The Council of Nine are Misogynist Racist Bigots

[4Dsunrise]

Overcome this world, Satan's lies and I will give freely of the tree of life to whoever thirsts.

Welcome to the soapbox thread IU! Quite the blistering critique of our Saturnal coherts!

So Saturn is always associated with Satan? The name comes from the Romans and I'm pretty sure it's not related to Satan in their mythology. But hey it starts out with the same 3 letters so...

FYI the day of the week called Saturday is also derived from Saturn or if you want, Satan. So is it Satan's day? Do we raise hell on Saturday night? Elton John thinks so. ;-0

Anyhow just a reminder. The OP was part parody and part letting off steam post election.

Which brings me to that clever 'arteest' of image memes, Dekalb_Blues.

First off all I love the pics/captions especially the wandering cosmic speedsters Sammy Sloth and Wayne "the sane" Walrus, and that mischievous Rocky "the rascal" Raccoon who is plotting our fates!

Between pics you say the following.

BEFORE ==>  Typical naïvely innocent Wanderers under the malign power of the Nine-- alles ist kaput!:


AFTER==> Free will regained; sadder but wiser, but-- free!  Infinite Creator be praised!

But the eldritch Nine, undaunted, await their next victims... biding their time... scheming... ever scheming... all is grist for their dark ever-so-finely-grinding cosmic mills...

But seriously, though, I detect a few slight hitches associated with the realization of your socializing scheme, my dear 4Dsunrise: the stubbornly self-reliant, lone-wolf nature of a certain type of Wanderer must be borne in mind...

 ... and (often involving that same type, but others too) the question of operational security* in general; the reality of "psychic greetings" from our esteemed polar reciprocals is not a minor issue in the game. Generally speaking, any formation of humans (including metaphysically-minded gentle souls of lightsome intent) tends to degrade in quality over time unless expert adaptation-processes are attended to.

*OPSEC – Operations Security – "The process of denying potential adversaries any information about capabilities and/or intentions by identifying, controlling, and protecting generally unclassified evidence of the planning and execution of sensitive activities." -- official definition from a Notably Sneaky Agency
(Security for denying potential etc. etc. regarding classified evidence of the planning etc. etc. is a whole 'nother order of magnitude.)

You make some great points when you get 'serious'. Lone Wolf Wanderers who get 'radicalized' by "our esteemed polar reciprocals" can infiltrate and wreak havoc here on Terra Infirma. We've got to be vigilant and discerning of any off color or awkward behavior or utterances that are signs of "psychically influenced greetings". 

Perhaps its a good time to invoke the Buddhist 8-fold path, and in the case of this thread, Right Speech as well as Right Intention and Right Effort -- oh hell all of them -- Right View, Right Livelihood, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration, Right Action...(thank you Scott "the mad Buddha" Mandelker!)

Kidding aside, OPSEC-type thinking and effort is probably the way to approach this Harvest and Reassessment Operation of 3D and 4D beings. Let's get real and have some CE-6 activities to move this operation forward.

Fingers crossed. ;-P
