Danger, Will Robinson! WaySeer Propaganda!

Talk about being hit over the head with a hammer, this man and his blunt instrument of a marketing tool; music - if you can reduce music to this level which he does by his insistent droning on as if this is hip, imagery- I wonder how many people alive would want to be linked to this money making venture, and information geared to make people, who are probably misunderstood by many, can now be a revolutionary and you also might just be part of an exclusive club of 10% of the population.
Is this a way of the Psychopaths increasing their percentage from 6% - 10%.

His credentials founder and CEO of a multimillion dollar technology and media company, he also worked for Microsoft Research isn't this information enough to make you wander what this guy is up to.

This might be a bit leftfield but what comes to mind is something along the lines of Laurel Canyon and how COINTELPOL finds it way to corrupt and put people off track.
Sorry if this a bit of a rant but when people like Garret Loporto use information like "The Way" it makes me feel its been purposely used as a tool for disinformation.

Their minds simply resonate with The Way. When The Way is present, so are they.

Comment:
He is referring to Instinct but he is describing Emotions. Instinct is the means by which our subconscious selves communicate to our conscious selves, and it is indeed very powerful. Emotions, however, can fool you. Emotions like those being evoked by the music in this video and his rhythmic voice, (which he practiced beforehand, no doubt after his script went through many drafts with a consultation editorial staff who are working for profit). Emotions and powerful internal drives are how your automatic behaviors, your sense of hunger and fear and sexual awareness pull you along. They are an instinct of an automatic sort. They are not wrong necessarily, we need them, and when listened to and mitigated through the use of our prefrontal cortexes to decide when it is appropriate and healthy to act upon them, they serve us well. But they are not Real instincts of the kind he is trying to make you believe they are. Real instincts which speak from the soul cannot be heard through the clutter of emotional noise unless you work to recognize which are automatic and which are not. Do you think an alcoholic or an addict are capable of performing this work to get in touch with REAL spirit?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me:
Or, he's referring to Intuition. And yes, emotions can fool you, even kill you.

But, emotions are the means by which we propel ourselves, provided that you aren't drowning in them---much like surfing, no? They aren't just about being thrown around.

Once you've got enough good information to work with and enough discipline, emotional energy is also what we use to drive art and expression. It's not a detriment.

Sensitives and artistic prone folks aren't always aware of that and thus there's the high incidence of them trying to self medicate (though detoxing and proper nutrition is what's actually called for). But underneath all that, their intuition, or perhaps it is instinct, tell them that there's more there---otherwise many probably would never attempt to express, in the first place.

But, where this Wayseer dude goes wrong throughout, is he's playing on those very over-sensitivities with his media approach. He's purposefully got the 'hypnotica' technologies on full blast. Whether that's because he's trying to use the same tech that the mainstream media vacuum uses, for the good of pulling people out of the hypnosis, or he's just promoting another distraction and is acting as an agent of no-good, it's still manipulation---and therefore wrong, simple and clear---I believe.
 
Just wanted to add that propaganda is propaganda. This multimedia driven propaganda is no different from that shoved down viewers unconsciousness in advertising between football breaks, or on the 'news' with all the blinking and flowing images and fast heart-beating percussion in the background, to stir up enough emotional turmoil that their point (dyspoint) drives home. There is no good propaganda. Dis-truth, is dis-truth. And the use of high technologies (audio, visual, frequencies...psychological) to drive dis-truths is unethical and much the same as drugging people to get your point across.
 
Beautiful man with a well audible Voice of an Angel presenting his Anti-Depressant musically energizing Video to everyone with a message to Reinvent Yourself!

