Its too much of greed disease that the common class of people are suffering with . That is justified because of decades of ordinary life and too much of disparity between their affordability with that of the richer classes. Ultimately its all because of a lifestyle. People want to be living a king size life, irrespective of their desires deep down. This ideology is passed to their kids and we are becoming a generation of wealth seekers. Fear, my friend, is one of the greatest factors on which capitalism thrives. Look at where all the money for venture capitalists comes from that is finally invested in entrepreneurs. It bloody comes from pension funds , insurance companies. They work on fear of tomorrow and give it a shade of securing the future. Securing a future that doesn't exist. It is always a doubt. They instilled a doubt and planted fear and played with already existing fear. And there you go, Trillions of dollars of money saved for the fear of tomorrow which goes in the hands of venture capitalists and businessmen who make this world a better place by selling peace keepings instruments such as arms and ammunition.Previously it was easier to control a million people than slaying them, now its easier slaying than controlling. This ease is because of the advent of technology fuelled by growth of a capitalistic mindset. We are still playing the old game of conquering but using a different mask. The times seem to have changed but the peoples greed has not. Its truly fantastic this game. They call it this is how we make the best of resources, churning the money, the cycles of money , the liquidity. Americans believe in the value of liquidity and flow of cash, they don't like static money as it cannot make value to stakeholder.
Hence this game of churning money plants greed to win more , make more out of the little you start with. In the end the value creation of the money you started with is much more than what it is worth. This causes an imbalance. This makes others who lost the game sad,frustrated and sometimes rages an anger. This anger drives them into more greed. This may either lead to a success or failure. which is 50-50. In any case some fail. The failed ones don't stop there they cause negativity in their circles. These circles spread more hate towards others who got lucky. Now how do you expect such a society to coexist in peace which is driven by pure greed. We defined the society on such foundations of opportunistic and greedy principles of success.
The acts of these extremists has little to do with religion. Religion is just a mask. The real problem is something else. It is breeding a generation of waithood which is denied any opportunity to make a living. It is also largely western provocation of either insulting/demeaning/satire/sarcasm of a faith system. This aggravates the situation further. If you have watched the movie Blood Diamond, you would realize what happens to people when there is a valuable resource. And how it is played dirty by the western world. These nations were colonies of the erstwhile colonialists and they disrupted that land so bad that they are unable to recover. The spread of Christianity was purely because of colonialists until then it was mainly the influence of Islam from Egypt. Once you create a disparity among people its easier to control them for a third person. The western world is so Hippocratic in many ways. Now US, UK, Germany , France look at their ams exports and will they stop this ? Well they talk this capitalist bullshit stories. Its business . But again these are the people who talk of peace.
Hello Kashyap,
ReplyDeleteI was recently looking for articles on religion and humanity. I stumbled upon your blog while doing so. It is a great blog. Your take on religion is very very good.A different perspective altogether. Sometimes I feel it is random but the idea is transferred nonetheless. I hope you write more often. I read all the articles on this blog already. Very very interesting.
Cheers from your newest follower.
