Are We Insane for Saying that the World is Run by Insane People???

Written by: Livia B.

Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal
ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.--John
Lennon
Do pitiful beings like us deserve to be called 'insane'...?
The world may label someone like John Lennon to be 'a conspiracy theorist'. Firstly, how can we define 'a conspiracy
theorist'?
What is a 'Conspiracy Theorist'?
The following excerpts are taken from: Coady, David. "Are Conspiracy Theorists Irrational?" A Journal of Social
Epistemology, 4, no.2. (2007): 193-204
Premise 1: Unless you believe that the reports of history books and the nightly news are largely false, you are a
conspiracy theorist.
Premise 2: If you do believe that the reports of history books and the nightly news are largely false, you are a
conspiracy theorist.
Conclusion: You are a conspiracy theorist.
The validity of this argument is a matter of simple propositional logic. What is the status of its premises? Pigden
establishes the first premise by citing numerous reports of conspiracies from history books and the media.
To believe any of these reports is to subscribe to a conspiracy theory, and hence to be a conspiracy theorist. But to
disbelieve all of these reports is also to be a conspiracy theorist, since only conspiracy could explain such
widespread and apparently systematic falsehood, and again you are a conspiracy theorist. The only way you
could avoid the conclusion that you are a conspiracy theorist, on Pigdens definition, would be by being almost
completely ignorant of what history books and the media say. Hence, Pigden concludes that every historically and
politically literate person is a conspiracy theorist.

Given this definition (or rather, tautology!), perhaps we may grant the fact that not ALL of us are irrational. In fact, the
peak of human ignorance and arrogance is when we merely dismiss other people's claims as 'strange' or 'insane'
without conducting further research and investigation on our part in order to inform our judgment.

"Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding"--Mahatma Gandhi
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."--Mahatma Gandhi

Why is there so much resistance? Could it be that 'the Matrix' has only gotten people duller...?

Where they were put in boxes/And they came out all the same/And there's doctors and lawyers/And business
executives/And they're all made out of ticky tacky/And they all look just the same.--Malvina Reynolds in Little Boxes

Don't mind wearing the ragged britches/'Cause those who succeed are the sons of bitches/I don't mind failing in this
world.-- Malvina Reynolds in I Don't Mind Failing

Consider some other powerful voices below:

***Bob Marley***
Men see their dreams and aspirations/Crumble in front of their face/And all of their wicked intention/To destroy the
human race.- Bob Marley in Chant Down Babylon

We refuse to be who you wanted us to be/We are who we are, and that's the way/It's going to be.../Talking about my
freedom/People freedom and liberty./Babylon system is the vampire, falling empire/Sucking the blood of the
sufferers/Building church and university/Deceiving the people continually....-Bob Marley in Babylon System

Don't let them fool you/Or even try to school you!/We've got a mind of our own/So go to hell if what you're thinking is
not right!/Love would never leave us alone/In the darkness there must come out the light./Don't let them change
you/Or even rearrange you!/We've got a life to live./They say: only, only/Only the fittest shall survive/Stay alive, eh?-
Bob Marley in Could You Be Loved

Why boasteth thyself/Oh, evil men/Playing smart/And not being clever?/I said, you're working iniquity/To achieve
vanity/But the goodness of Jah/Endures forever./If you are the big tree, let me tell you that/We are the small
axe/sharp and ready/Ready to cut you down-Bob Marley in Small Axe

***Leonard Cohen***
Everybody knows the fight was fixed/The poor stay poor, the rich get rich/ That's how it goes/Everybody
knows/Everybody knows that the boat is leaking/Everybody knows that the captain lied /Everybody got this broken
feeling /Like their father or their dog just died./ And everybody knows that it's now or never/Everybody knows that it's
me or you/And everybody knows that you live forever/Ah when you've done a line or two/Everybody knows the deal
is rotten/Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton/For your ribbons and bows/And everybody knows. -Leonard Cohen in
Everybody Knows


Democracy is coming to the U.S.A./It's coming to America first/the cradle of the best and of the worst./It's here they
got the range/and the machinery for change/and it's here they got the spiritual thirst./It's here the family's broken/and
it's here the lonely say/that the heart has got to open/in a fundamental way:/Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.-
Leonard Cohen in Democracy

