. No human is perfect and our privacy allows us to cover our mistakes, keep our law-breaking out-of-sight from potential enforcement. Without unfair regulations, what could privacy ever offer us that we actually need? The attack shouldn't be on the protection of our privacy, but on the abilities of those in power to punish.

What are the implications of recording the daily comings and goings of all American citizens?
There's the vanity that prevents anyone from being truly angry. There's a wealth of  information to be gleaned. Presently, knowledge of cycles, interests, desires, and habits can be capitalized on for advertising and other forms of mind control, certainly. Technology and our adaptation to it is slowly giving marketers this power. 

I am more interested in the implications of the future. Imagine in 50 years, the release of all this information, wherein anyone could witness the activities of a young person who later became a world changer or their parents or grandparents. The first inclination is that it would be embarrassing to have every minute of your illegal cell phone recording or webcam streaming information to be seen by anyone, because those are private moments. But, by the time any of that data is viewed by anyone else in the general public, they will no longer think there's anything taboo about it. We are entering into an age of full transparency.

This slow and unknowing transition from assumed privacy to the  realization of full transparency might actually be the most beneficial. Since we're unknowingly being watched, we still aren't afraid to be ourselves in our most private moments. We can hope that constant surveillance, instead of causing us to conform to societal standards, might actually help us shape into more confident individuals, unafraid to express who we really are at all times. The inevitable loss of privacy will cause an abrupt confrontation between anyone "in charge" i.e. law makers, media, bosses, and  what is actually a true representation of human kind. Rather than what we present behind masks to the world, we will have to get used to merging our private and public selves in a seamless whole, and not go crazy in the process. 

The drive to work today was really ethereal. The sky was ice-white and a thick fog hung frozen in the air. Despite the inclement weather, everyone went pretty fast on I-25 and I was on-time for work. The sun started to shine behind the fog just as I neared my exit and by the time I got to work the sky was blue and clear as any summer day.

New Years Resolutions

Every year during this time I lose my mind. I dive like an Olympian into my brain and turn into the most introspective curiosity on two legs. On one hand it's very productive. I get a lot figured out and figure out all the things I need to do to really capitalize on the upcoming 12 months. On the other hand, I am rendered nearly incapable of speech for 5 or 6 days and tend to cry a lot. This can cause my loved ones to worry about me and I don't like that one bit. Essentially, I take my resolutions very seriously.

Unicole's New Years Resolutions for 2014

1. Say, "Yes" to healthy food. Instead of saying no to candy or sugar which I won't do out of spite, I'm trying a new route this year inspired by positivity.
2. Be kinder, more understanding, and patient, i.e. complain less.
3. Get a book published
4. Become more self sustained. Buy a dairy share, make cheese, raise more chickens, grow more food, weave more cloth, etc.
5. Learn Ableton
6. Focus on helping others
7. Spend more time getting better at things I do
8. Save 1/3 of my income
9. Find a job that will pay me a ridiculous amount of money where I am respected for doing work that is enjoyably challenging in a work space that is comfortable, and with coworkers who are interesting and kind.
10. Sell 150 t-shirts

On Reality

I have my doubts about reality.

Though we recognize the scientific potential for multiple dimensions, we believe that we are only experiencing three with the addition of time. We are trapped in space, trapped on the perpetual ship of time, trapped in our own minds, and in our own bodies. We know our own bodies are limited in their capabilities of understanding even the things we are presented with. We know there is light that is off the visible spectrum, sound out of hearing range, and an infinite range of electromagnetic pulses and waves that our instruments and tools can only begin to guess at. 

If that wasn't enough, our brains are only comfortable with things that can find a place within our preexisting structure of understanding. Language, for some reason, is the substance of this framework. Perhaps sharing our experience somehow cements it as real for us. While language allows us to interpret, comprehend and relate our daily lives, it can also be extremely limiting.

I believe in an ultimate reality. I believe that humans have the capacity to comprehend the fact that an ultimate reality exists. There are a lot of esoteric ideologies concerning the human place on the planet, in the cosmic universe, and as a spiritual or energetic being. The problem comes when you realize every single one of these ideologies is simply an interpretation of experience.

In this diagram we see the different Esoteric Thought Forms, as represented by colored shapes, stretching up through mental reality, touching each other, touching the edge of our understanding as limited by our being humans on Planet Earth.

I believe that Mental Reality has just as much legitimacy as Physical Reality. I believe that True Reality or Ultimate Reality is a conglomerate of all the realities added together throughout time - but I also don't think that any of our Esoteric Ideologies come close to comprehending the biggest picture. 

Additionally, I believe our Mental Reality has a huge influence on how we perceive Actual Physical Reality. Thus, the Human Experience of Reality is equal parts of our mental understanding and our physical manifestation.

All of this gets me pretty upset and I think that might be the more important question. Why are humans given the gift of the pressing question but such limited tools for the answers? And why do I feel as though this question has been bestowed upon us as a race from some greater hand?

Recently, the consideration was posed to me, What if the world is mere pointless chaos and the only organization, the only purpose is invented by the human mind to cope? While, to some extent, I believe that to be true, that our realities are constructed from our own understanding of them, the thought still causes me to tremble. And why? What should it matter if I have created my own purpose or bought into some other, better spoken individual's interpretation of the Things That Happen and reality beyond perception? Why do I have such a strong desire for that outermost ring of understanding? It must be born of some human fear of inadequacy, of misunderstanding what is actually happening and acting in good faith on misinformation to the detriment of myself or another.

Above all things, I desire to do as little harm as possible, though it seems that merely by existing, given the evidence, life itself requires such regular destruction that I can hardly stand it. Thus, imagined ideologies, esoteric thought forms to escape into and pretend, with my human brain trapped in this body, trapped in time, on Planet Earth, that somehow, I will do good.
