5. Useful models for explaining things
There are three models or scenarios I like to describe our human situation:
a. That one from MMutR who used the canal or riverboat idea heading downstream … far from travelling down the middle or within a lane slightly to one side, the craft crashes first all the way over to the left, realises it’s in a mess, so swings across to the right bank, crashing into everything there. Does it then learn and resume down the middle? Does it hell … it crashes over to the left again … red … blue .. red … blue … and so it goes on.
b. The model used here a few times to describe the Unherdables group of sites … lighthouse, carpark, tavern, chapel, stables, outhouses etc. etc.
c. One I’ve used a few times now … originally from the Chris Rea idea of Road to Hell, it incorporates the notion of the road to hell broad and wide, paved with good intentions.
To paint the picure in words, imagine you’re headed up a gentle slope, sometime undulating, asphalt paved, safe edges, plenty of roadhouses along the way. We’re on the left side of the hill, the town being over the ridge and down the other side to the left, we dan see the glow of town lights in the sky.
This broad road up is curving left and after the ridge, will plunge downwards, sloping left down to the town below. People are dotted along the road at different points for miles, those nearer the top with a better overview, therefore understand differently to to those still further down the hill.
Near the top of the ridge is a fork but not an alternative road, rather a ramshackle path suddenly headed up to the right, through brambles, wild animals, it’s slippery, treacherous but there seems to be some light up that way all the same.
Only a few hardy souls are tackling it, most of humanity thinks that’s a crazy idea when the town’s so near now after the easy climb … they sweep over the ridge, and plunge down left towards the town and all its vice dens. The strange people picking their way up that steep hill to the right though have started helping one another over the tough bits.
What happens once you realise
… that the psychos above have fallen completely now … way past any sort of ethics, morality, any sort of compunction … in fact they’re getting a kick from all this … this power over little people, the power to make their lives a misery.
This is now way beyond mafia run towns, even PPPs, this now has a global conflagration feel to it … it possesses pathetic people like the Starmer type, Rachel from Accounts, that Tulip … the morally compromised but ambitious non-comps sitting in judgment over us all. How?
Designed to be like that, wasn’t it? Slowly, over time, clandestinely. People flatly refuse to call it diabolically driven … they recoil from such “out there” observations … those with brains though face the next hurdle … how to actually stop these bstds before they utterly destroy the earth, all life, all grass and trees … hellbent on pursuing some ideological utopia which of course is dystopia.
Flatly refusing to see a simple logic … if you want to stop a power so massive, so patient, so intertwined, so funded, in every country in the world … then shirley the only way is an equal or stronger force for good acting to snuff the dark side out or at least to somewhat protect the ordinary person.
Everyone knows where this is going … and no one wants to go there.
Back to the burning town below (AnonCon in blogrolls):
LA Mayor used fire department money to fund queer occult interests, ‘ebony theatre,’ trans cafe, and more. She had taken $17 million from firefighting to fund those other things.
