New design
So, after a long abandonment here are some new(s) – a new design, whatta you know huh? Still work in progress, though. Through all that time of absence (cracking on my web design and development skills) I gathered a lot of new thoughts and if the time lets me I’ll try to lay ‘em out right here. Not that this blog was is or ever gonna be very active, I always thought that ideas of facebook-like websites are ridiculous. It’s like creating internet inside internet, how stupid is that, huh?

The lost power of the word
I’d like to think that issues I write about in my articles are obvious as well as their reasons and consequences, however, not much people contemplate that which is obvious. For example lots of people like football (soccer for americans), but if you asked them why do they like it I bet you wouldn’t get a clear answer, probably because they don’t have one. It’s the herd instinct – everyone likes it, so I like it – it’s obvious, isn’t it? I could expand a bit more on this subject, and I will eventually, but this article is not about that. This article is about the lost power of the word and degeneration of the speech. Like I said before, the issue is obvious, but I’m always driven by the question WHY. Why do people often use (or misuse most of the times, from my perspective) words, phrases like “excuse me”, sorry, please, “thank you” and so on. For example I’ve probably been in hundreds of times in situation when someone opens the door split second before you do that and says sorry. I don’t quite understand what’s there to be sorry about? So he went in or out first, what’s the big deal? I mean if a person would bump someone with that door then probably it would be appropriate to say sorry, otherwise what’s the point? Another example – you stand by the cash desk in the food shop and you hear at least 3 “thank you’s” from the cashier who’s at the same moment smiling through her teeth when in fact she probably thinks “go fuck yourself”. What I want to point out, that words today are nothing but subservience, lies, propaganda used by everyone who can. What happened to “word is mightier than sword”? That might if it still exists is being abused by world powers, governments to make more obedient slaves of us by creating new laws, feeding us more refined propaganda and so on. Everyone watches movies, and there are lots of movies about more or less ancient times, and I think that everyone heard phrases from those movies like “I give you my word” which almost always sounds dignified to enhance the meaning. If you were to hear similar phrase in the movie about present times it would be a fiction movie. Do you know why? Because today nobody’s word is to be trusted, in fact the very idea sounds ridiculous. In the world where dog eats dog, where biggest law breakers are the very law creators and so on. There were times, if we can trust history, when you could loose your life because of the wrong word, there were times when people got burned alive because of speaking the truth (Copernicus and others). At those times phrase “I give you my word” had a real meaning, but not anymore. The power of the word is lost, corrupted, misused and twisted now.

Zeitgeist, Part 2: interpretations
This subject is pretty much endless in my opinion, that being said more and more thoughts come while the time passes by. I would like to expand a bit more on globalization this time. This may sound more or less paranoid to some people, some might think it’s another conspiracy theory, however, using only logic sense one should determine how real or how unreal this is. I remember I once watched this episode of South Park where “crab people” developed a TV-show “queer eye for the straight guy” which turned every man into metrosexual and essentially into weaklings and pussies, so they (the “crab people”) could easily overtake the world. This didn’t make much sense to me then, but when I remember it now it may have a big sense afterall. When you think of it isn’t it exactly what governments and manipulative powers of the world trying to do now using globalization? Ideas like gay tolerance, sexual equality (essentially only women orientated), all sorts of discriminations and many others like that are being literally forced on the people globally, and if you dig deeper most of these things affect men negatively – effectively suppressing their nature, making them weaker, changing their natural understanding and the way of thinking. You might ask why? Because IF and WHEN the time comes when we have to stand our ground for the last time against the corrupt powers of the world before they completely clench us into their fist… who will do that? Women? Gays? Pacifists? The answer is men, only men. Only the question is will there be any real men left at the time? You should ask yourself that question today.

The proprieties and censorship
This is probably highly philosophical subject, however it is also one of the most important in our daily lives. Have you ever though to yourself, why one or the other word or behavior is considered to be improper, vulgar? For example why the word “shit” is considered to be vulgar and the word “excrement” is naturally acceptable? Isn’t that because someone or some group of people once decided that it is improper and began to spread shall we say propaganda? What kind of right do they have to such a decision that will affect billions of people in future? Then again, what was the reason? Have you ever thought about that? Isn’t that the same bullshit like religions were created to control, manipulate, suppress and so on? Isn’t that some smaller but yet a way of control? The biggest question of all is why all these so called bad words are necessary at all? If we get to the bottom of this then we can see, that if we only use common sense, the words and behavior can only be judged by emotional response of the people concerned. For example if I would call you a shithead you would be offended and in some cases you could probably sue me and I would probably be in some real trouble over that. And all of that because of what? Emotional response? I never thought the law should be based on emotions and yet it is. So how can I trust such a law? How can I trust such lawmakers and the whole government? I guess I can’t. However if I’m to “stray from the way” people would judge me, but the funniest thing if one would ask them “Why?”, they wouldn’t know the answer. Because they probably never though about that. Because they do what they are told to do, they speak the way they were taught to speak and they don’t have their own opinion about that. It’s one of the worst things today – pretty much nobody questions anything, and that’s only better to them – people who rule. If couple thousand years ago in Greece people would questioned something that was probably called philosophy or debates. Now it would probably be called anarchy.
