Considering that we are manually uploaded with these languages with the prime directive being to communicate, it is not even a big curiosity that we fail to question many of the phrases and paradigms that are so commonly utilized. I do not have the linguistic chops to go through the steps of digestion in etymology of these constructs(not that it is at all too difficult).
There are a few everyday sayings that, if given a proper context, could be connected in a way that sheds light on unspoken and unseen elements. Hiding in plain sight invariably. We take this for granted. We are aware of that there are actual things as clandestine groups because the myths do not simply arise from imagination. They arise from the attempts. They arise from sloppiness & rebellion. But we know that the best way to hide anything is to house it in an absurd condition. This way, the bridge to a logical land is deniable. Where there is no certainty, there is life.
I will take a big jump here: the Illuminati Yeah, I took it there. As of the 2000's, there has been no release from the accusations or beliefs that their presence was behind some public catastrophe. The re-emergence of these tenuously connected groups that certainly exist yet are shrouded in secrecy has not helped assuage public skepticism. I have resisted the words for the longest time. I watched too many Zeitgeist movies. I watched too many things that have since come to light and been shown to be very accurate even if hair-brained. It is an intimidating prospect to realize the reach & grasp of a secret organization. It is a debilitating concept to think that anybody could affect our colloquial speech patterns. Given we have regional differences & there is so much discord from one area to the next, to perpetuate these manipulations all one would need to do is to implant the ideas in our media. What goes in the brain, comes out the brain. This is a simple truth of life as a human. And we do not need to directly receive the media to be affected by it. It is mind boggling.
I am seeing phrases and idioms being utilized in a sort of cascading effect. I hear it from the smartest people first and so on down the line until the densest of those among us are caught parroting these familiar lines. They use them as if they understood them. They use them as if they are sharing love and in some twisted way, they are. Even as the blinded little sheep they have become.
The idea is disgusting to me; that I am actually beginning to buy into a conspiracy theory or at the very least, the premise of accepting one. I am not one who lives based on faith. I critically analyze every scene I can. I do my best utilization of the tools I have been granted within the reaches of my desires. However, it has come to a point and I have a wide enough array of opinions to see quite a few trends. It is depressing but who can stand being depressed? My goal is to remain informed and yet somehow remain happy. Mutually exclusive ideals - sorta.
Not making up connections where there are none. There is no point to show people. The people see the connections they want to see. It is called inattentive blindness. Motorcycles get crashed into because other people are not prepared to see them. Boats have not been seen on the distance because the idea of them was so foreign that they were simply not acknowledged. Socially, these things all fall within the scope of comprehension. People are not prepared to see conspiracies because so many are a waste of time. Inattentive blindness makes sense in this application and in the action of hiding things in plain sight. I argued at this PhD because she was proliferating the idea of conspiracy and I told her to simplify her views. And yet, I am the one to come around. There was too much truth in her uncanny words. What can be said?
So to my point; to the purpose of this post: the phrases are ways of shifting society subtly. These things are fed to us via scripts that have cemented suggestions. The commercials that have requirements for desire. These things are not entirely left up to the chance of creativity. Some of these things are designed to go the way they do. I have seen it. I have been a part of some of these proceedings and that I am only now putting together the pieces...well...I am dense and human. I have troubles. I had troubles. I have come to accept life as it is. I have come to love every moment. I have embraced my darkness & my light. Emptiness. Fullness. Everything. Now, time has hiatus. Stillness is required. Reasons. It is not that I am unaware of how hackneyed all of this rings. Blah. I do know that I sound out of touch. I am. I have nothing external that makes me desire to buy in to this society. This world. Why anchor myself to soured land? My limitations are my languages. I would be happy with enough food and a patch of land. Those days were long gone before I even hit the ground. The world is now run on the idea of imagination. The purpose or worth of things has been bloated with inflation to staggering heights. People will pay you what you charge. They will, especially when they cannot do what you can do. The highest card wins and the degrees are the playing cards. Invest in that paper card to play. It is not absolute but at times, it is infallible; invincible. It is the accord with which people engage you. It is your designation as long as you play within the boundaries. And you have yet to question whether there is a queen ant? Nah. There is one.
Thinking about it, I actually should have titled this 'Paranoia: light and love'.
My next blog is "how to sound crazy as a loon and get people to think you aren't wrapped too tight". I see now that words don't cut it. I guess I really don't know nothing.
