Recent observations and studies of my own, have confirmed for me various aspects about humanity. Society in general no less.

One of those things is the inherent need for social movement. A sense of being affiliated with something larger than themselves to even a degree of "world changing." More so something with that essence of a mark on history to some degree.

Every generation has them in one form or another.. and, as a side note - there is somewhat of a duality transpiring in the modern day, which oddly enough the larger social motion actually acts to corroborate.

The duality itself seems to exist between a resurgence of a former social body now exerting itself again - that being the "Baby Boomer" generation - as it ages.

Sheer girth in that respect plays a large role in the "resurgence" aspect as well as a considerable amount of it being housed within the larger, more recent social "movement" which is affiliated with a not-for-profit group no less.

Further, this recent social movement is fueled with the concentrated want of many of those involved with it, to feel some form of atonement and progressive success with and of their own lives. This then obviously creates a motion in itself of sorts which may not be altogether the better direction for such social movements.

I realize it sounds somewhat ass-backwards, but the over imposed effort to even look as though such is on the "good guys side" actually results in an imbalance socially which differs from other, past social movements given that it is comprised of such an overwhelming aspect of wanting to do good.

This isn't to say that wanting to "do good" is all that bad, only that in the larger resulting dynamic, such pronounced imbalance results in as much or more social ill as it does in social progress.

In so many words, and not to confound anyone - and further with very little interest in explaining myself given the level of waste in such efforts within the "good guy" atmosphere; doing "good" to the level of saturation in the "good guy" sense, isn't possible to begin with. Then further, within that motion, doing "good" to such extremes, eventually only becomes promoting "bad" with the very actions intended to be "good" and as a "good" result.

In that knowledge, and considering the lack of insight at that level and degree obviously being employed and acted within concerning the more recent social motions; If it were that somehow the abolition of alcohol entirely could be achieved, I most definitely then count myself in that grouping of people.

I must say though, that my interests in such directions are for much different reasons than those of the "good guy" extreme within such organizations.

At this point in time, it very much is that my interests in promoting such results are in the effort of hastening the period of ill effect between establishing such an extreme and the reintroduction of reasonable human existence. Given of course, that such a success on a large scale would bring such drastic changes in the extreme that society itself would then suffer great ills - simply within the imbalance itself.. which then would sooner result in social uprising in the more proper direction for successful and conducive results - being that of countering the prevailing social constraints of imposed confinements on society in general.

Of course that is if such could then transpire before the impending genocide and social cleansing within the efforts of those extremes in social conditioning.

Let's not forget here, beyond the ego's in supposed positions of power, the general idea was/is in promoting pleasurable existence. Even and especially within those organizations with designs on removing the idea of the consumption of alcohol.

The bootlegger would find a great resurgence as well within such efforts given that the facts of the matter concerning alcohol, is that it has remained a consistent aspect in human existence since recorded history. Fermented beverage has even saved humanity on occasion within time periods where people were too stupid to keep their water sources clean in that ongoing eco-cycle exchange we have somehow managed to stumble upon - and coincidentally continue to attempt to damage in our supposed "advance."

Laughable really as a person considers the development of humanity being very near a coinciding time line with purposeful efforts resulting in near annihilation of the species itself. Somehow, within such re-occurring near sightedness - there is always some smart ass that didn't die off in the "progress" who manages to again see the greater wisdom in social progression.

This not necessarily directly affiliated with the consumption of alcohol - but is more in regard to the greater motion in more efficient "progresses." The sort which render "development" as opposed to destruction through topical application of something someone else may have written down or said.

If we could somehow manage to find that jack ass this time around, maybe we can manage to "improve" humanity right out of existence this time around? Un-alcohol the human species into extinction no less.

But first, we have to find that son of a bitch with the bright ideas that seem to thwart our every attempt to better things into the shit hole.

And then of course is the effort to make everyone even dumber just to make sure that no such bastard can arise to ruin the fun of turning a very potential, pleasurable existence into some mutated result of ego's over applied onto even the human strain itself.

If I could find that so and so.... there is just no telling what I would do to insure that a given portion of the population having committed themselves to such efforts for what ever reasons - again, many of the reasons not being "bad" so to speak - I think I might just have to take advantage of the situation and opportunity to make myself look like a great hero and "do gooder" in the effort of incapacitating the sensible son of bitch!

I might even orchestrate some grand social ploy to make sure that he or she had no freaking way to ruin the larger social efforts in removing the consumption of alcohol.

Sure, such efforts are very much like taking the short cut.... very much as bad as taking the short cut for other reasons and designs.... but, the activity of social construction and society forming are at an all time high if you compare it to modern forms of construction.

I would assembly line that bastard! And his or her bright ideas about approaching existence as if it were something to be experienced and formed through such moderate interests.

Common non member son of bitch, anyway!

