Time for a quick and optimistic thought. This was the topic of my daily rant today, but I thought Id mention it here too, in case you folks might be somewhat lacking in encouraging sentiments about now. ---------------------------------- Everyone who advocates government gives noble motives as his justification for the state. Members of the political left, right, and everything in between, say they want government to protect and help decent people, and to stop the bad guys. Those who argue in favor of a ruling class by saying but who will feed the poor? or who will keep the bad people in check? are showing a misunderstanding of reality, but are also showing a desire to achieve a world of peace and harmony. The bad news is that statists are horrendously misguided in expecting government to achieve that. And yes, the myth of authority hijacks their good intentions and turns them into fuel for violence and divisiveness. HOWEVER, the good news is that their ultimate goal is to have truth and justice prevail. Why is this important? Because it means that in the vast majority of people, the problem is a misunderstanding, rather than malice. All that needs to happen is for the superstition of authority to be removed from their minds, so that their GOODNESS and VIRTUE can be freed from that lie, and then we can watch humanity finally become what it should be. ------------------------------- P.S. Subscribing to Snarkin with Larken costs a budget-busting, confiscatory $3.79 per month (about 12 cents a day), because Im a greedy capitalist pig-dog. connectpal/larken-rose
