Melissa: 我在与家人相处时,发现他们的观点会随着社会潮流的变化而改变,这让我对 Alan Watt 提出的『在行尸走肉中感到陌生,通过渐进主义适应变化』的观点有了更深的理解。我尝试与家人沟通我所看到的现实,但他们不愿倾听。Alan Watt 的观点,与其试图改变家人对现实的看法,不如专注于改变自身,与那些不愿倾听你的人保持距离,这让我感触颇深。 我尝试通过观看电影《密室》(Conclave)来理解教廷的权力斗争,并与家人讨论。这引发了激烈的争论,因为他们分别站在自由派和保守派的立场上。我最终通过展示 Alan Watt 的著作《拨开迷雾》(Cutting Through the Matrix),提醒他们关注更宏观的视角,而非简单的左右翼对立。 我意识到,人们的观点往往是社会灌输的结果,而非独立思考的结果。在时代更迭之际,人们会被灌输各种相互对立的观点,从而被操纵和分裂。我们应该超越简单的左右翼、保守派与自由派等二元对立的思维模式,去理解一个长期存在的、渐进式发展的议程。 Alan Watt: 人类社会一直被少数精英所操纵,他们通过对人性的长期研究,利用各种手段,包括戏剧、艺术、宗教、时尚等,来控制和操纵民众。他们会根据不同人群的特点,创造或调整宗教信仰,以更好地控制他们。媒体很少向公众提供真相,而是利用各种手段来操纵他们。 社会正处于奥威尔式的强力统治和赫胥黎式的温和控制之间的过渡阶段,这个过渡是预先计划好的。赫胥黎和奥威尔都预见到了未来社会受控的局面,并且对这种局面持支持态度。人们容易认同群体,并且不喜欢听到坏消息。 天主教内部的性侵丑闻反映了其内部腐败的程度,教皇试图通过模糊善恶的界限来掩盖这些丑闻。教会内部长期存在的腐败文化是性侵丑闻的根本原因,这种文化在其他机构中也普遍存在。文化是可以被塑造和改变的,教皇的行为以及对性侵丑闻的回应,都反映了这种文化塑造的过程。 统治者运用科学技术和方法来控制人们的行为,并通过教育系统灌输政治正确性。文化革命影响了东西方社会,明星的塑造并非自然而然,背后有操纵者在运作。
