We proposed that society is a kind of system and that the elements that make up a societal system are its individual members. If we take these ideas further then what follows is that society itself does not exist in some other country, far off region, nor exclusively in the territory which you dwell. Society itself doesn't exist in any one building, set of buildings, or in any architectural structure. Society itself does not exist one document, set of documents, or any oral declarations. Society doesn't exist in any particular race, sex, class, “elite” group, nor in any one single individual. Society does not exist out there--some where. Society exists in you. Society exists within you. Society exists within you and everyone around you. In essence, you are your particular society.
You are a seed of your society. The thoughts in your mind, continually influenced by everything around you, directly and indirectly, is where society exists. If you assassinate the queen, king, president, or prime minister others would simply take their place or be voted in. There is an assumption that their must be some recognized leader. If you blow up the court, congress, or parliament, convening would simply take place else where until the buildings are rebuilt. There is an assumption that there must be some governing body. If an empire, country, or corporation collapses today, others would vie to replace them tomorrow. There is an assumption that there must be organization over large territories. If all the constitutions, declarations, and documents were torn up and burned, in an effort to rewrite them, many of the details and emphasis might change but the main points and premises would be fundamentally the same. There's an assumption perhaps that if something unwritten is illegitimate. At this point we are not arguing the validity of any of these assumptions, for now we're pointing out that: Unless you have an alternate set of core beliefs, an alternate set of assumptions, an alternate vision, you would recreate the same essential structures and dynamics instilled by your particular society because society lives in you.
To change a society, first you change yourself, you change your mind. More accurately you begin the changing the thoughts, beliefs, expectations held in your mind. To do that you'll need to know what those thoughts, beliefs, and expectations are.

In some context the word ‘the’ doesn't simply imply a title, it implies something being the best, the most important, the ultimate. And its in this context that the word ‘the’ is constantly and unconsciously used when many speak of ‘the system’, ‘the matrix’, ‘the government.’ These entities are spoken of as if they were the creators of everything, some absolute, ultimate, all powerful, end-all-be-all structures of which there’s no escape. There is no 'the' system, 'the' matrix, or 'the' government--absolute, ultimate, and end-all-be-all.
A government isn’t some supernatural entity. A government is just a bunch of people, in a building perhaps, attempting to govern-minds and/or reflecting the thoughts and ideas that govern-minds. It doesn’t exist out there some where. It exists within you and those around you. And neither you, nor those around you are absolute, ultimate, end-all-be-all.
A matrix, a system, a societal system isn’t some supernatural entity. They are just a bunch of people, some mortal finite beings, perhaps populating all known territories, imbued with and indoctrinating minds with a certain set of core beliefs. Perhaps a set of core beliefs where the assumptions are that they are THE ultimate, all powerful, supernatural entity endowed with THE absolute, end-all-be-all truth.
The idea that some one society has the one way that all must live, can live, or will live, is...doubtful. The idea that some one society can be created that has the one way that all can live or will live, is a fairytale. The idea that effort must be put forth to create some one society that has the one way that all will live, is an exercise in futility.
Ecosystems, respiratory systems, computer systems, economic systems, political systems, there is no one system. There are many systems. Like species, there are many societies becoming extant and extinct, existing for a time. The DNA of all these societies are the beliefs, assumptions, or ‘truths’ held in common by it's members. No one group, culture, or society has a monopoly on the one absolute, ultimate, end-all-be-all truth. Every group, every culture, every society, has their own beliefs, some knowledge, some wisdom, a partial, multifaceted, temporal, evolving truth.
There is no one set of DNA that is the ultimate, absolute, end-all-be-all of genetic material. No one species has a monopoly on DNA. Every species has their own DNA, like every society has their own core beliefs and ways to pass it on.

In some contexts the word ‘the’ implies that something is the best, the most important, the ultimate. That context is most prevalent when one speaks of their truth as ‘the truth’.
“THE” truth? There is no one singular, absolute, ultimate, end-all-be-all truth. There is no one guru, prophet, or teacher with the one absolute, ultimate, end-all-be-all truth. There is no one group, culture, or society with the one absolute, ultimate, end-all-be-all truth. The idea that such knowledge even exists is merely an assumption. The idea that some knowledge of this magnitude could even be perceived by human minds, which can't hear past certain ranges or see past certain wavelengths, is just an assumption if not completely false. And finally the idea that some one human entity would have a monopoly on such knowledge just falls completely apart when the previous two assumptions are called into question.
A truth is that many ‘truths’ are simply a perspective--a reflection of one’s “reality”. A truth is that many ‘truths’, though appearing as real proven accurate fact, are actually assumptions and assertions upheld through years, decades, centuries, and even millennia of confirmation bias.
A truth is that there are many truths. A truth is that there are many levels of truth. A truth is that there are many planes of truth. A truth is that there are many dimensions of truth. A truth is that many guides, many mentors, many teachers offer some truth, some partial, multifaceted, temporal, evolving truth. Every group, every culture, every society offers some truth, some partial, multifaceted, temporal, evolving truth. Not "the" truth, simply a truth.
The truth is constant change. The truth is a complete process. The truth is an evolving creation creating evolution. The truth is all+ways here and now. The truth is all+ways all ways.
Even if it’s within one’s grasp to truly comprehend, is it within one’s ability to truly communicate? And even if it’s within one’s ability to truly communicate, is it within one’s ability to put it within another’s grasp to truly comprehend?
The truth can hardly be expressed, its almost impossible to explain, it can only be experienced. Be wary of any one claiming they alone have the truth.

