Watch out for hate-driven deceits
Acknowledging My Own Racism in the Era of Trump
My comment:
Self-hate, denied fears and denied denials manifest in all sorts of reflections.
That then reinforce themselves as a triggered 'identity'.
Our true identity is not really manufactured but arises within a relational experience.
But the masking persona asserts an identity made upon someone else's loss or in projection of lack or invalidity onto the Other. A loveless sense of such a self uses hate and fear objects to justify and validate itself - as if to protect and thus 'love' itself.
It also uses the hate and fear of owning up to hate and fear feelings and acts as a basis to make narratives of collective reinforcement for collective 'identity'.
If a description of a mechanism becomes a HATE term for personal agenda - such as 'racist' - then such an invested persona diverts and blocks further curiosity or illumination of what is actually operating in place of a recognition and acceptance.
The investment in persona and personified 'reality' is the apportioning and validating of BLAME - by which to invalidate Other and hide a sense of self righteous in the judge.
Humanity has a deep self-hatred that inevitably projects to reflect a hateful sense of existence - and the layers of self that are made to mask and cover this hatred are defended as if our very self. But they operate divisively and towards a fragmented and segregative sense of self.
When we meet that which we hate or have masked feelings of hate toward - we are in touch with aspects of self that are beneath or in some sense upstream of the persona.
The attempt to eradicate or overcome hated or feared 'evil' in oneself is the very means to fix it and keep it as the unconscious lens through which to seek a PERSONAL validation.
Jesus warned against this - but once self righteous blame is invited in and used as 'power' - a reversal operates in consciousness that defends itself against exposure - in your name.

Fear-ism - and the father of the lie
An editorial on the Daily Bell:
What Exactly is Racism?
By Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.
Fear-ism operates a coercive and self-differentiating identity. It does so through any and every segregative identity.
Identities of fear-ism are ever shifting alliances and oppositions in which war is the basis for the protection and persistence of the "shadow power" of fear-ism.
The complexity of such disguise is such that it is impossible to establish and maintain communication long enough for the fear-ism to be exposed - as an act of will. For an act of will always embodies some aspect of shadow power - or unconscious hidden agenda - that then works against communication.
There is no ism for love, hence it is not within the radar of fear-mindedness and is thus deemed unreal, weak, inneffective and illusory. However, it operates beneath the radar in disguise that may seem to be enslaved and controlled, and harvested - not least because the denial of love is the only power source that fear-ism has - being an inversion of true creation within a collective mind-agreement.
The fearful identity is lacking true Identity - which only love can give and which love only gives. Guilting and invalidation is the conditioning by which one's natural being is demonized and a 'protector' mask-identity raised upon the 'death' of the true hearted communion within Life.
It is all very well to put everything of such nature in terms of what others, or society, or the human condition or God or any other notion of power - DID unto us, but such victim-assertion looks only OUT at the manifestations of the template of core beliefs of self definition that were chosen prior to 'entrancing' the human lifetime.
It is not true that we choose our lives - at the level of the masking or personality level of asserted identity. But even at that level, are choices being made that can be shown and seen to be working against our good while seeming to at first be for our good.
Thus a willingness for pause from reaction, in which a deeper or more honest and direct communication can occur, opens the way for a reintegrative movement of consciousness. For what seems fragmented and at war within itself - and thus reflected as our world-experience, is a very specific focus of choices operating within ONE mind to facilitate experiential learning FOR the desire to know oneself - which is moving in and as all that Is.
Because, we are suffering the results of choices - albeit many of which are invisibly below our current noticing - because our beliefs and self-definitions are unquestioned and perhaps heavily defended against question, there is the freedom to own or uncover such choices within our consciousness - where automatically and spontaneously is the innate capacity to choose anew - from a truly consciousness perspective - that 'fear-simulated' substitute no longer hides.
The father of the lie is the assertion of being attacked, wounded and offended, with NO correlation to one's own conscious thought, intent or act. The splitting into levels and facets of consciousness is the cost of being ignorant of one's own self-attack. But should anyone complain of a dissonance and discover it is but the result of their own posture - they would merely realign and be finished with it in a moment. Hence the projection of hate and evil away from the self onto the other, so as to persist out of true while seeming not to suffer the cost - at least for a time - until it all comes home.
Individual and collective uniqueness can serve the recognition of the Infinite Creator in All - rather than the scapegoat of projected fear upon which to make a 'special self'. The opportunity to obey and reactively persist in fear-ism, is the opportunity to notice and relinquish it in willingness to re-member love's presence and be re-minded within consciousness. Suppression of the symptoms under guilt and fear is the device by which error is protected from correction.
Correction or realignment to one's core joy, is the absense of coercion and cannot be effected BY coercion. The means and the end are one, so whatever one notices as one's means - will only fruit a like goal. There is no loveless path to love excepting to thoroughly exhaust oneself of any capacity to tolerate lovelessness of self.
Shadow power or manipulating deceit false-flags its own attack to maintain a self-special identity from which to draw willing sacrificial obeisance. This device is pervasive to human consciousness up to Friday, June 26, 2015 - as we each and together define, accept, think, perceive, act and experience ourself to be. But that is all predicated on choices - no matter how well hidden are such choices by falsely framed narratives.
Do we identify in our story or our presence? Are we aware of our true presence? Are we aware of how everyone and everything are perceived through an acceptance of our true presence?
"This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man."

