"Hey you, don\'t help them to bury the light, don\'t give in without a fight." -- Pink Floyd   

It seems that the world, or reality, that we are living in has become like a photographic negative. Often times those things that appear light are really darkness in disguise, and vice/versa. I have come to believe based on years of study and observation that this is usually due to intentional deception and social engineering being practiced by the ruling elite of the world. It is not the purpose of this post to attempt to document these things. The available information out there documenting the hidden hands that run the planet is voluminous, and very well documented by numerous sources. By the grace of God we still have access to the internet which provides you with practically the entirety of the collective knowledge of the species. Granted, there is also a lot of disinfo and nonsense on line as well, but if you really desire truth and reality, your discernment and inner voice will guide you to the good sources. A few recommendations I\'ll throw out are infowars.com, rense.com, cuttingthroughthematrix.com and freedomsphoenix.com for websites, and for authors try Jim Marrs or Peter Levenda for starters, also look up TrineDay publishing for others. And for some good "Jungian" insight into our troubled mass psyche, look up Paul Levy\'s awakeninthedream.com.   

The purpose of this post is to share my perspective on a certain aspect of the collective mind in our society, what we still refer to as the USA as of 2009. That collective mind is possessed by a sort of childish, pop-culture pseudo psychology/spirituality that seems to permeate the country these days, including the churches and all the rest of our crumbling, corrupt, corporatized institutions. I will just call this collective state of mind "Americanism" for lack of a better term. There was a time when that term would have represented the free-thinking, independent love of true liberty embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, but those days are long gone, and the simplest definition I can give to what Americanism now stands for is malignant narcissism.   

The specific aspect of this modern Americanism that I wish to comment on is what seems to be a very adolescent understanding of positive vs negative. As the middle class enters the final stages of having its life blood wrung out of it by the parasitical pirates who are the ruling globalist financial elite that run the country, the average willfully ignorant citizen still refuses to wake up and smell reality. We the people vastly outnumber the ruling elites, and if we could ever wake up in sufficient numbers to reach a critical mass we could restore the free republic for which the flag once stood. But instead of being spurred by the horror of the bizarre Orwellian matrix which is closing in around us, to seek out the true causes of our problems, most of us sink deeper into a level of denial that has now become pathological. This denial has been cultivated for so long that it has created a fragile, childish group mind that most Americans are plugged into. Most who are infected with this mental illness these days require a constant diet of the inane, meaningless fake reality generated by the corporate establishment media. The mass mind-control device known as television has lobotomized most of society.   

Once you are truly through the looking glass and as far down the rabbit hole as we have descended, you find yourself in that photo-negative house of smoke and mirrors. There are many manifestations of this, one of which is an obsessive attempt to always be "positive". On the surface this sounds good and reasonable, after all, who would advocate being "negative" as having any virtue? The problem of course is the shallow, childish view of what is positive and what is negative. In essence, we\'ve come to view anything that makes us feel good as being positive and anything that disturbs our comfort zone of denial as being negative. No problem can be solved until you first accurately identify the true nature of the problem and its causes, but exposing and identifying the depth of the corruption and evil which has metastasized throughout our corporate, governmental, scientific, medical, academic, religious and journalistic institutions is seen as being "negative".   

Unless we collectively throw off this willful ignorance and criminal denial, and begin to embrace the fervent and vigilant seeking of truth and justice as something POSITIVE, we will soon lose all that remains of our liberty and peace and prosperity. Unless we simply GROW UP and seek true knowledge, understanding and wisdom, and abandon the childish fear that has paralyzed us from uprooting the corruption and evil that has brought us to the brink of destruction, there will be no hope.   

The time is now very, very short.......will you embrace reality, face the shadow and stand with the POSITIVE of liberty, or will you surrender to the comfort of illusion, deny the shadow and side with the negative of tyranny?
