There is always a price to be paid for foolishness. Doesn’t matter if we are aware of the foolishness or not. Since the beginning of “civilization” there has been a need for the rulers to operate by one set of rules while convincing the masses to live by another set of rules. Hence the breakdown between master (or natural) morality and slave morality. One is for the rulers one is for the ruled. Religions, laws, customs, and more have all been part of this. This isn’t to say that these things are purely for manipulation but they have been useful tools for the rulers to co-opt for their own ends.
The modern version of religion “political ideologies” applies just as much. Something that I see very often with males who are starting their “unplugging process” and realizing that they’ve been sold a lie and have been working for not their own good but the good of others is anger (and justifiable so). When you realize that your work and sacrifice has gone to benefit another often at the expense of yourself obviously you’re going to feel anger. However too many allow this anger to transform into weakness in the form of bitterness and pouting like little children.
A Harsh Truth About Reality
While some anger is understandable the anger should be direct at yourself and your own stupidity and weakness for allowing yourself to be taken advantage like that. It’s always best to direct anger in a positive direct towards becoming stronger and better as opposed to letting it turn into resentment, bitterness, or self-hate. The truth of the matter is stupidity and weakness are always punished, no matter what your masters say. So if your master says just “spread the other cheek” and you’ll get rewards in heaven for taking it you’re just as much at fault for being dumb and weak enough to be taken advantage of as is the person taking advantage of you.
Now obviously this is different when we’re children and we were all pretty much indoctrinated into a slave moral system of one sort or another from a young age but upon adolescence and especially adulthood this changes. We have no one to blame but ourselves. So much of man’s current anger comes from believing the lies of a slave moral system (whether Liberal democracy, feminism, forms of Christianity, or anything else) and getting mad when it didn’t work out for him. Sort of like a male feminist getting mad when he’s respected the woman he wants 100 times and she goes out and bangs the jacked right wing asshole.
Serving Another Above Yourself Will Get You Nowhere
And will always be punished. Not saying you can’t help out tribal brothers or family of course but helping another group above your own self-interest is the dumbest thing there is. And that group should rightfully take advantage of you and then dispose of you when your dumb ass is no longer useful. Again weakness and stupidity are always, always, always punished. Being a good slave is never rewarded it just gets you spit on, laughed at, beat down, and eventually destroyed…and rightfully so. Again doesn’t matter what lies your master or their morality system teaches you.
Put yourself and your own interests first. Have the morality of a master, not a slave. Don’t listen to and adhere to the lies of others that works for their benefit and against your own. If men worked for their own interest there wouldn’t be nearly the sickness there is today, nor the anger. One of the biggest take-aways I want you to get from all this is that if you are angry you need to direct that to making sure you are never weak or stupid enough to be taken advantage of again instead of wallowing in self-pity or bitterness.
Nature Always Wins
Things always eventually get sorted out. Reality and nature can only be denied or held back so long. But eventually the dam bursts or the volcano erupts (pick your metaphor). Weakness and stupidity are always punished no matter what your holy book says (everyone has a holy book not just religious people and it’s not always a book). Put yourself and your own interests first and everything else falls into place, you’d be a fool to ever do anything else. And again this isn’t to say you can’t help others, don’t be dumb. Just make sure they’re vetted and deserving of your help that is all. And don’t sacrifice yourself for those that could care less about you. Serving the “other” above you and your own will always end up badly for you and rightfully so.
