People are SO Damn Stupid! But... I'm optimistic!

Bear with me folks. It starts out a little dark, but I think you’ll appreciate the conclusion.

I appreciate your time, your attention and I hope this warms your heart and fires your passion.

People are so stupid and ignorant these days. If the average person was a poker player in the game of life… they’d be holding their cards with the numbers out. No one is stopping them because... they're too proud. You see, the other players are just smart enough to keep buttering the suckers up, so they want to keep coming back. We call that expertise. It’s bullshit! This system runs on bullshitters and suckers. If your very lucky, you’re not both.

Unfortunately, this stupidity is pervasive across the entirety of society and anyone looking at this situation, in its entirety, has to wonder: When is this disaster going to completely collapse from idiocy. Nearly all of us have our hands in it. We’ve all been dumbed down, we’ve all been misled, we all have severe blind spots of ignorance or conditioned stupidity to contend with. Which allows the system, controlled by what amounts to self-righteous idiots, and despite the utter ridiculousness of its direction, to continue unmolested.

The food is largely garbage, the media, the system of justice, the medical system and every other institution all produce a great deal of garbage. It’s no wonder our oceans are filling up with garbage… it’s a sign of the times. On whole, our weaknesses have been exploited, we’ve been dumbed down to live in a low consciousness, we don’t know how to tell truth from fiction, and what’s left of our character hides behind a little shield of misplaced pride. The psychological mind game being played on people has obviously been very effective. But the end result of all this is... spaceship Mother Earth is headed into a massive dark deep hole.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

I humbly ask those reading this… Is that where you want to go?

Because as dire as the situation is. It’s also ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES EVER!! We don’t have to wait until it explodes and completely burns down to get people’s attention. Practically everybody can benefit from a better philosophy. All we have to do is demonstrate it.

Almost everybody is getting a raw deal in this system. Even the government types who dedicated their life to supposedly helping society are disgusted with this system. We’ve built a society where 99% of people live at the sewage outlet. They’ve been taught to blame each other, expect the worst and fight over the least, all while swimming in the sewage.

If we work together, we can offer many alternatives. Anything better will be jumped at! I’m suggesting I know a way to making that a reality. Showing people a path that everyone can agree on, that has a basis for guaranteeing ethical outcomes, that empowers individuals to be everything they can be and want to be. That incentivizes those who produce value by actually rewarding them with recognition of that value. And for those that do harm, accountability and forgiveness for mistakes.

The ideas are out there. The people willing to work them are out there. The technology to do it is out there.

Is an illusion that we’ve been conditioned to recognize going to stand in our way of getting those things together and making them happen? Because that’s all that is standing in our way… our own ignorance of our own potential.

So, let me summarize, it’s time to let go of the bullshit.
It’s time to stop being the sucker.
It’s time to stop pointing fingers.
It’s time to raise your own consciousness, above pride. It’s time to start caring about ourselves and each other enough to start dedicating at least some of our time towards working on real solutions and being the people we can be. The solutions are ready to be worked. (I call this Ethical Emergence).

If you don’t know what that might be. Follow my lead. I’ve got three main initiatives this year. I think they all have tremendous value if nothing other than fine examples of good ideas that can be exploited. There’s no copyright so if you see what I’m doing and think you can do it better, please do! I’ll add that I’d love to help you, if you think you can! As long as you’re willing to take action, I’m with you.

This is an opportunity for everybody who is willing. If you can see there is a problem, know that there are solutions, if we work together. If you’re willing to work on solutions, you’re welcome here!

The ViVO Initiative is to build a community of people that help each other get things done. That see problems, find potential solutions, experiment until they’ve got one, then take it to market. I'm opening my heart, I'm opening my home, mi casa su casa, I'm offering my knowledge, my wisdom, my council to help... this is my community, my tribe and I want them, you all, to lead wonderful lives! Let's get started... be alive!

The Savoir Faire Initiative is to build a better Anarchapulco. One that brings a World’s Fair of Voluntaryism together in Acapulco 2025. A million voluntaryists in one place to spread the message… that we can deliver alternatives that can make the world a better place for damn near everyone. Certainly a win for everyone who participates and a hell of a reason to have a big get together! There will be so much good news!!!

The Satoshi Awards Initiative. To aid in creating a new paradigm and model for the future that strives for the very best in humanity and the technology that can support it. Awarding those people and ideas that recognize the very best in what human consciousness can achieve.

I feel like I’ve participated in building some excellent ships to sail on. That I’m confident can carry my tribe, my community, to where we want to go. The ships are ready to sail! If your interested in helping me make this happen… in any way. Please join me, you are welcome. If you could use my help with you’re good idea, please contact me. If nothing else, pass this on to two people. Two people who are very capable but sick and tired of the system and the toll it takes. Two people that could use this good news. Because I’ve got a lot more good news to deliver.

Especially for those in Acapulco. Mucho mucho Amor!

Anarchapulco 24/7/365 - Living a weeks worth, every day of the year! If you've been to Anarchapulco, you know what I'm talking about. I'm telling you it gets even better! Spend some time in Acapulco. It will awaken something special inside you. Ask me about the three sunset guarantee.

I strive to be a Peacemaker, an Entrepreneur and a Ambassador for Great Ideas (ie a Problem solver). I also wish to be a Poet, a Mentor and an Ethicist one day. At times I struggle to communicate the passions I have but I endeavor to do so meaningfully from my heart to others. All as I enjoy my life as a never-ending vacation in a place I adore. I care about what I do, I care about the people I do it with and I leave the rest to fall into place. ~ MikeonFire
