Religion is your enemy. This is going to be a tough pill for people to swallow.
Religion has gaslit us for millennia that religion is a requirement for civilization. Religion demands, without proof, religion alone is responsible for a moral high-ground only religion provides. Every single claim by the religious for the necessity of religion is false. The proof these religious claims or false is was easy as it exact: humans existed for two-hundred thousands years before religion existed.
In my previous post, Eliminate Hate, I reason that the information age creates a new challenge for this generation, eliminating hate:
The challenge before this generation that no other had to consider is information age specific. Information is so cheap and easy to mass produce that hate programming the masses is trivial. It is our responsibility to stop it.
In this essay I’m going to layout part of the solution for eliminating information hate programming. We need to eliminate public displays of the persecution complex.
Hatred purveyed by directly stating “I hate” doesn’t sustain. There are exceptions like the Ku Klux Klan. No, the only way to never-ending perpetual hate is the way religion does it: the persecution complex.
I started calling AM Hate Radio, “AM Hate Radio”, back when Rush Limbaugh started in the 90s. The reason being is Rush first and foremost sold hate. The pathway is to sell fear that leads to hate. This is accomplished by stating, “They hate us.” versus “I hate them.” Rush Limbaugh’s entire success is based on one simple concept: Liberals hate us. Fox News repeated this mantra. Soon AM Radio was flooded with merchants of hate. These merchants beat a steady drum of “Liberals hate us.” All conservative media today is based on first stating “Liberals hate us” followed by, “of course, we hate Liberals.”
Religion has been selling itself via fear leading to hate as long as religion has existed. Hate defines religion. No hate, no religion. No persecution complex, no religion.
Know your enemy. We must stop the merchants of hate. The method for doing this is to penalize public hate-mongering, especially persecution complex hatred. Merchants of hate will proclaim they are not selling hate by stating others hate them. Don’t be fooled. That is exactly what they are doing.
How should we penalize them? No prison. The Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) is in financially on par with the Military Industrial Complex (MIC) with its motivations, strategies and tactics. The PIC and MIC promote incarceration and war to make money, not because the incarceration or war is needed.
When we incarcerate people then we the tax payers pay the PIC for it. Therefore the way to penalize merchants of hate is to financially ruin them. Fine them. Freeze their accounts. It’s that simple. Write legislation that financially penalizes the merchants of hate.
We can’t abolish religion. Religion is stupidity, or willful ignorance like with the anti-vax movement. No, but we can and must abolish using hatred to program people. We do this by legislation that outlaws saying “I hate them” or “They hate us” in all the flavors. For example, it is common for AM Radio to use “patriot” as a synonym for “liberal”. They call each other “true patriots” and their enemies “traitors”. Merchants of hate.
We should shutdown completely AM Hate radio, Fox News, and conservative social media sites. Either we have the courage to do this or we will fail. Let them start anew without the hate. The minute they start the hate selling then fine them.
Our MAGA problem is an information age problem distinct to the information age. Yes, propaganda, persecution complexes, etc. have been around as long as religion. However, the information age gives the hatred programming new levels of anti-social behavior. We need to destroy MAGA and use those words. All their Merchants of hate must be abolished, Future merchants of hate must be managed by financial penalties.
Religion is your enemy. Removing persecution complex hatred from the public square is going to be a tough pill for people to swallow. Religion will fight with everything they have to maintain public persecution complex hatred. How can they not? This is how they make money. We’ve all been gaslit that religion is benign, required, and our permanent culture. Religion is not. Humanity existed two-hundred thousand years before religion existed.
Have the courage to do the right thing. Stand up to the merchants of hate. Stand up to religion. Know your enemy.
