The meta-Genocide
“True peace is not merely the absence of war, it is the presence of justice.”
“Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are.”
“To be wealthy and honored in an unjust society is a disgrace.” ― Confucius
“Secrets are generally terrible. Beauty is not hidden – only ugliness and deformity.”
“If you spend time with crazy and dangerous people, remember – their personalities are socially transmitted diseases; like water poured into a container, most of us eventually turn into – or remain – whoever we surround ourselves with. We can choose our tribe, but we cannot change that our tribe is our destiny.”
“The most dangerous people in the world are not the tiny minority instigating evil acts, but those who do the acts for them. For example, when the British invaded India, many Indians accepted to work for the British to kill off Indians who resisted their occupation. So in other words, many Indians were hired to kill other Indians on behalf of the enemy for a paycheck. Today, we have mercenaries in Africa, corporate armies from the western world, and unemployed men throughout the Middle East killing their own people - and people of other nations - for a paycheck. To act without a conscience, but for a paycheck, makes anyone a dangerous animal. The devil would be powerless if he couldn't entice people to do his work. So as long as money continues to seduce the hungry, the hopeless, the broken, the greedy, and the needy, there will always be war between brothers.”
“The best thing for being sad," replied Merlin, beginning to puff and blow, "is to learn something. That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.”
“All men make mistakes, but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong, and repairs the evil. The only crime is pride.”
“A Native American elder once described his own inner struggles in this manner: Inside of me there are two dogs. One of the dogs is mean and evil. The other dog is good. The mean dog fights the good dog all the time. When asked which dog wins, he reflected for a moment and replied, The one I feed the most.”
“Ignorance, the root and stem of every evil.”
“Our defeat was always implicit in the victory of others; our wealth has always generated our poverty by nourishing the prosperity of others - the empires and their native overseers. In the colonial and neocolonial alchemy, gold changes into scrap metal and food into poison.”
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
“All cruelty springs from weakness.”
“Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.”
“Historically, the most terrible things - war, genocide, and slavery - have resulted not from disobedience, but from obedience.”
“My people are few. They resemble the scattering trees of a storm-swept plain...There was a time when our people covered the land as the waves of a wind-ruffled sea cover its shell-paved floor, but that time long since passed away with the greatness of tribes that are now but a mournful memory.”
“The first time it was reported that our friends were being butchered there was a cry of horror. Then a hundred were butchered. But when a thousand were butchered and there was no end to the butchery, a blanket of silence spread.
Meta-Genocide, according to my opinion is the massive extinction of the sense, of human existence. During north America native Indians' genocide, the innocent Indians, among other atrocities, were given to the colonialists' dogs as a food. Probably more than one hundred million people. During the U.S.S.R.'s genocide, the innocent Russians were brought to the gulags and after unthinkable torturing, they were murdered. All fifty million people. During the Bulgaria's genocide, just after the WW2, the, morally and/or mentally, gifted Bulgarians were murdered, one by one. During the Rwanda's genocide, innumerable innocent people were cut to peaces.
During our era, millions of innocent civilians, all over the world, “die”, from pseudo illnesses (this is concluded from sufficient indications), like “cancer”, “cardiovascular diseases”, “aids”, “Alzheimer”, “multiple scleroses”, etc.; from instrumental “wars”; from instrumental “judges” and “jails”; from instrumental “doctors” and “hospitals”; and, almost, no one, even, experiences an emotional reaction. Meta-genocide massively extincts the “spirit” of the people, before he extincts their organic life, also. Around and among, the victims of meta-genocide, various instrumental “boogie-men” exist; and behind the scenes, the stubborn and perpetual ignorance of the fact that “the borders of their language are the borders of their world” (Wittgenstein). The language may be the “key” for peacefully ending this current and most atrocious of all, meta-genocide.
