Ray, unfortunately the laws only apply to poor people.. Rich people make their own laws or change them and the government and law enforcement people they pay off don't enforce any laws against them, just enforce laws against us for them.. Its pretty evident what is going on now.. From the highest offices across this land nobody is doing anything about what these pharmaceutical companies and health people are doing across this land, when they all know these vaccines are poison, otherwise they would not be scared to look at it, or help the people because they already know its killing people, that's what they want, so that is why they are not doing anything.. When will people get it and take the kids gloves off..

You are asking a lot of valid and relevant questions must be answered before the slightest improvement might be implemented. I am not going to pose as an oracle who is in possession of the answers, but allow me to reflect on your contribution.

Your "elephant in the room" strangely corresponds with my reaction to my students' writing what others "should" do. I usually asked them, "Are you God to tell others what to do?"

My next most frequent objection in my classes to my students' writing was in response to their using the 1st Person Singular, which is mostly a rhetorical device that serves the purpose of creating a mob that cannot be questioned any forther. My note ususally said, "Who is we?" While it is an ancient rhetorical device, it is inaccurate at best and manipulative at worst, unless it is clearly defined (e.g. Bidet saying, "Our patience is running out" uses intimidation by force de jour without ever clarifying who "we" is). Regarding your question, it is not "we" who drag people to court, but enforcers of the ones in power, legit or not. People without power need no reason to play along, if they don't want to be accused of being accomplices to crime...

In small communities, eliminating crime is personal and stems from the idea of an envirnment that the participants collectively condone. Outsiders are not welcome and renegades must be shunned (prison is also a form of shunning). Identifying trespassers comes from the often-abused term of "community standards," which has become another manipulative term (according to this logic, "you'd better shut the f* up, now the community is speaking!"). In small, traditional communities, everything is public and there is no need for legal theory.

Legal theory enters the scene is large conglomerations of humans thrown together in atomized "communities," where people do not know each other anymore and are forced into roles to the point that they tend to lose touch even with themselves. Without standards, there is no law and without laws, there is no stability, which opens up full access to anarchy. Anarchy always straightens out into some sort of stable setup, where social mobility tends to be frozen, paving the path towards anarchy again.

Power always becomes centralized sooner or later, unless there are interruptions in the process (e.g. disease of a new power showing up). I theorize that the ultimate holders of power are now so dissociated from the participants of their own realm that even the previously highest tasks are not performed by subjects, no matter how illustrious they might seem (e.g. Bill Gates, Fuxxi, or Bidet these days). The current rulers don't live among the subjects anymore and treat the zoo in their possession as a platform for experimentation and crude entertainment. As they don't care, the game is doomed to fail, but the game-masters seem to be oblivious to the fact that they are not completely outsiders, but their fate is attached to the outcome.

Consequently, the current societal platform is at the penultimate stage of civilizational disintegration.

People get into power either because they are afraid to be without it or because they enjoy exercizing it; the two often goes hand-in-hand. When they are left alone, they are unlikely to ask for a legitimate reason why they are doing things: they do stuff, because they CAN.

The subsequent technological prison you are describing in vivid detail is now ready, although it doesn't have room enough for everyone, so a few preliminary steps are still left to be taken.

Critical thinking is not going to save anyone, but at least, those who do it, might give themselves a chance to play the endgame according to their own rules, despite being fully aware that they can't win.

Humanity has always self-destructed at the civilizational level. The only difference is that at this point, the global level has been reached, so there will be no starting over. Recognizing that doesn't turn anyone into a defeatist.

As Mr. Smith said in The Matrix, "Can you hear the sound of the inevitable?" As in the movie, it would take a sequence of miracles not to fall off the quickly-approaching edge or the World. After all, humans do live in a flat Earth, because they are lacking the complexity of thought, the creativity, and the imagination to reach out for anything more than their own shadows.

The fact that only the Divine can salvage humanity has been standing since the point of Creation. Human cooperation is still most welcome. :)

Indeed, not playing is the only way to win!
