The Obscure

Hey everybody. I missed school today, on account of my headache, and toothache, and general bodily unwell-ness.
I went through some of my old blog archives earlier, out of boredom. It's surprising how much of myself I had forgotten about. There are things that I didn't remember at all, that I had no idea I had forgotten.
Pretty crazy stuff.

Right now, I have decided that I am going to post about how I feel; not on a personal level, to be honest I don't feel much of anything on a personal level--I'm just going to post how I feel about Things.

There has been a System set up to drive Man into submission. It is a System that stretches to every aspect of our lives, and although some people can see some of it from time to time, they very rarely try to wrap their minds around the whole thing.

We are now driven by the Government to become their version of a citizen. I, for one, have spent twelve years of my life in their schools learning their facts and being forced to swallow their reality without any ability to make the decision for myself until I was 16. Not only that, but the consequences for making the decision to leave school have become so fantastically large that it is no longer really an option at all, if you have your facilities about you.
The Government drives us, yes, and then people take it into their heads that they want to be Revolutionaries and go against the accepted Government ideal. That is the other side of their pincer.
Then you take on the Ideals of the Media, they pander to your supposed revolutionary quirks and tell you that Yes, the Government is trying too hard to run your life, so you should try to vote for people who will go into the Government FOR you and start putting all kinds of laws up that will somehow defend your freedom. Free yourself by shackling yourself down with our laws, not "Their's".
But they are all for the same purpose. To mass-produce the ideal human. We are the oil that makes this enormous Culture Machine run.
Without two arguing sides to everything, without two polar opposites that you are programmed to adhere to, you would be an individual.
They can't have that. They have to grow you, to feel like you are a person with human rights and human dignity when in truth you are just another Ear of People on this America-Stalk.

And THAT my friends, is why I hate school, and politics, and television (though I watch it incessantly); because it Herds us like cattle. No matter what side you come from you are just being pushed like another Bovine-Human to live out your years within the confines of this aesthetic prison, and leave behind a few more babies for the Herd when you die.
It's the System, it's been running for centuries, and I doubt that any of the Runners can even acknowledge it for themselves. They just serve out their purpose as their predecessors did, and as we all do.
But I wish to quit, somehow.

Vive la Revolución.
