The Horrors of STS

[Ali Quadir]

The master is the social contract. How do we not accept that? We have to get back to nature and self sufficiency in order to not accept slavery LoL.

You are correct of course, but when we arrive at that point of self sufficiency we suddenly discover we have less freedom than we had under the master. You want to focus on the thing you're good at and enjoy doing? You can't you have to chop firewood and do a thousand other chores that you don't like doing but which are necesary for your survival.. Just like everyone else on the planet.

The system is unfair and it is far from perfect... But it is infinitely more liberating than being self reliant.

It is a fact of life that we must depend on each other. This is not a weakness it is our strength. It guarantees that we will forever lift ourselves upwards. And even the efforts of people who would not be able to sustain themselves when left to their own devices uplift the whole.

Horror is what happens when a minority of psychopaths learn to play the system to the point that the majority of the generated wealth and wellbeing flows their way. The presence of the system is not the flaw. The flaw is that the majority of good people allowed this to happen.

If the majority stops believing the psychopaths "that the only way for the system to work is for a few to get abundantly fat while literally vastly more starve to death." then it's quickly over for those psychopaths.

Freedom is in the mind. You don't need a master to be a slave. And you don't need the absence of a master to be free. The structure of society is something you can use as a ladder to get to where you want to be, or abuse as an excuse to not get off your ass.. Those masters are our own creations they have no other power than the power given to them by the majority. If we were to send them all to a paradise planet on the next moon rocket out. We'd have chosen new masters to lead us in the exact same way before the year ends.

When that attitude changes, and it's changing at a rapid pace. Then the masters will automatically become marginalized.
