Ted Kaczynski allegedly stated
in his manifesto:
"[O]ur society tends to regard as 'sickness' any mode of
thought or behavior that is inconvenient for the system, and this is plausible
because when an individual doesn't fit into the system it causes pain to the
individual as well as problems for the system. Thus the manipulation of an
individual to adjust him to the system is seen as a 'cure' for a 'sickness' and
therefore as good."
And
isn't this EXACTLY what is going on today? The correction of 'abherent'
thoughts through the diagnosis and treatment of something so general and hard
to define but nonetheless given a blanket name like 'schizophrenia' to make it
seem like it's something substantively defineable, and therefore diagnoseable.
How
many SSRI drugs are out there today that can cause abherent thoughts and
actions in the patient? Look at the long lists of side effects that these drugs
have, which just get longer with each new drug that comes out. Why do you think
they advertise them on TV, and then list these many dangerous side effects? The
most logical reason is because no doctor wants to be sued for prescribing them,
and neither do the pharmaceutical companies who make them, so it must fall on
the patient to take responsibility for how the drugs might affect them. This is
undoubtedly why many of them are also now over-the-counter drugs, rather than
prescription only. But they're nonetheless very DANGEROUS! They create
psychotic monsters! The world is more full of people taking these questionable
drugs than ever before, and that means that the likelihood of someone going off
the deep end is only increasing because of them. THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT! This
is why there are so many instances these days of lone-nut shooters going into
schools and churches and malls and shooting everyone up! Just do a search
online for mass shootings and SSRIs, and you'll find not just a few cases where
these drugs were involved, but many 100s, and increasing steadily with each
passing year!
Drugs
are a form of technology, so Kaczynski was as right in this instance about how
technology is overtaking society as he was about any other technology he might
have been referring to. And aren't we being encouraged - very often even forced
- to turn to drugs as 'cures' for every perceived ailment, more and more? Are
they not attempting to classify every perceived 'sickness' of the mind and
correlate them with brain activity so that they can just plug you up to a
machine that will spit out a diagnosis, and that diagnosis must stand as fact
because their machines don't make mistakes? Do you think they would ever be
willing to explain how such a machine works? Do you think they will even know
after a while? Who comes to be in charge of THAT knowledge? A pimply-faced
computer programmer? Compartmentalization of knowledge and secrecy based on
proprietary information will only add to the problems we'll face more and more
in the future. And that's the way we're giong. But they don't really care. They
just want to be able to label people in order to justify what they do to them
after that.
The
system that the manifesto talks about is likened to a machine. It has no brain,
no heart, no senses. It does not acknowledge the human condition beyond what
it's programmed to understand. It works towards one end, and that is to enslave
humankind to itself. That is how it's programmed. The laws we live by are part
of the programming, and we must adhere to those laws in order that the machine
will work effectively in its task to keep us enslaved. The fact that we keep
having more rights and freedoms taken away from us is based on how the machine
must operate, not on how humans operate. We are being forced to become
something other than what God made us. That is a requirement of the system, if
the system is going to move forward with its intended purpose. The system comes
first, and individuals come last. That's how it's programmed.
The
fact is, Kaczynski was labelled as mentally ill based on the manifesto, which
his State-appointed DEFENSE team (who were screwing him over) claimed was a
sign that he was paranoid, as though very well-reasoned fear or aprehension are
somehow equated with mental illness. If that's the case, then this write-up and
most of my other blog articles qualify me as mentally ill, as are many other
people who post their thoughts online. And that's exactly how they want it to
be. We become easy targets ourselves if we accept this blatant labelling of
people with very generalized mental illnesses like schizophrenia.
The
evidence of sickness they used with Ted is the same sort of evidence they will
use on others. He had vocalized his well-reasoned thoughts in a paper that many
first said was pure genius for its deep insight, but then they were overrun
with louder and more 'authoritative' claims that he was paranoid, and therefore
schizophrenic, and therefore a madman. Case closed.
So I
must be a madman too. And so are you if you happen to agree with any of this.
At least we'll have each other for company in that rubber room.
