cling to the banana tree, try to control it as if you can eat all the banana's and watch others starve as the hoarded banana's you can't eat just rot.
This is the course of control, the tree of bananas is everyone's... hoarding it for oneself with control brings oneself stress, constantly on guard to
maintain what one deems rightfully theirs and guards it against all interlopers.
what is the difference between modern man and the ape we try to forget we are? hey maybe if another ape man were to offer water in exchange for a
banana or two... that would be acceptable, because of the fear to leave this control of the tree to get water for oneself... are we any different now
on the fundamental level in the way the world works?
if we cannot or refuse to recognize our ape like nature, then we will feel we have nothing to overcome and that is what keeps our feudal system going.
The idea that we can control something and exclude others from it for our own benefit. Kinda a selfish existence yes? One that has to be kept by force
yes? If we instead were bound together by empathy instead of greed, we would have compassion enough to share the bananas... in the group effort there
would be prosperity more trees more cultivation and plenty of banana's and no fear to leave it for water by anyone.
While we squabble over our own made up problems, thinking we are somehow special and above animals either through some divinity(religion) or how much
we've managed to rub different things in nature together and form an idea of words for the results(science). We are not above animals in either case,
as we are all driven and triggered by the same drives and same effects unless there is an injury or abnormality. The interesting thing, is me thinking
we are nothing as a species is something someone would call daft... and in my view those that think making up idea's and believing them to be reality
with no evidence or repeatable proof, or that we have managed to pull enough crap out of the ground and rub it together with our opposable thumbs into
present technology over countless years is somehow special making us above animals and nature; is what I call daft.
We are a species fighting not only over trees and bananas but over made up trees and made up bananas... like it really matters for existence. Well,
the only thing it really matters to is society... because current society is dependent on animal nature to exist. The status quotient would fall
apart. Those that rely on war to make money to exist... as much as most don't like war, to the soldier and all that depend on war to exist... need war
to perpetuate their current level of existence. Many systems turn into the damn tree and banana scenario.
Are we seriously not smart enough to realize that we are in perpetual cycles, that cause our own suffering by clinging to such a system... or one that
is forced on us through propaganda and lies so that we maintain it for someone else? Since we created these cycles and perpetuate them, then it is
only reasonable that we make a personal effort to stop hoarding the bananas so we drop the poo and wash our hands of perpetuating these cycles that do
nothing for us as a species except control, guard and deny others access to the tree unless they pay the price to do so... which in this day and age,
being born directly into this system... you already owe them for the bananas? or that you must now learn, live, and operate by all the nonsense
surrounded by others control of these made up trees and bananas, when all we really need is real bananas and trees, and if we work together plenty of
bananas and water and no war, or starvation.
People yell ahhh! oil is going up in price ah! it's going down in price. Guess what? this ape doesn't care either way, because this ape didn't start
the fire, this ape doesn't care about oil or the status quo it props up, this ape doesn't care about war, drugs, etc that props the status quo up or
any other fake trees and bananas we do NOT NEED to exist or live happily without.
We are trained apes from womb to grave, thinking the worlds problems are our problems, trained to think we need wifi and cell phones etc. and are told
this is special this is progress all this control and hoarding will get us to peace and prosperity one day. Stop trying to control the trees real and
artificial and hoard all the bananas then we will have peace and prosperity.
When another one of us apes is born, it's just a new ape added to the cage, and when they try to climb for that natural right of a banana... it has
more consequences than simply reaching out for it. That's a sickness is what it is, and it's one that we pass to every new ape coming into the cage,
and how is based on some imaginary lines drawn into the dirt by some apes that decided a long time ago to control by those imaginary lines in the
dirt.
Imagine this, you pick up a compass and you have magical hiking shoes and backpack that can cross anything and provides all you need for a journey,
and you start walking South... and you keep walking, keep walking, next thing you know... some other apes are going to pounce on you. You say what the
hell? I'm just walking here. They say; well you are now in another country and you do not belong here. You say, I didn't notice this ground here looks
just the same as that over there, you have two arms and two legs and are an ape person just like me... so why can't I another ape person like you walk
on this ground that looks the same as the ground as I was just on? They say; well that's just how it is... NO. it is how we've been trained.
But, wait we can't be trained because we aren't animals because we are divine, or we are too smart for that as a species... what arrogance, what
insolence, to ones fellow ape peoples of the world. We are all in the same boat here... we are told we want this garbage, that we need this garbage,
we live, fight, breed, and die over this garbage.
In my opinion it is a futility, to live a life thinking one has control over that system that is rigged, that programs people from cradle to grave,
gives them a faulty purpose for living or even existing... one scant and mostly bereft of happiness, because we are trained to think to exist we need
more than what we actually do, as a sole purpose to support the control and hoarding of things that originally belonged to all of us, and still
does... what we have to do to cease this mindless control, is take it back.
What does it take to do this? First the majority of people have to realize the above in some form shape or fashion themselves... resolve to not buy
into the nonsense and follow this programming, live their dreams and passions instead, and try to dismantle the status quo through a system it created
only to perpetuate itself and grow stronger, not dismantle itself.
So, if you want to try to control all of this and change it? Be my guest, we as a species have been fighting this since we ate our first "banana"
million s of years ago... if you want to live your life in peace, do it now who says you have to wait? You'll be dead by then... yes, finally a small
victory for progress it seems, and out pops another head from the hydra, ground gained lost again. Rinse repeat over and over. How many wars have been
fought, how many people have died? how many more wars will there be, and how many more will have to die for these made up ideals?
