Save yourself, misled
There will always be those that would challenge you for being different, because we are shifting. If we weren't moving (physically, mentally, spiritually...) we would not be alive. Life fractally affects diversification to ensure continuation and invention, which also means at least some number would always be moving in opposite directions. We seem to be shifting pretty fast now, which returns even more friction than the usual bounce of things.
We shouldn't let stand what we feel is wrong, but we have in our clearly incomplete process of collectively maturing, been stuck with the idea of trying to prevent anything bad from ever happening again. That is where you start to get all these non-functioning pyramidal control structures, that have turned bloated with corruption, as they have centralised and accumulated the unwanted type of creatures that are attracted to power because they feel they cannot attain anything honestly. In a seemingly desperate but failing attempt to stay relevant in an increasingly informed world, what they sell now includes a thousand different causes to get all rah rah about from the comfort of your own home. If women have a problem with the system, blame the men. If you're black, blame the whites, or the illegal immigrants, Chinese or Arabs if you're white. Never the detached top of the pyramid with the eye everyone is afraid to look into, which itself has a request, begging "blame the sheeple". Never yourself for falling for it.
“There Are Times…”
"There are times, however, and this is one of them, when even being right feels wrong. What do you say, for instance, about a generation that has been taught that rain is poison and sex is death? If making love might be fatal and if a cool spring breeze on any summer afternoon can turn a crystal blue lake into a puddle of black poison right in front of your eyes, there is not much left except TV and relentless masturbation. It's a strange world. Some people get rich and others eat shit and die. Who knows? If there is in fact, a heaven and a hell, all we know for sure is that hell will be a viciously overcrowded version of Phoenix — a clean well lighted place full of sunshine and bromides and fast cars where almost everybody seems vaguely happy, except those who know in their hearts what is missing... And being driven slowly and quietly into the kind of terminal craziness that comes with finally understanding that the one thing you want is not there. Missing. Back-ordered. No tengo. Vaya con dios. Grow up! Small is better. Take what you can get...”- Hunter S. Thompson

It's one of the biggest things in the entire solar system. A dark filament of magnetism measuring more than 800,000 km from end to end is sprawled diagonally across the face of the sun. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory took an ultraviolet picture of the structure during the late hours of Nov. 17th

How it works
So the vatican wants a global central bank, their unimaginably absurd demand attempting to ride on the back of the Occupy movement. This movement, as far as I can gather, is made up of mostly people in their early twenties, the igniting complaint being that after getting duped into taking college loans, all the prosperity had run out by the time the attempted brainwashing was over. Naturally I'm all for breaking up the big banks and demolishing the incestuous link between government and large corporations, but they are only demanding jobs, in my opinion, because they've never had one.
How it works is that we generally have to spend a third of our lives sleeping, so that time is spoken for. On top of that, we have no real choice but to spend another third or more of our matured lives at jobs, where we earn a fixed amount of money, feverishly working to increase profits we won't see a cent of until inflation starts impacting on our ability to work. That leaves less than a third of all our lives to actually, you know, live. Except, that third comes after the money pyramid worshipping third, so we're all tired as hell, and the last bit is spent mostly resting and "relaxing", so that we can go to sleep and do it all again tomorrow.
That leaves almost no energy for anything that's really important, like thinking about what we're actually doing, and doing anything other than what you get paid to do. So it happened that we left all the control of almost all the most important aspects of our lives up to someone else. Politics and the issuing of currency is boring as hell, we can all agree, but we need to stop denying that it is ruling all our lives and the way we live it. If not our personal lives, that is certainly affected by our communities which still allow all their personal lives to be guided by it.
The real sick part comes in with the fact that we have allowed this crucial lever of control to be taken over by people we do not know. We don't know these people. We know what their PR departments want us to hear, and in some cases, we're allowed to know what their other enemies would like us to hear, but that's it. When it comes down to it, none of us can interact with these so-called leaders in a setting that is not a public relations event.
Future historians will regard this entire little mess we've allowed to happen as a study in mass insanity. We can accomplish nothing more than our animal impulses without community, and leaving some part of your life up to someone else requires trust. Were we are now, we gave away that trust to people we have never interacted with, and so have no real idea whether they are deserving of that trust. Centralised systems of anything do not work, because after it reaches a certain size, it has to arrange itself in a fashion of top-down control. It's just physics that positions of power attract people who cannot attain anything honestly. No community will be free of these people until enough of us figure out that people and communities can interact to achieve a common goal, but that no station of power, control or importance should ever be allowed outside the reach of the axe and the tree stump.