Is there one single absolute truth? Is there any who could impart this single absolute truth? If one could impart the single absolute truth would all be able to understand it? If you haven't already, dismiss the idea there is oneThis principle when accepted and embraced opens minds. There are many processes, purposes, and pathways. There are many goals, aims, and objectives. There are many valuable subjects, methods, and teachings. There are many mentors, instructors, and teachers.
A closed mind generally assumes that there is one ultimate absolute truth and that they already found it, there by rejecting any other teachers or teachings not in line. Perhaps even this teaching we're presenting is false. However we believe still that there is no one single ultimate absolute end-all-be-all truth. There is no one single magic word, magic pill, or silver bullet. There is no one single ultimate prophet, teacher, or guru.
It's not even so much that there are many false prophets. It's that there's this unrealistic expectation that some one person, being, or experience has all the answers. What's closer to reality is that any one person, entity, or experience has some of answers. And none of those answers exist isolated in a vacuum. Like this 'Many Paths' principle they exist in some context, in some bigger picture, connected to other principles...

- How does identity, who we are, influence a society?
- How does a society reinforce identity, who we are?
- How does a society interact with those outside of their society?
- How do individuals interact with those inside of their society?
- And finally, how attached can humans be to an identity?

- There's assumptions we question.
- There's assumptions we know we're assuming, "for the sake of argument"
- There's assumptions so assumed, accepted as accurate that they become actual fact, and so are never questioned.
- BONUS: Questioning assumptions worth investigating, what are we supposed to do with this information.
Post: Culture and Society
- Does not exist in any one region, set of countries, or buildings
- Does not exist in any one person nor in any one class, sex, or race
- Regardless of your role whether major player or mere pawn, the core of a society/culture exists in every member equally, like the genes of siblings born to the same mother and father
Specialist External Extrinsic Society: because it conveys three key things about the society 1) the organization of labor 2) better, greater, or otherwise different from what is usual. 3) root word of special is species. and so like racist or sexist, specialist could convey those who practice "speciesism", those believe they are better, greater, or otherwise different from other species and have established a system of one species having the power to carry out systematic discrimination through the institutional policies and practices of the society and by shaping the cultural beliefs and values that support those specialist policies and practices 4) complex an obsession with appearing special. 5) special also has the meaning of some who is mentally not all together.

An idea is like a seed...the smallest seed of an idea can grow. It can grow to define you or destroy you. The simplest little idea such as, ‘I am only human.’
Those in human form have a tendency to project their truth or identity onto others, and so the seed of ‘I am only human’ grows into 'you are only one thing', 'they are only this thing or that thing'—either or and nothing more. This projection tendency is also applied to the environment, to conform, whether conscious or unconscious, to the environ+mental. The environ+mental in turn is influenced by the environment and a continuous loop is created.
What else might manifest from the idea that, 'I am only human'? Perhaps the idea that 'my truth is the only truth. My aim is the only aim. My way is the only way.' And thanks to the self-fulfilling prophecy we just mentioned, people then endeavor to make it so--where their way of life is the only way of life. There is only one system and it is universal and absolute. There is only one global human society and all will conform (or be coerced) to this one and only way. This is the only true ideal worth realizing.
A utopian society or the hope for a utopian society is an idea often disparaged as a thing of naive idealism. ‘If everyone would just XYZ, then the world would be better off.’ And there in lies the irony of those who bemoan utopian idealism and implore that people accept reality, 'if everyone would just accept reality, then things would be better off.’ Who's reality are we supposed to accept? How can subjective minds ever be objective? In what world has every person ever believed the same thing?
Problems of a utopian society or any ideal is that nothing is without it's 'problems'. For every benefit or advantage, there are trade-offs and consequences. For everything there is a cost. Some will pay at any cost. Some you couldn't give it away, whatever ideal doesn't appeal to them. Another major problem with the concept of a utopian society isn't the 'utopia' part, it's the 'a society' part. We know everybody is different and wants different things, so the struggle for a singular utopian society that all will conform to is in vain.
While we don't believe in a utopian society, we do believe in many utopian societies, because every person or group of people are different and desire different things. We believe in many spaces where people can live out their truths, ideals, and idiosyncrasies. Again people believe in and desire different things and to ignore this, dare we say, FACT, is delusional. Yet this is the mind state of those who firmly associate themselves 'specialist culture.'
Specialist Culture...
We were looking for a term that wasn’t loaded with positive or negative associations, yet could accurately describe the culture we’re referring to regardless of the stage of development its in, as some of its aspects only become apparent in advanced stages. The culture we’re referring to has been called imperialist culture, colonialist culture, gray culture, Younger Culture, taker culture, and Civilized culture.
Define and describe it: since we’re discussing core beliefs, calling it specialist culture more clearly describes what the culture is. The intent of why we call it specialist culture might become more clear as we re+view what ‘specialist’ and ‘special’ means.
Specialist: a person who concentrates primarily on a particular subject or activity; a person highly skilled in a specific and restricted field.
Special: 1) better, greater, or otherwise different from what is usual 2) common euphemism to denote those with mental challenges or learning difficulties...(we will later point out the occasions where specialist culture reveals its disassociated disorders, schizophrenic, or bipolar nature
Species: the root word of special, so we also mean specialist in the same context that sexist or racist is used to identify one who believes in or practices sexism or racism. A specialist is one who practices ‘speciesism’.

