The Great Wikiflood, The Intensifying Apocalypse and Your Two Choices
A drama of global & epic proportions is
confront the forces of non-exploitation.
I have been reporting since November of 2008, that the emergent culture phenomena is on a collision course with the failing Current World System.
The emergent culture is defined by the growth of democratizing trends or those of us committed to pro-ecosocio models based on non-exploitation, transparency, non-violence, ecological sensitivity and egalitarian values.
The Current World System or the prevailing culture is characterized by authoritarian structures (centralized government) built upon the foundation of “might makes right” (police state, biggest stick), deception, exploitation, ecological indifference, gender imbalance and violence (militarism).
As you can see the values of the emergent culture are diametrically opposed to those of the Current World System. The Current World System is in rapid decline and losing more and more of its members as the truth gets out.
On the other hand the emergent culture is growing rapidly as people seek egalitarian and ecosocio sensitive cultural models to replace the disastrous system we now have. What kind of a scenario does the foregoing point to?
The model of exploitation perpetuated by the Current World System is possible only through deception and subterfuge. But as people learn about the actual workings of the Current World System they will cease to support it and they will want to join with those offering the opposite. Who wants to be exploited?
The Current World System will have to prevent the conversion of its members in order to sustain itself and that means stifling the free flow of information.
Censorship will not go over well with the emergent culture because they see the free flow of uncensored information as the means by which to begin solving and mitigating our ecosocio problems local and global. As you can see we have an arm wrestling match of epic proportions on our hands.
The End of the Current
World System is at Our Doorstep
The “End of the World” motif or apocalypse
refers to the collapse of the Current World System.
The “End of the World” motif
has been mythically expressed, is historically assured,
scientifically calculated and we now have experiential validation.
Mythically Expressed: The Apocalypse
Religious, spiritual, philosophical or mythosophical renderings of worldly existence understand the cyclical nature of our reality, its recurrent themes and human patterns of action and reaction.
The last chapter of a culture’s mythos pertains to end times or more precisely to periods of intense decline and subsequent regeneration.
The Greek word apocalypse means “uncovering or revealing what has been hidden.” In other words, the revelation of new truths and/or falsehoods.
Hence the biblical Book of Revelation and its treatment of its end of the world scenario. The telling phrase throughout the Book of Revelation is the “whole world would be deceived“.
The Book of Revelation was not referring to our time period, but to that of the authors. Christians insist its a prophetic text, but that is because Christians have become mythically illiterate.
The author of the Book of Revelation knew well enough that the culture he was witness to, the unholy Roman Empire, was built upon deception and injustice and therefore its Achilles heel would be the truth of justice.
He knew that sooner or later the truth would catch up with the deceitful and when it did it would spell doomsday for the dominant social order. And as we know the Roman Empire did indeed succumb under the weight of its own excesses. Imperial excesses mean injustice and justice follows injustice.
What was true back then about the dynamics of justice are still true today and that is why the metaphor of apocalypse applies to our present situation. For more on the true meaning of prophecy see Prophecy Demystified.
The dynamic implied by apocalypse is that our mental construct or understanding of the world is held in place by nothing more than ideas that have formed in our minds.
Please see The Delusions, the Deluders and “the Truth” How Culture Programs your Mind for the details of how our ideas are formed for us until we learn how to deprogram and reprogram ourselves according to the values we want to express and support.
We all know the mental-emotional devastation that is wrought when we discover that we have been deceived or mistaken about the actuality of something. The old mental-emotional state breaks down and is then transformed into a new mental-emotional condition.
Wikileaks or the disclosure of information that exposes the actuality of things is the surest manifestation of the ongoing apocalypse.
Millions know that governments and corporations can’t be trusted in the least, but thousands of millions don’t know the full extent or magnitude of the religious and secular deception that has been going on for thousands of years.
Imperialist civilizations are made possible by exploiting the ignorance of a systematically cultivated subject class.
Wikileaks is a rapidly developing cultural theme (meme) referring to disclosure, revealment and purification.
Wikileaks is a growing trend, a movement and a process that will ultimately result in the rectification and reformulation of governments, corporations and all institutions is general.
The Establishment will try to halt the revealment process and has perhaps already co-opted the Wikileaks organization to some degree.
Therefore we must focus on the spirit of Wikileaks… on what it stands for so as to keep the process of disclosure going forward wherever we can.
Apocalypse has come to mean the end of the world because revealing the truth about the Current World System will topple all of its supporting pillars.
Once the people realize the true nature of the beast they will withdraw their support and rebel against their respective governments. The System will collapse in proportion to the withdrawal. This is why Wikileaks or expose´ is such a powerful threat to the Current World System.
The formal study of end time motifs is called eschatology for those with more interest.
Historically Assured
The history of civilization is the story of the rise and fall of empires. The pattern is the same for all regardless of region or ethnicity.
Civilization up to the present may be defined as the quest for empire by the ruling classes.
The subject class or those not part of the ruling class are mere pawns in the game of empire building.
At this point all civilizations of the modern era have merged into what I have been calling the Current World System. They all share the same basic operating principles described above and maintain an uneasy alliance amongst themselves known as the United Nations.
There are no novel mechanisms in place to prevent the collapse of the Current World System. To the contrary in fact as there now exists a mechanism to insure the permanent death of the principles that have raised their ugly heads as empires and civilizations as we have known them thus far.
The subject class now has its own communication system and information base. This is a new development in the history of class struggle. A given culture is able to operate the way it does because its members subscribe to and support the cultural worldview which is nothing more than set of ideas.
If the ideas that support a given cultures worldview give way then the cultural system crumbles in proportion. The decline of a civilization does not happen overnight. The undoing of the Current World System began in the 1960′s when the counter cultural revolution was born.
The seeds of the plants sown at that time are now flowering. Up until the 1960′s humanity had only experienced political revolutions which ended up controlling the same set of cultural ideas and values. The 1960′s introduced in a permanent way the ecosocio values of the emergent culture.
