Most men don't understand how vulnerable they are because we are always made to take risk, lead and trust the system. The system is intentionally designed to harass people. Powers that be have always treated people outside the system as sheep. First it was the Kings, but at least then common people knew to stay away from strongmen. The System is pretty much the same since then. Men are expected to solve their problems on their own and not whine. Aaron fought the system for a lot of us, but neither he nor a lot of us understand how difficult it is, that the fight is ages old and the system has developed a lot of resistance. The rabbit hole goes deeper than most people understand. We must keep this fight alive if Aaron's life has any value.
- alan_cx 12y agoIm with you in spirit, just a thought or two.... "Powers that be have always treated people outside the system as sheep." Isnt it that people inside the system are sheep? People outside the system are considered renegade, some how dangerous to the system, and there for the enemy? People inside the system are implicitly going along with the system, and while they do, no problem. And if you try to fight from with in the system, the system is designed to quickly put the threat you pose down. How that applies to Aaron, I dont know. Was he inside or outside? And frankly, is there a difference these days? Cant help thinking that one of the big illusions these days is the notion that one is off grid, outside the system, and not part of it. The system seems to know no boundary and we are part of it no matter what we want or choose.
- cubancigar11 12y agoBy system I mean the lawmakers and the law enforcers. For them law abiders are sheep - or not smart enough (criminals). Politics as an act is how system works and has always worked. No matter how much we cry that politics has gotten worse or that criminals have gotten power, if you look historically smart criminals always had power. And power is the way they work. So, Aaron was indeed NOT part of the system. Neither are you nor me. We, the people, have gotten somewhat into the system by getting involved into politics via democracy. But in reality there is more propaganda about its infallibility than reality. That is where Aaron got caught. He was hacker, he saw the system, and started using it logically (which is like calling APIs, so to say). The problem is that the system doesn't work for you or me or Aaron. The APIs are self-contradictory and designed to entrap you. It works for itself. People are only to be pacified to avoid mass movements. It is true for USA and it is true for China, only difference is how much people get to exert pressure. Quite fucked up! :) Now, there is no demarcation as such, and law abiders also become law enforcers etc. But if you look at the extremes you can see it very clearly. There is a murder, I forget his name, who is serving his sentence because he killed an abusive jailer, then there is Obama who has ordered more drone strikes than anyone in human history because USA has been threatened. I hope I was clear. I will be AFK for sometime.
