I do not think I belong to any ideology.
Because I think, identifying with anything identifiable “whatever” restricts the enormousness of our being. So when I read the so called intelligent people taking definitions like Left and communist, capitalist and imperialism, for granted – and try to discuss things around them with total belief and conviction - that they know the answers of all; it makes me smile and laugh at the stupidity of their ignorance.
Words -spoken or written - can bring forward that conviction and influence people. People with little orientation and training to question everything, can take things for granted and be taken for a ride by the so called intellectuals - be them spiritual gurus, political experts, or management leaders or today’s media editors.
Recently I have been following the debate around India-US Nuclear Deal, and how everyone – especially the media are jumping to show their sides. Any new topic in front of the commercial frenzy media is like a “bone for a dog” – food for fodder. We can see the excitement among the editors, when they meet to discuss or write their articles on such issues. And they all look like 14 year old boys or girls who have been to a party and are excited to first time see the opposite sexes. That is the energy they give out. I think they are programmed to behave that way or they learn those tips of their media (flesh) trade. Among them there are those so called wise men – who keep a serious face, as if they know all the answers and speak with such moron subnormal intelligence – that they start irritating your nerves.
But sadly, such is the influence of today’s competitive media! And everyone working in it and / or listening to it – is an inescapable victim.
If you know how to speak and how to write – you can utter any drivel – and you will look convincing to others.
While debating, people forget the meaning of words and juggle around with use of vocabulary and jargons (gobbledygook was the new word I read somewhere!) just to show off their new learning!!! People add contexts to the debate that have never been slightly close to the actual issue.
Everyone in this world knows that the only purpose that drives the NEW world of today is MONEY….! So anything that is even slightly hinting to stop that dream of riding the horse of wealth is seen with utter dislike and looked down upon.
How can one kick one’s own belly? Especially when one gets salary, food, living from money and wealth – so anyone speaking a bit against pursue of becoming rich – is seen as an enemy to human kind.
This people try to present logic of using Pro-American, anti-American Marxists, Communist, Capitalist, Imperialist, Stalinist, Socialist phrases in the minds of people who read or listen to them – just to prove a point that – LET ME and EVERYONE ELSE run behind money.
Their views are so short-sighted (just restricted to theirs and their off-spring’s generations).
They live in the culture of I-ME-MYSELF!
What is wrong in that? They ask! My rights!!!! Uff…what to say to those fellows? Who breathe half an ounce of air and spill out tones of CO2 footprints as side-effect of their luxurious living!
Blindly gaping at intellectual garbage is a past time for today’s commercialized world – and as per the American dream, one gets paid millions for pretending and projecting a behavior of yourself – which you are not! And most of them who fit this role are normally not aware of their pretensions and tortured programming that has made them pursue this road. They rationalize it by “It was my right to choose…”
Sometimes, we see the media persons when broad-casting these stories– depending upon their economic, political pressures and interest – shy away from taking sides and restrict themselves with presenting with all dutiful holiness both the sides of the coin.
But when water starts running behind their interests – they jump in the bandwagon of searching and inventing all words and phrases of euphemism bashing of what they dislike.
At times when one hears and reads such discussions – and those – I do not understand or know they are Left or Right (but amazingly they seem to understand and know it!) – Who vehemently speak out; simply look like as if they come from a Devilish land from the Hell of greed, selfishness and army of dominating race.
When will we see a world where things are seen in plain simple terms rather than it being those who are converting them into pre-judged notional definition and newly invented jargons, that tend to justify everything that is not for human or nature?
What the world one has come to live in?
