 Differences?  What Differences?

Picture
Believe me, there are no differences. People are all the same, men can be women. Women can be men. Adults can be babies. Children can be adults, all based on how they feel. If some people see themselves as rich, we should pretend that they are, so they don’t feel alienated. What is wealth anyway but an artificial construct, just like gender? So, the next step would be to give them money. That way they won’t feel left out.

“But, what if they feel left out anyway?”


Well, in that case, we have to keep pretending that they are whatever they say they are. So they don’t feel bad. And keep giving them money, to reinforce the illusion, you see.


“Yeah, but what if they keep feeling bad regardless?”


In that case, it's society’s fault. Society must have done something wrong.


“How do you know that it’s society’s fault? Maybe it was their parents.”


​Where did their parents learn this behavior? From society. Therefore, it’s society’s fault. You see, wherever there’s a connection of any kind, you’ll find the cause. And, because “Cause and Effect” are science, all relationships, no matter how vague, are causal. Meaning, they’re science.


“Wait a minute. Are you trying to tell me that the reason that I failed math is because of society? What if I just don’t like math? What if I just didn’t study? Is that society’s fault. Too?”


Yep. It sure is. All bad things are the result of external forces. And, where do external forces come from? Society.


“Does that means that society is bad?”


No. Society is good. All that’s needed is to find the right people to lead, and then everything will be OK.


“But, if people come from society, how can they be trusted.”


Don’t worry. Trust me. I’ll tell you what to think and how to vote. Then, society will be good.


“So, it’s all about giving the right people, all the power to think for everybody else because they’re wise and we’re not?”


Yes, that sounds about right.


“But, what if they aren’t wise? Then what?


Just pretend they’re wise, and then they’ll be wise. I hope that answers your questions?


“Not really.”


Good. I’m glad I could help.
