342 Mirror Madness

“In his delusive attachment to himself, man generates his madness like a mirage. The symbol of madness will henceforth be that mirror which, without reflecting anything real, will secretly offer the man who observes himself in it the dream of his own presumption. Madness deals not so much with truth and the world as with man and whatever truth about himself he is able to perceive.”

Foucault, Michel. Madness And Civilization. United States of America, 27.

319 Vision from George Orwell

Men in the mass were frail cowardly creatures who could not endure liberty or face the truth, and most be ruled over and systematically deceived by others who were stronger than themselves.
The coice for mankind lay between freedom and happiness and for the great bulk of mankind, happiness is better.

Orwell, George. 1984. 1949. 109. Print.

311 Get Rich Scheme!

It’s the easiest way get rich quickly, for real!
You don’t have to be super smart or to have tons of money in the first place, just gather some dumb few flock first and be sure to be appeared as a holy guy.
Stick to the mainstream religion concept and you’ll be on your way to produce some money.

So yes, let’s talk about the money!
After you have your loyal flocks, start taxing them in the name of the Holy God.
5%, 10% or more who would give a fuck, it’s the God’s will and they are just bunch of fearful sheep. The credit will go to the God, even if it’s only for your own wealth and for the propaganda sake (to get more flocks and more money of course).
Plus by now you are a tax-free institution, there is no way you’ll go bankrupt. Just make sure you already had and known the insurance which is the bible, teach them some irrational nonsense and give them some shitty gay advice from it and you’ll be set for your life and retirement, securely.

308 Chess Analogy

[image: self]

In the game of chess, the color doesn’t mean its own victory always depends on it. Nor it represent the meaning of the color itself, the white doesn’t represent the good & the holy side as well as the black doesn’t represent the bad & the evil side. Should an individual or collective group judged by its color? There is no meaning lies on their color, only the winner and the way they struggle will represent the better side. The war of the white and the black is a fighting for reason, the fighting inside the individual itself or individual against the collective, the strugle for control. There is no dogma that can control morality fairly, as there is no black or white, each individual and collective always has both of the color, as the nature intended, moral is all about proven rationality.

298 Indonesian Media of Stupidity

[english]
It’s a propaganda of fake, it’s an elimination of extentionalism, it’s an institution of mass stupidity that demanded to be exsist by its own people, ironically. The popular medias focus on pop-culture and religion,which is affecting directly on the elimination of self-extentionalism and rational intelectualism. Generally it creates a society with a fruitless opinion without any factual opinion, a hedonist society without consious mind, which its fate would be eaten alive by the fundamentalist group, the unhealthy capitalist and the corrupt goverment.
The situation of this society, who is lack on knowledge and intelectual facts, is still far away from the idealistic progressive movement if there is no consiousness inside each individual to re-open its insight critically and to demand for the radical change in our media.

Please liberate Indonesia first from this empty media clench and change this media to be a propaganda tool of pacifist social revolution as the answer to the real issues. Not the other way around, as a contributor of fact divertion with some easy, practical, hedonistic methods.

[indonesian]
Sebuah propaganda penipuan, sebuah cara pengeliminasian ekstensialitas diri, sebuah institusi pembodohan masal yang ironisnya terus-terusan di-demand untuk tetap eksis oleh masyarakatnya sendiri. Fokus media ini bertujuan untuk kepentingan popular culture dan agama, kedua fokus yang berefek langsung dalam penyingkiran ekstensialitas diri dan intelektualitas rasional, menghasilkan masyarakat irational yang beropini kosong tanpa opini fakta, masyarakat hedonis tanpa kesadaran.
Secara generalisasi efek dari media ini melahirkan dan menguatkan kaum-kaum irational yang nasibnya hanya untuk dimakan hidup-hidup oleh propaganda kaum-kaum fundamental, oknum-oknum kapitalis yang tak sehat dan pemerintah yang korup.
Situasi masyarakat yang kurang wawasan dan fakta-fakta intelektual ini masih jauh dari idealisme progresif jika tidak adanya kesadaran sendiri dari setiap individu untuk membuka kembali wawasan secara kritis dan meminta untuk adanya perubahan yang radikal dalam media kita.

Selamatkanlah Indonesia dulu dari genggaman media yg kosong ini dan rubahlah media ini menjadi instrumen propaganda revolusi sosial yang pasifis sebagai penjawab isu-isu yang nyata. Bukan sebaliknya, pengalih kenyataan dengan metode hedonis belaka dan jawaban-jawaban yang praktis.

278 Coffee Shack

[image: self]

It was in the middle of nowhere, hidden by the high mountains and inside the simplicity of life. I was reading George Orwell’s Animal Farm and enjoying my cup of cofee, a cheap one, generic type of coffee you can find from any market. It wasn’t grinded with coffee maker and blended with foam, there was no such goddamn thing here. Just an already grinded coffee packaged inside plastic mixed instantly with hot water. The ordinary coffee enjoyed by the prolet, nothing fancy about it, but I feel more human each time I sipped it, since no one rich around to talk about how expensive their freakin car was or how inferior this coffee was and another reasons how they should never go to this lousy place in the future. Yes, just move to Starbucks, you snob!

But they never set their foot here to get the coffee, there is nothing to brag about here, the nothingness is the simplicity I enjoyed here. There is nothing bad of being enough.
