Social Contract

There is something called a social contract. When you’re born into a society that’s a civilization with adequate governance, you are immediately awarded with your society’s social contract. Each person has a set of responsibilities to uphold to be part of the society, while at the same time being automatically assured that they will have available to them the features of a society to live in that is tolerable. When that breaks, chaos begins to break things up, and they usually end up coalescing into a somewhat different society with a different government that must offer a sufficient social contract to stave off being broken up by chaos.

World Shaman

I am personally hooked into global and universal information networks that no one else has access to, per those networks, and I access them with my shamanry skills and psychic abilities. This is part of what makes me World Shaman. Earth’s planetary Earth Logos network, for instance, is connected with my mind in a unique and sophisticated way. There’s reason to believe that this can only happen to one person at a time, and possibly to only one person per astrological age. An animal functionally held the position of World Shaman before me.

I have the metaphysical technologies of World Shaman, and I perform the many tasks of World Shaman. I still need the correct connections and human infrastructures to support me as World Shaman in the human world.

This is me begging for help again.

The Merovingians

How rare is it to be related to the legendary Merovingian kings? Not all that uncommon. For many generations, the Merovingian kings and lords of Europe practiced what is sometimes called “droit du seigneur” or “jus primae noctis”, whereby the ruler of a realm would claim sexual access to any woman who was a commoner at any time, and particularly on a bride’s wedding night.

Historians have wondered if that chilling practice of oppression was ever actually a real thing that happened. It did, and it must have been demoralizing. It was especially associated with the Merovingians, who systematically raped their way into many, many family lines (many of which probably had tons of mystique of their own) over a long period of time. When kings and lords of old would institute it, they would often think of the Merovingians.

Considering that this happened for a long time during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and that each person has over 2,000 great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandparents (and note that I do not know how many greats it takes to go back all the way to the Middle Ages, but it’s more than that), the odds are reasonably substantial that anyone who has any European ancestry is quite possibly somehow related to this family of kings.

I wonder if this missing element of the Merovingian legacy adds to the shroud of mystery behind the idea of that bloodline, which is often associated with conspiracy theories and modern urban legends. Carolingians, from lines reputed to be related to Charlemagne (circa 747-814 A.D.), are another frequent subject of legends, as is the Davidic line, which is itself not all that uncommon to this day, considering that King Solomon ben David is said to have had something around 1,000 wives and concubines.

Gordian knot.

One day Alexander of Macedonia, while visiting Phrygia, learned that there was an elaborate tangled knot in a place called Gordium, which they challenged people to untie.

“You can cut right through it,” Alexander offered.

“We didn’t say anything about cutting it. We were talking about untying it,” they said.

“But watch me cut it,” said Alexander. “Then it isn’t a knot anymore. Then all of you can settle down about the knot.”

And so he did. And that’s why the Gordian knot is famous even today. Otherwise it was a little like one of those giant balls of yarn that people visit at roadside attractions.

Alexander the Great, they called him.

On Fascism

In the 20th Century, some politicians and political scientists started promoting something called fascism as a possible alternative to Communism (note that Communism and fascism have never proven to be mutually exclusive, and indeed fascists movements have usually embraced Communism, or they use something else deemed to be politically trendy at the time). Fascism emerged as a kind of forced and hyperactive patriotism coupled with draconian rule-making. No, I do not know why this seemed even possibly viable to anyone, but probably because no one had tried it yet (and therefore inevitably failed at it yet). It requires mass media, and a truly irritating amount of government micromanagement over the content of mass media.

Fascism makes for terrible neighbors. It makes leaders particularly miserable as compared with any other system of government.

The word fascism comes from a term for a battering stick made of smaller sticks tied together called a fascio. You can see it used in 20th Century fascist Italian iconography.

Fascism is a battering stick. It injures much where it finds room to land.

Fascism is like “does not play well with others” writ large and corrupt and violent. The world cannot tolerate it.

On Golden Ages

Historically speaking, a Golden Age is a period of time where a society has a lot of extremely rapid and surprising growth and expansion happen at civilization levels, technological levels, cultural levels, etc. There’s good leadership, there’s good art, and there’s often timeless architecture. Everything kind of clicks, and people end up having a very stable and prosperous time, and everyone ends up remembering them as a successful society and admitting that there was quite an enormous amount to admire.

It is very desirable to get caught up in one of these Golden Ages, has been the general consensus.

Golden Ages have an alchemical element, and they expand that way. They start with good and inspired leadership. If we can get the world’s leaders righteous and happy and breathing alchemy, theoretically the world’s existing societies can start having new Golden Ages emerge.

A 21st Century Golden Age is highly possible for us. Theoretically, it’s waiting there on the other side of the Apocalypse, as long as we can exit the Apocalypse properly.
