The Symmetry...

The 'vicious cycle' which draws you into misguided thinking about (IE 'your') powerlessness, and failure, and inability to control your material circumstances or acquire things others have but which you haven't got - is the standard psychological control mechanism behind how human politics runs.

The process works like this - whoever is controlling you, or attempting to exert control over you, shows you a continuous flow of negative outcomes concerning things that you participated in. And they present you next with images of imminent 'external threatening forces,' which situation, naturally, given your obvious track-record of persistent 'failure,' means that you should not rely on yourself even just to survive; but naturally, must rely on them, and also do whatever they tell you to do.

This, of course, is not a pic from sometime recently,
or from anywhere 'real.' This is a pic
from the 2010 movie, 'Contagion.'

The fundamental fallacy of this narrative, is that it covertly asserts that you do not possess any tools at all, yourself.

Of course, if you don't know they are there (the tools that you have), then you will never try and pick them up to use them. And in an extension of this fallacy, the thing basically turns straight into the '21 black crows' fallacy: if someone has just seen 21 black crows in a series, they might easily conclude the next crow they will see, is also going to be black.

Even more sinister, is the implication that even if you have any tools, these are inadequate or even worse, broken.

...In the modern world, it is very difficult for many people to convince themselves that they are highly capable and possess a lot of power.

It is only after they use their power once, twice, then a third time in succession, that they are able to feel inside that this is, yes, something inherently available to them as a natural thing.

Except of course, it is not entirely just a natural thing, but something that can only 'appear' in the person once that individual has 'seen' things beyond the opaque 'wrapping' that is there all around their consciousness and their awareness of things.

LOL - just sticking this here
for exactly no reason; just to be
irritating to Muslims... How Muhammad
got to be in a place that had not been
built yet, who can say? And, I do hope
those who painted his face were killed.

And all of politics, all of what is in the media, all of what is in the common popular 'culture,' specializes in preventing anyone from seeing beyond the false wrapping that is persistently around them.

In a very short while now, there will be things seen on the world stage, and they will be characterized as one thing, but they will be another thing altogether. And, rather than do what so many others 'crying wolf' do all the time, I will immediately set out that we are talking 'death.'

The trouble, as you all know, with 'crying wolf,' is that the wolf comes. 

You should take what was just said here, in context of the idea about 'symmetry.'

It is not going to be the case that death is at all bad, here. But exactly, how, it is happening, who can say.

Human beings love 'sturm und drang.' They love to witness the big explosions, to hear the noise, to feel the power.

...Otherwise, things tend to be a bit meaningless. Even when they are stuck very openly in front of people's incredulous eyes.

Still in all though, people will never see the magician's hand in any of what is already happening, in fact.

People just get themselves from the big bangs.
Everything has to have a 'big bang'
otherwise it isn't real. According to people...

Who will the politicians blame? Who will the judges send to jail?

Well, that all depends on if there are any of those left alive.

You see, my friends, what made 'Goldfinger' a serious villain, was not that he stole all the gold in Fort Knox - it was that he didn't have to.

I guarantee you - as you yourself will well understand - that there are many people reading this, who will be saying to themselves - 'no way!'

'Way.' Oh yeah. Sorry.

For those who stayed, here they are:
