In last week’s article, I covered the number one red flag that someone is nothing but trouble, which is that they are rude and disrespectful.
In this week’s article, I will be covering the very second red flag that they will end up causing trouble in the long run, but before you scroll down, you might wanna take a wild guess as to what that could be.
Ok, ready?
The answer is ……
Nasty!
They are NASTY!
Whether they are littering the pavement with cigarette butts, or they are scratching behind their ears before handling other people’s food, rudeness and nastiness almost always goes hand in hand. But here’s the thing.
The root cause of nastiness is laziness. Nasty people are stupid and lazy, and that laziness often spills over into rudeness, especially defensive rudeness when you ask them to wear gloves or wash their hands.
Isn’t it funny how everybody suddenly needs a hearing aid as soon as you ask them to wash their dirty hands? Their sudden onset of a hearing impairment is an attempt to gaslight you to cover for their own pride and stubbornness.
Lazy people are inherently stubborn, that is why they are lazy. But if someone is trying to steal your perception of reality by gaslighting you, then that person is being rude by default.
The main reason why they are also prideful is because they think that by complaining, you are suggesting that it is some kind of moral failure on their part. And if that is what they think, then they are right, but not in the way they may think.
It’s only a failure if you complain and they don’t apologize and correct their actions. Or if they actively try to deny it, even to the point of gaslighting you, and projecting onto you for it.
Another reason for their defensiveness is that they think you’re complaining just to scorn them. These are the, “I’m clean! I took a bath!” crowd. And I’m over here like, “yes, you’re clean enough for you, but not clean enough for me.” The moment you picked your nose without washing your hands, you stopped being clean enough for me.
We used to take better pride in cleanliness and good customer service. But then there was a paradigm shift within the social order of society that made the very opposite more widely acceptable. So then what happened?
What happened is that rudeness has become so “fashionable” within society, that all of its kin, including nastiness, has followed suit. And it appears that it didn’t take too long for them to catch up. Now it seems to me that they are inseparable, and that one is not complete without the other.
Solution? Nasty people should never work in restaurants. They should become trash collectors and drain cleaners where they can have the pleasure of revelling in theirs and everybody else’s waste without scrutiny. And if that sounds harsh to you, then let’s raise our standards and enforce them without compromise.
There are some people out there, few as they are, who take a great deal of pride in serving others and doing so wholeheartedly, and thank goodness for those people. They should be the ones who work in restaurants, and be responsible for children and caring for the elderly.
One of the most sadistic things you can experience is getting into an argument with a narcissist and everybody takes their side. This tends to happen more often than not, and it is particularly frustrating because it makes you feel like you cannot win when dealing with those kinds of people.
Furthermore, it makes the narcissist seem superior to you, and far more popular than you. And with that popularity, they receive the favor of the majority. But why do you think that is? In this article, I will be covering the flying monkey and why they support the narcissist so blindly.
First of all, what is a flying monkey? The term “flying monkey” is a reference to the wicked witch of the west from “The Wizard of Oz” who sent out magical monkeys with wings to do her bidding.
The term is now used within communities that support survivors of narcissistic abuse to describe the henchmen of the narcissist who are all too willing to do the narcissist’s bidding.
Primarily as it relates to stalking, hoovering, enabling, gaslighting and harassment of the former target who has escaped the narcissist’s control. But what kind of person would go out of their way to harass an innocent person who doesn’t want to be bothered? Don’t they have kids, bills and a job to go to?
The answer is that they are weak.
These are weak-willed, mediocre people who are not that smart, not fully right upstairs, satisfied with their lot in life, and are thus easier to control. Those reasons alone are exactly why they are normies.
The first red flag that you are dealing with a normie is that they are loud, fake and satisfied with mediocrity. They also want everybody to be the same. Let’s break it down on an existential level.
First of all, there are many people who were not born because they were loved, planned for, or cared for. They were born out of the simple fact that two jackasses decided to fuck without a condom.
Their parents were stupid, dishonest, and racist. And now they are just as stupid, dishonest, and racist as their parents. Soon they will have children of their own who will more or less turn out the same way, and the vicious cycle continues.
How could you expect those kinds of people to love anyone if their parents never loved them? And how could their parents love them if they never even loved each other, let alone themselves?
Yet from a very early age, the normie knew that it was always hungry, horny and needed money. It also knew that it wasn’t smart enough to sustain life on its own. So what does it do?
It joins other normies at work, or in friend groups, and they all fall in line with a certain pecking order that only they can understand. They appoint a “leader” whose leadership qualities are only apparent from their perspectives, be it a boss, or a popular friend in the group. And that “leader” serves its role while they serve their leader.
They idealize that leader and serve him or her blindly. If that leader wants them to murder an innocent, they will kill that person without question. This is where the danger lies because this is how cults are usually formed.
With that said, not all normies are evil. Most normies are just unawakened, and trying to go about their regular lives. But there is a lot of evil mixed in among the normies and the lines easily become blurred because it’s hard to tell who’s who.
This is where evil comes into play. True evil is silent. It watches. It waits. It befriends. Then it strikes when you least expect it, and in ways you would never consider. It strikes by appearing as normal as any normie, and then taking advantage of the confusion.
Then before you know it, the poor, unsuspecting normies are now part of a friendship gang, or a corporate cult, and the expectation of loyalty makes it hard for them to back out. So they become enablers and go along with evil agendas just for the sake of getting along with everybody.
This is particularly dangerous because these normies are the same kind of people who drank the Kool-aid in the jungles of Jonestown, Guyana in 1978, and history is doomed to repeat itself. Consider yourselves warned!
All normie cults have two scapegoats. One is internal, the other is external. The internal scapegoat is that one friend in the group who everybody low key roasts. And the external one?
He is just the quiet guy who goes to work, minds his business, does his job and goes home without incident, and generally wants nothing to do with them. And everybody HATES him. Why do they hate him?
Because they feel like he is disrespecting their pecking order by not falling in line and worshipping them. Because he has “The Light” and doesn’t want to be exploited for it.
Because they cannot wrap their heads around the notion that he truly doesn’t need anybody, and they want to fix the situation to their preference versus respecting the fact that everybody has a different perspective.
Another reminder of the dangers of group think is that the normie standard is low. They set the bar really low, which makes them low-hanging fruit because of how stupid and easily controllable they all are.
The admission cost to join their group is that you are required to dim your light so that everybody can be the same. And also to eliminate the risk of triggering people’s envy and insecurities. This is exactly why they are fake.
They are so fake, and so stupid, that they fail to realize that it is actually their perspectives that’s grossly skewed.
They’re not for you. You’re not for them. So when you go your own way, and show that you don’t need them, they want to attack you for it.
And because they are all so weak-willed, not only will they stand by as others abuse you, they will literally join in. The “good” one is only quiet, and a spineless follower.
They are also probably thinking, “if I let them roast me, what makes you so special?” Once again, they set the bar really low for themselves, and because they swear their perspectives are correct, they set it low for you, too.
Then the normies celebrate their mediocrity and try to cover up their inherent shame by seeking attention on social media, and going out to nightclubs.
Be ye not deceived. It is all a facade to make themselves seem way cooler than they actually are, and to make you want them because they thrive on your attention.
If you fall for it, then this is how they will trap you. Mind you, these are only normie cults, and not all normies. Smart, creative people DO NOT join cults that target innocent people for no reason.
So what can a light bearer do in this world filled with normies? First of all, what is a light bearer? Join me again next week as I will be discussing it in that article.
When most people think about power, they only think about one kind, control. And because of that, they instinctually believe that power is inherently bad, because no one really wants to be controlled or manipulated.
However, there are many different forms of power, both good and bad. The difference is in how one chooses to wield it. In this week’s article we will go over each one of them.
In last week’s article, I stated that power is not for everyone, and I was right. But power within the context of that article was specifically related to leadership. I also stated that although leadership is definitely not for everyone, there are other forms of power that one can embrace.
But because the word “power” is overwhelmingly used as a euphemism for control and manipulation, the other forms are often overlooked, or not readily viewed as forms of power. The proof of that is that many people make the mistake of mentioning money and power as if they were two different things, which is always laughable to me.
So without further ado, the many forms of power.
Definition of Power:
First of all, what is power?
Power, so far as I understand it, is the leverage to be able to do whatever you so choose, and to be able to do so with impunity. For example, I am no different from Hitler in the fact that we both want power. The difference lies in the kind of power we want, and how we choose to obtain it.
Hitler wanted control over massive populations of people, and chose propaganda and bloodshed to get it. Jim Jones, David Coresh and Charles Manson wanted the same thing as Hitler, but over smaller groups of people who were more the religious type, and thus easier to manipulate.
Similar to PigBoss who wants control over a handful of desperate people, who themselves are in need of the ability to feed their children, and easily chooses to sell their power away in order to obtain limited power in the form of temporary provisions.
Another example is the fake friend/relative/coworker who wants to be able to borrow a bunch of free shit they have no intention of ever returning, so they intentionally set out to get you to like them enough to grant them easy access to you. Then there’s me. And all along, I just want the freedom to be able to earn a sustainable living from reclusive authorship.
In order to know whether or not you have power, you must ask yourself two basic, yet fundamental questions. What do I want to do? Am I able to do it freely? If your answer to the second question is no, then you are being controlled.
Control and Manipulation:
The first is the most popular form, and the most obvious, but also the most negative and self-serving form at the same time. The people who practice this form of power are psychopaths and narcissists. They will do and say whatever it takes to get you under their control.
That is where tactics such as gaslighting, breadcrumbing and projection comes into play. They will make you love them if they think it will make you serve them and give them a bunch of undeserved free shit. You tend to encounter these types in families, churches, in relationships, and on jobs.
Control is ultimately the most powerless form of power, because these people’s need for control and attention always comes from a deep-rooted place of insecurity. They don’t want control because they possess leadership qualities that they feel can be put to use. They want control for the sake of control, similar to “Big Brother” from a certain Orwellian dystopia.
They always target someone easy going who they feel won’t put up much of a fight. That’s why you need to fight like a honey badger whether or not you will actually win. Stop worrying about winning and start thinking about your survival. Sometimes persistence is the only weapon you need.
Leadership:
Often confused with control, leadership is the ability to command respect without demanding it. What do I mean by that? Leadership is basically the ability to take the initiative and lead by example. As a leader, you have the ability to make people want to listen to what you say, want to follow what you do.
This is something that has to come naturally, it cannot be forced, it requires charisma, ideas, and foresight in order to be effective, and is popular among schoolteachers and politicians. The best examples of strong, effective leadership that I can think of are that of the former Jamaican Prime Minister Michael Manley and former President Barack Obama. Other examples include civil rights leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr and Malcolm X.
Donald Trump doesn’t possess Obama’s charisma, but he gets the job done, so his style is a unique form of leadership. Leadership requires some form of influence. It also requires some level of control, and as such, it is therefore the middle ground between control and influence.
But unlike the malignant mentor who gains power from keeping you powerless, the natural leader is strong when we are all stronger together. Sadly, we have more control freaks in today’s world than we have natural leaders.
Influence:
The kind of power wielded by authors, journalists, actors, singers, artists, and socialites (now referred to as social media influencers).
To date, the most accurate definition of power that I have ever heard besides my own, was said by the late Jamaican talk show host Wilmot Perkins in 1998, when he said that power, “is the ability to effectuate one’s will over other people whether that person is willing or unwilling.” Perkins gave that definition on power when asked by fellow journalist Cliff Hughes whether or not journalists have power to which he said, “no, journalists have influence.”
But Perkins was only concerned about state power and leadership. As such, he failed to realize that influence is but one form of power. As a journalist myself, I regard myself as having the power of influence. If the underlying conditions of a single life can be improved from them reading this article, then that is power.
Physical Power:
The man with a car, looks at the man boarding a private chopper and says, “Man, I wish I had a chopper.” The man with a bicycle looks at the man with a car, and says, “I wish I had a car.” The man walking to the bus stop looks at the man with a bicycle and says, “I wish I had a bicycle.” Then the man in a wheelchair looks at the man walking and says, “I wish I had feet.”
Likewise, it can be said that the 95 year old man looks at the 39 year old complaining about gaining a little salt in his pepper and laughs, for he wishes he was 39, or even 50 again.
The physical power of youth coupled with the proper nutrition, rest and exercise will increase your chances of surviving an illness, as well as boost your recovery speed. You can’t pick up a dumbbell at 75 and expect to reverse the effects of your age, you have to start when you are still young. Never underestimate the power of your physical strength.
Spending Power:
Money. This is a big one.
