Fear, Cupcakes & Nudity

I am your Commander now. Do what I tell you to do. Don't do what I tell you not to do. If you disobey me, you will suffer great pain because I will have you humiliated and punished until no end. So, your first law is to submit to my demands. Good luck inside that little weak mind of yours to make the right decision. You are lost without me. You can choose to hate or love me. But without a choice you will be left to die alone in solitary confinement! And I will make sure that your screams to be heard will be ignored.
Does that first paragraph sound like a familiar technique used to control the masses? Well, it reminds me of organized religion. It also reminds me of militaries, and even street gangs in some way. Do you want to be controlled in that way? Not all religions are that way. But who do you want to follow? A book, a man, an idea, a Commander? Or do you want to follow the cupcake? Do you want a reward for doing what is asked of you? The ingredients inside the cupcake cause you to be more dependent on your leader. You have become addicted to your reward. That addiction causes you to lose your freedom. You are being controlled and there isn't anything you can do about it. What is inside of our cupcakes? For some people it is fame. For other people it is money. And for yet others it is the freedom to walk around the city as naked as a jay bird.
Sticks and carrots. How do you prefer being controlled? I want to do the things that I know will lead to peace. First thing is security. We need to defend against people, animals, bacteria and the weather. Next thing is pleasure. I want good food and lots of intercourse. Here's the problem. No leader alive seems to know what things will lead to peace. Effin' nobody knows. If they did we'd have had peace by now. Are we just a bunch of savage animals without the intelligence to save our own asses from extinction? Well, my logic is valid and sound. So, if you want to follow ideas that will lead to peace, then I'm the guy to listen to. If you just want to continue believing that peace will only happen after the future arrives, then continue being the arrogant, ignorant, animal you were born to be. As for me, I remove myself from this slave-system way of thinking. I'm creating ideas that will lead to the real way to peace and survival. My writing will be read and preserved whether other people agree with me or not. Be the critic that I expect you to be. Go tell somebody about it too.

I agree with your priciples 100%, but people have that small little weakness, ego. Criticism hurts their ego and they quit listening and start defending. You have the ideas though your logic is sound. I admire and share your enthusiasm.

This is a refreshing and enjoyable read! I disagree about the bacteria. It is my experience that once we befriend them we get healthy immune systems. Oh, and the weather, we must work with it, rather than against it. I cannot help but think same applies to people and animals. Once we work with them, rather than against them, heck, who knows, even friendship is possible.
Peace to you, Jordan, and Tag, You're It! Visit my blog and follow instructions. Have fun!

Are people being controlled if they're discovering they can choose anything they like? Or that they can choose to be happy rather than sad? Or that they can indeed walk around naked if that is their personal individual joy?
If they're making their own decisions, is it control?
It's when they're following the decisions of some other person or group where it's really control.
Food for thought. Are the thoughts leading up to these decisions really authentic? How many subliminal messages do we come across in supermarkets, shopping malls, in the media, and so on? And are we influenced by them?
