So a regular customer and I were discussing the music industry when he cautiously used the term Illuminati. The conversation became more serious as we realized that both of us have our eyes open to the real world. We talked about Spears and Bynes and I stated that these women became products instead of people and have been manipulated and molested by TPTB.
This customer, now my friend, explained to me something that has been on my mind since.
We are all products. As he explained, science has given us reasonable suspicion that there is no God or afterlife and that in the vastness of the universe there is an abundance of various kinds of life. In this realization certain people and groups have concluded that with the lack of a soul, or whatever else would make a person a significant creation, people truly are something to be exploited for personal gain because in ten years no one will care, in a hundred years no one will know, and the whole of the universe considers this entire planet to be insignificant. He further explained that this is why the nuts are running the asylum and the average person doesn't know or care because the average person believes that decency resides in us all.
He asked me to imagine if a person's importance was measured by their good deeds and caring for their fellow man. Now imagine that the percentage of crazy money junkies became just as obsessed with making the world a better place. I think about that often and described the same technology could be what delivers us from this lust for money paradigm. Free energy, free food, free manufacturing, free advanced medicine...these things are all within our grasp. He may be a bit more cynical than me, he replied that TPTB will never let us have these things because it shifts power from them to us.
Just found it amazing that I could have this kind of conversation with a small business owner in his fifties and trying to strike some conversation here. What are your thoughts?

Sadly even though we find ourselves "waking up" to the real Powers That Be scenario currently in control - we still view it as ENTERTAINMENT and not as FIRE UNDER OUR ASSES. It's becoming another thing to have learned from Google and forgotten just as quickly.
The fact of the matter is this: Power is not given; it is seized! One of, some of us, all of us must seize it. We know from whom, and we know how - we're just too damn comfortable to actually break through the matrix and do it.
So for now, we enjoy the entertainment aspect of knowing about it - all of it.
We truly are pathetic suckers - and that includes my simple self - the most.
Actually there is a so-called group of fighters/decapitators taking on the matrix architects, but we can't refer to them in any other fashion than disdainfully. You know of whom I speak.