Too bad this wasn't a quiz. Reading the posts i knew beforehand this was deemed negative material. As a movie fan
and by the Work irreparably wrecked dreamer the following was apparent:

- nothing was felt, no feeling was aroused, apart from mild disgust
- annoyingly repeating bad music
- piercing tinny vocals of His Excellency
- vanity advertisement
- an already dead Mr. LoPorto his screams echoing in the Abyss of Hell where he is falling since some time
- empty movie parts without message, except: Follow Me into Your Own Destruction!
- soulless video content
- no sign of deep real emotions
- advertising the energetic New type of Youth, who i see dashing after the Mr. Loporto types
and falling after him into the Abysmal Pit of Oblivion

:nuts: :barf:
 
Here are my suggestions on Woodsman's commentary. I'm thinking it might also be a good idea to make our OWN version of this video, expanding on Laura's post here: http://cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php?topic=22489.msg241748#msg241748

For this one, though, I think there should be an introduction to set the stage, something like:

Garret LoPorto's Wayseers Manifesto portrays itself as a rallying call to all the dis-empowered and disaffected of our world. It appeals to all those who have suffered in a culture that defines what is "good" and "normal", excluding all those who see that something is terribly wrong with this picture. But is the Wayseers Manifesto all it appears to be? The devil is in the details. It appears that this video was created by the very psychopaths pretending to speak to the dis-empowered but who are in truth slick venture capitalists trying to profit from teenage angst. And worse. . . Let's see how they do it. . .

Woodsman said:
ATTENTION: All you rule-breakers, you misfits and troublemakers, all you free spirits and pioneers, all you visionaries and non-conformists:

Rule-breakers, misfits and troublemakers is a pretty vague grouping. Hitler was a rule-breaker, misfit and troublemaker. So was Gandhi. Great men and women of conscience can surely be called free spirits, visionaries, and non-comformists. But so can psychopaths. If you can see the difference, that means you're using your prefrontal cortex. Without it, how would you tell the difference between an impulsive, sensation-seeking, egocentric psychopath who refuses to conform to human life, and a true social critic who refuses to conform to the edicts of those very psychopaths in control?

Everything that the establishment has told you is wrong with you is actually what's right with you.
Well now. . . Actually, establishment is a collective effort. It's all of us. It's people working together. That isn't bad. What's bad are the psychopaths who have corrupted our community, made it toxic, bends it towards war and insanity and the enslavement of everybody, kids and adults alike. This video was created by those very psychopaths pretending to speak to the dis-empowered but who are in truth slick Venture capitalists trying to profit from teen angst. And worse. . . Let's see how they do it. . .

Well now. . . The question is, which "establishment"? The psychopathic establishment that fosters war, impulsiveness, dog-eat-dog capitalism, and social anomie? Or the collective effort of people working together - all of us - who want to see each other happy? That isn't bad. What's bad are the psychopaths who have corrupted our community, made it toxic, bending it towards war and insanity and the enslavement of everybody, kids and adults alike.

You see things others don’t. You are hardwired to change the world. Unlike nine out of ten people, your mind is irrepressible, and this threatens authority. You were born to be a revolutionary.

Psychopaths are hardwired to change the world. Just look at the Nazis, the Soviets, and the Neocons. Unlike nine out of ten people, their minds are irrepressible and threaten the moral authority of decent humanity. They are born revolutionaries.

You can’t stand rules because in your heart you know there’s a better way.

If you are being influenced by the stirring music and masculine energy of the speaker and the message that you are *special*, then guess what? You are in fact MORE "repressible" and suggestible than other people. More easily controlled. Why? Because such strong, stirring emotions overwhelm the thinking parts of your mind. And with your guards now down, you are open to doing what you are told by the person making you feel that way, even if those things are incredibly stupid. "You are special! (Give me your money.) You are a revolutionary! (Kill for me. Follow me. Be my slave.)" This is one of the ways the psychopath manipulates people.

This is good, I'd just add this to the end: Psychopaths can't stand the rules created by non-psychopaths. Non-psychopaths can't stand the rules created by psychopaths. You need your prefrontal cortex to tell the difference.

You have strengths dangerous to the establishment, and it wants them eliminated, So your whole life you’ve been told your strengths were weaknesses - Now I’m telling you otherwise.

Your impulsivity is a gift. Impulses are your key to the miraculous.

Your distractibility is an artifact of your inspired creativity.
No. Your impulsivity and distractibility are the direct result of over-exposure to a toxic environment; toxic foods, toxic media, electromagnetic pollution, toxic buildings, toxic education, toxic medications. The world is filled with garbage and it prevents our minds from working properly. But this creep, instead of advising you how to recognize and cut out the poisons, is instead telling you to ignore that you are being poisoned and to pretend that the symptoms of toxicity are actually evidence that you are special and magical.

