Unbreakable

 Have you ever heard of the "Selective-Service"?



It's been a program that's been in place since the end of the Vietnam War.


Simply put, if any male in America wants  to go to College

 (but can't afford to pay the insane costs for tuition/housing/etc), 

there are government-grants, and loans (notice how it didn't specify "government-backed" loans) that are available to  pay the costs. 


But... to access those grants and loans, the 17-18-year-old-boy, has to sign a statement that declares he will

 "volunteer"- 

himself, for military-service, if-needed, from that day until...



I signed that statement, 

...realizing that it was a horrible-trap; designed to, break my spirit, and let me know that

 "I" 

could no longer be an individual, and that my life could and would be, directed by cold-hearted, old White-men with sinister-intentions.



I signed that statement,

because I realized the alternative would be that I was thrown, "cold-turkey" into a complex world, full of angry, duplicitous-people. 

A world that my childhood had (purposefully)- not prepared me for.


I took that choice, (without reading the pages of fine-printed legalese), because I knew that understanding those words would trap me into the White-mans frame-of-mind.



I signed that statement,

and took the money 

and had an excellent adventure where I learned a lot about life and people. 

And in my soul I knew that I was never going to be forced into military-service because, 

Fuck-Them.



And after that beautiful-experience, 

I took jobs where I would never find myself caught in a lifestyle of big-money, asshole-people, and 

a language of lies.



I did this and suffered, because I realized all that other stuff was designed to break-me, and the pain was just part of the reward...



The reward being;

 that within the battered-shell of a,  



"poor, old crazy-man, that never amounted to much" 



Was the soul of a 17 year-old, that always knew what, "a righteous-man" should do. 



Battered, 

but never broken.

The manifestation of the Capitalist-ideal

 

I had this epiphany a few days ago.

"Race" is an invention of Capitalism, with Whiteness being a personification of the Capitalist-ideal.

This all stemmed from the competitive profit-driven mindset of Western European societies. That type of society focuses on the  individual accumulating-wealth. This is opposed to societies with a focus on cooperation that provides stability for the community as a whole.


Unfortunately, in order to be a successful-competitor  through capitalism (ie: maximizing profits)  a person must adopt an amoral worldview, manifesting as sociopathy.

Successful-followers within this society, must adopt a selective-ignorance (whiteness) as their modus-operindi (ideal), in order to realize benefits from this type of society; with the maximum-rewards going to those who can most-effectively blind-themselves to the anti-social, amoral (toxic) activities bringing wealth to their masters (the few) at the expense of the lives, health, and dignity of great numbers of other (lesser) human-beings .

Through this explanation it is easy to see how  Whiteness can and does adapt itself to new victims, by positioning poor/uneducated/morally-sound white-people as the other (lesser) human-beings. 

In this way Whiteness acts much like a vampire using human-"familiars" as agents whose actions satisfy the vampire's gluttonous-appetite.