Have you ever participated in a rather modern consumer activity more commonly known as window shopping? You look inside the display case of a store, and see something you want, but won’t buy it on the spot.
Well why don’t you just go inside the store and buy it? You obviously want it, right? What kind of power do you lack if at the moment, you are unable to walk inside the store and purchase the item outright? Spending power.
Spending power is a big one, and you will likely take it for granted until the moment you are faced with a pink slip, or an emergency that wipes out all of your life savings. At least you had savings. The key is in learning how to increase your spending power, and how to fool-proof it indefinitely. More on that in knowledge.
Knowledge:
They literally say that knowledge is power. If you have knowledge, not only will you be able to avoid the kind of traps set forth by narcissists and control freaks, but you will also be able to open several streams of passive income, so as not to remain dependent on these fools. Once you gain knowledge, only then will you realize that it was just an old man behind a curtain pulling the strings all along. An old man known simply as fear.
I call upon you now to make a pledge. Not to me, but to yourselves to gain as much knowledge as you can over the next five years from now until December 31, 2029. Knowledge on money and how to grow it. Knowledge on nutrition and gerontology. Knowledge on the different personality types and their motivations as well as who to avoid. Knowledge on mental health and stability. But above all else, knowledge of self.
Who are you? What are your likes and dislikes? Where do you want to spend the rest of your life? What do you want to do with your life? With whom do you want to do it? Make a pledge to yourselves to shut out all the noises and neuroses of the 21st century and do some thorough soul searching. Because knowledge is power.
The word selfish has always had a negative connotation. This is largely due to the fact that most people misuse the word, and take it out of context. It is true that selfishness can be quite harmful depending on how it is used. But did you know that there are in fact two forms of selfishness? Today we will be exploring the positive connotations of selfishness.
Selfish people will call a reserved person selfish for not allowing others to be selfish with them. The selfish person in question is not inherently wrong for calling the private person selfish. The problem here is that they make it seem like he who is more reserved is the only one who is selfish. When in fact, EVERYBODY IS SELFISH.
Somehow it’s only wrong when you are selfish, but not them. Almost as if there was an unwritten expectation that you are supposed to be the only selfless one in the room so they can easily get away with being selfish with you, but the moment you fight back, you are the selfish one. Do you see the gaslighting in that?
But then again, what did you really expect from selfish people? There is an old saying, “if a thief really wants something, consider it gone.” So then apply that same logic to the context of this article. If a thief really wants your submission, you don’t know how far they are willing to go to get it. It becomes like a game to them. They will obsess night and day over it, and they won’t stop until they have you like a puppet on a string.
They will find other mentally deranged people to agree with them and back them up when they are wrong. They have already identified their target. This is done far in advance, and is usually motivated by hidden feelings of envy that they have all collectively harbored towards the target’s inherently good nature.
The only thing left to do now is to single out the target and gaslight him or her as a group. They can’t just leave well enough alone, they have to try and control the target somehow. If they can deprive you of something as vital as your free will, they feel like they have won, which is exactly what makes them so damned sadistic.
But did you know that you are being negatively selfish by enabling them? Let me explain; your need to prove them wrong comes from a place of ego. By selfishly feeding your ego, you are distracting yourself from practicing a more positive form of selfishness that better preserves your higher existence. But what does that actually look like? Here are several examples:
Asserting non-negotiable boundaries when dealing with people.
Swiftly and aggressively cutting off toxic relatives, friends, bosses, co-workers, girlfriends, deities. You get the picture.
Prioritizing peace, privacy, health, wealth, comfort and ultimately your life’s purpose over friends/drama, etc.
Choosing to pamper yourself over accepting crappy job offers among other forms of humiliation rituals. You don’t have to be rude. You can simply say, “Thanks for the offer, but I must respectfully decline.” That’s it!
Choosing vital nutritional sources, and touching grass and water versus stressing over kids and bills all the damn time.
Choosing not to marry when you know you are not the type to ever settle down. As selfish as that is, it is still better than playing with people’s feelings.
And so you see, the difference between me and other selfish people is that I am selfish with my own life, while they are selfish with other people’s lives. As selfish as I am, I still respect each individual’s sovereign autonomy over their own lives.
Do not be selfish with other people’s lives. And above all else, do not allow others to be selfish with your life. That, dear reader, is the clear difference between sadism and hedonism.
