The systems which humanity depends upon within our modern society, are the same systems which control us. We’ve given our power away, which is exactly what the systems were designed to do…
The first division (divide and conquer)
History
History is fiction, illusion written by the winners, with no representation from the other side. A justification marketed to the public as truth, making heroes of villains and villains of the victims. If you wish to get closer to truth, follow the artists, the poets, the song-writers and story tellers, the Shamans and Mystics…, these are the souls plugged into society, not the overlords pulling the strings of deception, calculating fear and control to mold the world into their self-entitled reality.
“History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it…” Winston Churchill “History is a set of lies, agreed upon.” Napoleon Bonaparte
“History is more or less bunk.” Henry Ford
Austin O'Malley: "History is a vast dust-heap of falsehood with a few pennies of truth scattered through it"
Science
Science is now catching up to metaphysics.
"The more I study physics, the more I am drawn to metaphysics." – Albert Einstein
Wernher von Braun: "Everything science has taught me, and continues to teach me, strengthens my belief in the continuity of our spiritual existence after death. Nothing disappears without a trace".
Modern Physics and Ancient Wisdom: Erwin Schrödinger noted that the dynamic unity and interconnectedness of reality have been known for three thousand years and are being "confirmed by modern physics".
Politics
Anyone who wishes power should not be allowed anywhere near it…
We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution, one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me. George Orwell, 1984.
Power is the ability to get things done, to mobilize resources, to get and use whatever it is that a person needs for the goals he or she is attempting to meet. In this way, a monopoly on power means that only very few have this capacity, and they prevent the majority of others from being able to act effectively. Thus, the total amount of power, and total system effectiveness, is restricted, even though some people seem to have a great deal of it. However, when more people are empowered, that is, allowed to have control over the conditions that make their actions possible, then more is accomplished, more gets done. Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Men and Women of the Corporation.
“The major problem, one of the major problems, for there are several, one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it, or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”
– Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
Who should we elect? None of the above…

Military and police
To serve and protect
"The police were not created to protect and serve the population... They were created to protect the new form of wage-labor capitalism... from the threat posed by that system's offspring, the working class." – Howard Zinn
Historian and Associate Professor of History Sam Mitrani suggests that the police were created by the ruling class to control working-class and poor people, a role they have continued to play. "When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die." – Jean-Paul Sartre (often attributed to).
The Danger of Militarization: "There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people." – Commander William Adama (fictional, Battlestar Galactica).
Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, Ram Dass, Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, The Dalai Lama… decided to build a community. As each were centered in their Heart, there was no need for police, military or money. They simply helped one another out of love, compassion and the knowing that we are all one…
Economy
A system of control the public has been brainwashed into believing is needed. It serves separateness.
Separateness = Cancer
Money and societal/government control
Notable figures have commented on the influence of money on governments and society. Mayer Amschel Rothschild is quoted as saying, "Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws". Napoleon Bonaparte observed that when a government relies on bankers for money, the bankers hold the power. Thomas Jefferson expressed concern that banking institutions posed a greater threat to liberty than standing armies. Bertrand Russell stated that power ultimately rests with those who control finance. A quote attributed to Abraham Lincoln suggests that financial powers can exploit nations and consolidate wealth, leading to the destruction of a republic. Leo Tolstoy viewed money as a modern form of impersonal slavery.
“The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or be so dependent upon its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system, will bear its burdens without complaint, and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests.” The Rothschild brothers of London writing to associates in New York, 1863.
“It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and money system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.” Henry Ford, founder of the Ford Motor Company.