Give me absolute control/Over every living soul/And lie beside me, baby/That's an order.... There'll be the breaking of
the ancient western code/Your private life will suddenly explode/There'll be phantoms/There'll be fires on the
road/And the white man dancing.../Your servant here, he has been told/To say it clear, to say it cold:/It's over, it ain't
going/Any further. -Leonard Cohen in The Future
If you're squeezed for information/That's when you've got to play it dumb/You just say you're out there waiting/For the
miracle, for the miracle to come.- Leonard Cohen in Waiting for the Miracle
***Michael Jackson***
All I wanna say is they don't really care about us./I'm the victim of police brutality, now/I'm tired of being the victim of
hate/You're raping me of my pride, for God's sake/I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy/Set me free./...Some things in
life they just don't want to see/But if Martin Luther was living, he wouldn't let this be.- Michael Jackson in They Don't
Care About Us
Hold me like the river Jordan/And I will then say to thee/You are my friend./...But they told me a man should be
faithful/And walk when not able/And fight till the end/But I'm only human.-Michael Jackson in Will You Be There

What about apathy/I need you/What about nature's worth/It's our planet's womb/What about animals/Turned
kingdoms to dust/What about elephants/Have we lost their trust/What about crying whales/Ravaging the seas/What
about forest trails/Burnt despite our pleas/What about the holy land/Torn apart by creed/What about the common
man/Can't we set him free/What about children dying/Can't you hear them cry/Where did we go wrong/Someone tell
me why/What about baby boy/ What about the days/What about all their joy/What about the man/What about the
crying man/What about Abraham/What about death again/Do we give a damn- Michael Jackson in Earth Song

WHAT is the point of this?

The voices above are the children of the City of Peace; the children of Yerushalayim. The children know that
the only true religion in this world, one that transcends all man-made institutions, is the religion of Abraham; LOVE.
Love is our only means of survival. The reason I am writing this to you is because we truly don't have much time...
The Pharisees and the Sadducees, the hypocrite 'bankers', are the ones saying that "only the fittest of the
fittest shall survive". At times, I wonder if their favourite movie is "Planet of the Apes". Or maybe Francis Galton,
the one who coined the word 'eugenics' could tell us the standard deviation for the true children of Abraham scattered
over all the Earth. I wonder if Galton's half-cousin, Darwin, had a theory for the true human race as well...Are we not
as numerous as the stars? Yet, we're struggling to survive, for we have psychopathic slaves ruling over us....

Loved ones, World War 3 is soon approaching and the world's rulers and religious institutions are lying to us,
'the 99%'... How do I know this? I know this from the same Light and the same spirit that caressed the minds of all
the other Children's voices mentioned above. I beg you to wake up before it's too late. These are like Noach's
days and truly I tell you, the hypocrites' years can be counted on the fingers of two hands. These are the
words of my King, the Light. All governments are illegal, for the only true law comes from the Word....

The Light spoke to me and I have sent out the words back into 'light' through the internet so that they can be seen by
you. I wrote "Tell the Children the Truth" for you, 'the 99%', for I will always love you. Please seek for the
truth....do not blindly comply and trust so-called 'authority figures'. History and present times have proven to
us that our 'rulers' cannot be trusted. Please keep safe, for the love of wisdom is the true weapon.

I started with a quotation from John Lennon, who may have been called 'insane', and I'll end with an excerpt from one
of his well-known songs, longing for you to join the 'oneness' as well: Imagine there's no countries/It isn't hard to
do/Nothing to kill or die for/And no religion too./Imagine all the people/Living life in peace.../You may say I'm a
dreamer/But I'm not the only one/I hope someday you'll join us/And the world will be as one.- John Lennon in Imagine
R.I.P. my family, the true children of Jerusalem: John Lennon, Mahatma Ghandi, Bob Marley, Michael
Jackson...amongst many others. It's been written that a servant is not greater than his master. If they
persecuted their master, they will also persecute them...
A man who was completely innocent, offered himself as a sacrifice for the good of others, including his enemies, and
became the ransom of the world. It was a perfect act.-Mahatma Gandhi
2000 years of history could not be wiped so easily...don't gain the world and lose your soul.-Bob Marley in Zion Train
Why do the servants still speak, knowing the dangers? Are they all fools?

"Someone will say: And are you not ashamed, Socrates, of a course of life which is likely to bring you to an untimely
end? To him I may fairly answer: There you are mistaken: a man who is good for anything ought not to calculate the
chance of living or dying; he ought only to consider whether in doing anything he is doing right or wrong acting the
part of a good man or a bad."- Apology, 28b-d

'democratic' Athens (399 B.C)