Society and culture are like religion and politics in that they are held to a high degree of importance and that they are embedded so early and so often one never really chooses their religious or political ideals. So the actual process of "choosing" between religious and political ideals is essentially no different than the process of choosing an ice cream flavor. With the exception of a food allergy, there’s often very little objective reason to like chocolate over strawberry, or strawberry over vanilla. And in all the arguments about which is the best flavor, it's easy to ignore the fact that some people simply don’t care for ice cream, and some are lactose intolerant so they can't even eat ice cream at all if they wanted to.
But perhaps we can't compare ice cream to religion and politics because those are such "important and serious matters". And maybe that's true, but the point is that the process of choosing religious and political beliefs is most often dictated not by objective reasoning or careful consideration, but by upbringing, conditioning, and basically what one finds most appealing. No person is immune from this, from choosing things based on their upbringing, conditioning, or what appeals to them, from their society’s propaganda and narratives (not even the writers of this work).
Every person is more readily susceptible to the messages seen and heard throughout their upbringing, to the messages they find appealing, and to the messages aligned with their particular beliefs. Also, every person is subject to the continuous, constant, never ending cultural conditioning of their society. Not a single society in the history of forever, is excluded from conditioning their members to certain beliefs and ways of being. Even without a deliberate program or education, this conditioning happens by default of the groups existence. This conditioning comes at all times, from every angle, and every direction. From friends, family, and associates. From radio, TV, and the internet. From campfires, rituals, and celebrations. From art, music, and literature. From sculpture, architecture, and even the layout of a city, town, or village.
Humans are all products of an environment, and that environment conditions their environ+mental. It constantly and continuously conditions their environ+mental. In turn this environ+mental is a constant and continuous lens or filter through which we see and interpret an environment. We are products of an environment and an environ+mental.
And as a product of an environment, your very own environ+mental, your mind, quietly replays messages, in the background, at all times, on an infinite loop. UNLESS something happens to disrupt this loop. We’re turning up the volume so you can hear it. We're highlighting the messages so you can distinguish it clearly. We're bringing it to the foreground so you can see it. We're adjusting the lenses so you can see it clearly. We're breaking up the loop so you can sense it. We're stopping the loop so you can see and sense something different, and perhaps CHOOSE another path.
It's said that a mind stretched to a new idea never goes back to its original dimensions. If you are perfectly content with your life as it is now then there's still time to stop. It's not too late for you to turn back. This is your second warning!Questions and questioning lead to answers. The answers you find to may not be pleasant. This process may shatter many of your current ideas and ideals. It may shatter many of your current illusions. It may shatter your current identity, everything you thought you were. We do not promise warm fuzzy feelings, goody goody gum drops, and pots of golden rainbows. As this process progresses you may experience increasing feelings of alienation. For that reason this is for those already discontent, disillusioned, and divergent from the ways, offerings, and aims of this modern society as it has manifested. This is not for anyone content, comfortable, and compliant or aiming to be content, comfortable, and complacent with modern society.
There is a difference between addressing sickness and addressing symptoms. Address symptoms and they return. Address the agent and all symptoms are effectively mitigated. We believe up until this point many have addressed symptoms and that's why the same issues or symptoms return. We're attempting to find the agent, the cause, the core root of society and uproot it.
If we succeed, then this process may shatter many of your current ideas and ideals. It may shatter many of your current illusions. It may shatter your current identity, everything you thought you were. We do not promise warm fuzzy feelings, goody goody gum drops, and pots of golden rainbows. As this process progresses you may experience increasing feelings of alienation. THIS IS YOUR FINAL WARNING!
These questions and their possible answers are only a beginning. Integrating those answers into your way of being, into an alternate way of living is a place of completion. Until you reach that place of completion you will exist in a state of limbo. However, if you persevere another future, another society, another us exists. A way of re+generation instead of self-destruction, a path of re+creation rather than rat races, a life of substance instead of empty slow death.
We've heard it said, a mind stretched to a new idea never goes back to its original dimensions. After this point the journey forward will be difficult and turning back will be impossible.