anti-racist fascist?
What exactly is racism? - an article in the Daily Bell that looks at the use of 'racism' as a coercive device of the State - although I don't give power to the State but to the ideas that it embodies.
My comment:
Communication is the direction of Reintegration. The mentality that would coercively assert 'right and wrong' upon the minds of others can only function as a disruptor of communication, because it is the refusal to look and listen within the heart.
My comment:
Whenever the identity of a 'good' (equality) can be defined over and against an identity 'evil' (subjugation of others on the basis of race (or any other qualifying filter of definition), a segregative mentality is invoked and engaged in the clothing of self-righteousness as self-justified and necessary to effect.
For such mentality - the 'enemy' may change and shift in shape constantly so as not to reveal the essential device or deception by which such self-illusion is maintained.
The compulsive dictate of a segregative consciousness is firstly and above all else; NOT to look within.
'Divide and rule' works firstly as an attack in the integrity of one's own consciousness and then patterns all else to its lens or distortion.
"Love thine enemy' is the reversal of the attack upon Consciousness.
For the mentality of fear, guilt and division HAS usurped the recognition of your very consciousness AS Consciousness Itself, and personalizes the self hating, self rejecting, self judging 'world' - as the veil or cover over its own consciousness responsibility - by which it feels temporarily protected.
Every situation and circumstance is a unique Life Expression - in and of and as - Consciousness. The mind that would 'step outside' so as to exert coercion or "lord it over" Life is the 'enemy of the world', or indeed the thinking of 'the world'.
The exposure of such mentality is necessary to owning that which we tried to deny and project onto others. Judging ourselves guilty or unworthy for having such thinking and feelings is the way to ensure that it is never exposed except as a fuel for an endless war ... on consciousness. Or more more accurately upon your own conscious awareness of Who And What You Are.
If you choose not to accept your reality as it is, then you will demand that it be different than it is, and your mind will supply the device by which your will is done - at least within your own private sense of experience. Free will is not a capacity of independence, so much as an inviolate quality of Being. You/one is free to accept your/one's brother or sister as they are, because of the will to define and judge them as they are not. When we mutually agree to such definitions, we 'create' an experience of a world that consciousness is subjugated to - whilst attempting to prevail over. This is 'materialism' or separation from God, Consciousness, All That Is. How the evils are distributed so as to validate the 'chosen' or special ones is the only game in town for materialism. Power corrupts - whoever happens to get a turn in the role. Corruption is the adulteration of truth with fantasy - with ideas and wishes that are given priority over true communication and become confused with truth thereby.

speech crime (BBC News)
When is offence a matter of ego, or hurt feelings - and when is it offensive to the health and wellbeing of society as a whole?
This ought to be something that the relevant authorities concerned - starting with those involved in dispute, their employers, and if all else fails, a judge - ought to be easily able to discern.
Why not? Because a self righteous anti racist culture is setting the agenda. To fall foul of such a culture is to be vilified.
'Otherism' or scapegoatism - UNDER ANY guise or pretext - is undermining of truth - upon which we all utterly depend for sanity and integrity. It accords a negative value or lack of worth to another living soul because of taking offense.
When the offense issues from an emotional outburst arising from a heated exchange, an apology should be sought and accepted if offered - and made a basis of resumed relations. For such offence is the reaction of the hurt, hurting back - and this is hardly the act or intention of someone in their right mind.
To shift social attitudes so as to draw a line that says it is not ok to denigrate others in specific ways that before had been largely socially acceptable - is a step forward. But we cannot then attempt to use the force and the rule of law for controlling speech without nurturing the very conditions that seed hatred.
Externally applied control is a very dangerous tool, for life does not work, or align creatively and constructively, by being controlled - no matter how much force applied - nor how subtle or ingenious our lawmaking.
We need to use proportionate force to uphold and protect ourselves as a society so as to have stability enough in which to learn and grow in our humanity. For education is the dance of relationship in which conditions of trust are established in which blocks to creativity and intelligence are passed beyond and a mutual sense of worth is shared.
Life insults us daily - it does not support our personal plans. We are often frustrated, limited or opposed by every kind of circumstance. Some seem petty and others are devastating to us.
There are times to make a stand and if need be, our Spirit is our treasure, for if we let others cause us to lose our Spirit, we lose all that we are.
Those who do not live in their Spirit are mean-minded and blind to the living soul in others - having only the letter of the law.
The realignment of our society with truth is the adjustment from which all else will follow. If racism - or anythingism - is kept in the dark, suppressed but not undone - then it festers unhealed and continues to control us not only in terms of racism - but in terms of anti racism.
To ‘open a debate’ or to communicate with a purpose of healing rather than of strategic advantage, it is necessary that the notion and nature of speech or thought crime be properly discerned.
When we attack ourselves through the proxy of a scapegoat, we may get some sense of a passing satisfaction, but no one can put their hatred upon another and have it actually out of their own mind thereby! This is truth. But not the whole truth. For hatred is born of hurt, and hurt is born of a fearful sense of self and life. This is where healing can be accepted and conflict undone.
It is the currency of our notions of self and world that we trade as if real, that sets humanity up for a humiliating but ultimately humbling awakening.
To be vigilant for signs of personal attack so as to claim abuse is to feed the monster that sucks dry our Spirit. To attack attackers is surely self defeating.
Yes, we do need to constrain the self (or other) harming as part of a greater process - but that process must arise or extend from a true measure of love and wisdom - or else its just a recycling of history with all the inherent misery and woe wrapped up in a rebranded presentation.
Thanks for your attention
