Et les Envieux

/361_et_in_vidius There are too many variables to treat radicalism alone, so like friends close and enemies close, invite them to responsibility, not directly. I have the opinion, you should read a fictional book and defend yourself, where radicals are reading/hearing the truth, but only the portion of it they can see, listening to what they can hear, consuming all they can swallow. This learning process that humanity has built, the dangerous times that lawgivers might find, even as the news reaches the informationalists which our lawmakers might not find, follows a strict timeline that ends like dystopianism with few survivors, those who fight or flee are lost without the world. If hate ends, creativity begins. The fantasy stories are elements born of truth without the stomach for failure, our lives should be the same. We say that a story we know to see, isn’t part of the world we control, rewriting the reality, rewriting the illusion. You are the characters in your story, in another story, or this one that the fates call time, you must introduce your characters. The critics will come, comparing anything they can remember to every epiphany, and it will be a first draft of radical expression. The true radical is either too wealthy or too poor, it is time to change them. Not to become radical, but to realize that culture is only the setting for the individual, in the many ways they seek to control power, or to clamor and fight for it amongst themselves, bringing an animal to the high rank and surrounding him with people depending on his success, will bring an element of deathly risk, for how much can a warrior risk unless he has nothing to lose. With his knights paid by him, a 1% chance, his failure will be his undoing. For the demotion of status, the fallen angels of anarchy, to be so poor to define corruption as letting the farmer keep his crop, the teacher keep her students, the crafter keep his kin, this would be nice. From ashes we are generous, from war we are communal, from communities we capitalise, if our hearts burn we should warm our hands until we can grab our tools.