Something I just cannot get over in the modern versions of "social movements" is the seeming lack of even the most basic recognition pertaining to the subversionairy aspects of said. Most of the modern people involved in such movement, have not the faintest clue as to the potential use in a larger damaging sense of their narrow focus in goal.

Essentially, the modern society has rendered big brains without the slightest clue of their actual existence as common tools in that very sense. The "prize" of their supposed success then acting to further blind them to actual developments which will probably not play out for some years on the wake of their own efforts.

But of course, that is the kind of stuff that the smart ass son of bitch we all hate, would say. So maybe... just so no one thinks I have any bright ideas beyond the television programming for the month.. I should not explore the reasonable and very common sorts of "action/reaction" ramifications which result from large motions of social ideas when applied in an overly imposed sense.

Besides, the more people we can get affiliated with the "good guy" motion of our no-booze stance, the more of that pretty money stuff we can get... regardless of the actual process which begot it. Such is not of concern beyond having a bigger pile of it... even if it only eventually becomes toilet paper as result of our superior direction(s) in amassing it.

If I were in charge... in charge of the "good guy" thingy... I think I would most definitely be on the look out for more than one of those bad guy wise ass fellows. It just stands to reason that there would be more than one of them trying to tell us that telling people what to do isn't the most efficient way to get things to change.

There should be a big reward for getting one of those common bastards out of the mix. Maybe, just to take advantage of the efficiency within our own short cut directions... the big reward could be a few cases of toilet paper! Just so we don't have to go through the trouble of no longer calling money, money and having to realign our own reasoning to start calling it all toilet paper.

Man, is it going to be fun when we can say who gets some toilet paper and who doesn't! Especially if they don't want to be one of the really good guys and promote the abstinence of something like alcohol.

That is a sure sign of potential smart ass guy. When it is that someone doesn't seem to recognize that our "good karma" is better than what would actually constitute "karma" in result of social influence and living. That is most definitely a sign of bad karma, common smart ass guy!

Especially if they don't alphabetize everything.

Those guys get to be the generals because they know how to make everything get put into a specific place... which means that they then know how to make everyone do what we want them to do.

I think we should start making people not go outside when ever they want, too. The general guys can do that one really good.

Maybe, after we can get some good guy, guys in the proper political offices - it can just be mandatory to have timed locks on everyones door. That would be great!

That would probably make it allot easier to keep people from using alcohol while we get rid of all the guys that sell it.

Our way is just better, you know. Even if the reasoning has been lost and replaced with the mechanical "doing of things" without understanding of the more sensitive aspects. That sensitive stuff is for the common son of a bitch, too.

Modern people just want things that we say they want anyway... and human sensitivity is not one of them!

Man, are we going to get some neat stuff!

Where do I sign up, again? I want to sign up a bunch of times!

It just stands to reason that the more I sign up in the "good guy" team, the more goody guy stuff that will happen.

Of course, I guess I have to find someone within that reasoning to say did the stuff I might inadvertently do throughout the normal day which isn't good guy stuff? Just so I can maintain some impossible posturing of having accomplished some inhuman - some impossible act of having conformed to all of the stuff on the list that says; "Good guys only do this"

Then all of the stuff that happens during the day that is on the list of things that bad guys do, like fart for instance, can just be blamed on someone else.

Then, I will always be a good guy totally conformed to the list of good guy things... and then never would it be possible to accuse me of being that rotten, common, bright idea son of a bitch.

Even if I weren't trying to be that bastard! No one could ever say that I did something on the bad guy list... and that would mean that I had good karma as we have all come to believe good karma to be.

Besides, I want my karma to match my credit card read out.

That is, after all, what really counts in counting the karma. Just ask the most popular karma guys.

If I happened to be that bright idea son of a bitch.. which I could possibly never be, if only because I am no where near as smart as the good guy, good karma general guys - I would seem to think that actual productive progress is in and from common existence without the over imposed efforts to make the larger motion conform to unreasonable constraints.

But thankfully, and yet again, there is no possible way I could be one of those useless ass holes. Especially because I want everyone to get all of the neat stuff that they want... even if it is well out of their personal skills.

Actually acknowledging stuff like that is bad guy list stuff, anyway. Bad karma.. even if it is simply addressed and then perhaps worked on as far as developing such skill level. And even if failing to acknowledge such means the potential deaths of thousands. It is still good karma to insist that someone without even the actual interest in something, is actually in charge of it consciously and in a cogitative manner.

If a person cannot cook their way out of a paper bag - you still have to say that they are the chef. Especially if they have a certificate from a place that says a person can cook. Or for instance, if they know someone in management... and again, especially if it is that they have no interest beyond someone saying that they are a chef... even if they show no further in development of skills.

That is the "good guy code!" And it is bad karma not to comply with such social governing tactics.

Ask the karma guys.
