RE: [Family Protection] Building Defenses

in #familyprotection7 years ago (edited)

An absolutely awesome post @lturner. The problem with many of us is our misplaced trust in organisations that we believe are set up to defend us and our faith in a system that has been time and time again, proven to be unfit for purpose.

Anyone can fall victim to this system by a twist of fate such as those you have described and your advice to build relationships, especially within your local community and neighbourhood, should not be taken lightly. But pointing out the fact that those who choose to go against the established societal norms will most likely be those targeted by agencies which on the outside may appear malevolent but when fully investigated, reveal themselves to be agencies of deception and profiteers from misery, is a crucial piece of advice that these men and women must surely heed.

Great job, my friend. Hope your day is going well! :)

Thank you!

We certainly are geared to respect and trust "systems", as if a system is more reliable than fickle humans. Problem is...systems are often heartless, irrational, cruel things. You can't develop a relationship with one. You can't be kind to one. A system can't look at you and see you for who you are.

They are not benevolent. Sometimes they can be useful, but they seem to always become dangerous. And that's what's happening with our "child protection" system now.