If we want people who may be taken in by this guy to listen, we'll want to appeal to their prefrontal cortex and not their inner mammal. So I'd save "creep" for the full expose of this guy and his agenda, but I could be wrong.

Your mood swings reflect the natural pulse of life. They give you unstoppable energy when you're high, deep soulful insight when you're low.

Been diagnosed with a "disorder"? That’s society’s latest way to deny its own illness by pointing the finger at you. Your addictive personality is just a symptom of your vast underused capacity for heroic, creative expression and spiritual connection. Your utter lack of repression, your wide eyed idealism, your unmitigated open mind [...]

Ah. Now here it gets more insidious. He's no longer talking about poisoned people. He's talking directly to other psychopaths. An "utter lack of repression" is a problem. Without the ability to choose against urges from the reptilian brain, a psychopath has no problem committing all manner of stupid, violent, depraved acts which the psychopath so loves. He is simply trying to trick the rest of us into thinking that this behavior is somehow special.

- didn’t anyone ever tell you?

These are the traits shared by the greatest pioneers and visionaries, innovators, revolutionaries, procrastinators and drama queens, activists on the social scene, space cadets, mavericks, philosophers, derelicts, business suits flying fighter jets, football stars and sex addicts, celebrities with ADD, alcoholics who seek novelty, first responders, prophets and saints, mystics and change agents.

Nonsense. Sex addicts, alcoholics and procrastinators are not in the same league as Ghandi and JFK and our other visionaries. Why? Because being a visionary takes WORK and focus. This is just a cheap way to trick people into thinking that their weaknesses are in fact strengths. He doesn't want you to work on yourself. After all, if you do, you might grow strong and self-aware enough to see through his lies.

CHORUS
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all affected, by The Way
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all attracted to the flame.

You know in your heart that there's a natural order, something more sovereign than any man-made rules or laws could ever express.

This natural order is called "The Way."

These are poetic words which are more dangerous than you might realize. Not just because they are nonsense designed to enflame your emotions and lead you to following a false prophet, but because he is referencing a REAL system of spiritualism called the "Fourth Way". --This is a means of confusing and distracting potential seekers of truth away from a system which actually works and which doesn't favor those who do not work to develop critical thinking.

Typo: enflame to inflame.

The Way is the eternal substrate of the cosmos. It guides the very current of time and space. The Way is known by some as The Will of God, Divine Providence, The Holy Spirit, the Implicate Order, the Tao, reverse entropy, life force, but for now we’ll simply call it 'The Way.' The Way is reflected in you as the source of your inspiration, the source of your passions, your wisdom, your enthusiasm, your intuition, your spiritual fire...love. The Way takes the chaos out of the Universe and breathes life into it, giving it divine order. The Way, when expressed by the mind, is genius; perceived through the eyes, is beauty; felt through the senses, is grace. When allowed into the heart...is love.

The universe contains aspects of all these things, and much more! But again, like trying to associate Ghandi with Charlie Sheen, simply telling us that grace and spiritual fire exist is not the same as actually offering them. And you certainly won't get there by pursuing emotional and chemical highs, turning off your thinking minds and embracing only the self-serving reptilian impulses of the psychopath. You might feel good and special while rampaging through the world chasing selfish whims, but you are choosing to be a monster, causing pain and suffering to those around you. And he calls this love? Does ignoring your effect on others sound like love to you?

Most people cannot sense The Way directly...but then there are the Wayseers, the keepers of the flame. Wayseers have an unexplainable knack for just knowing The Way. They sense it in their very being. They can’t tell you why or how they arrived at the right answer. They just know it in their core. They can’t show their work, so don’t ask. Their minds simply resonate with The Way. When The Way is present, so are they.

He is referring to Instinct but he is describing Emotions. Instinct is the means by which our subconscious selves communicate to our conscious selves, and it is indeed very powerful. Emotions, however, can fool you. Emotions like those being evoked by the music in this video and his rhythmic voice, (which he practiced beforehand, no doubt after his script went through many drafts with a consultation editorial staff who are working for profit). Emotions and powerful internal drives are how your automatic behaviors, your sense of hunger and fear and sexual awareness pull you along. They are an instinct of an automatic sort. They are not wrong necessarily, we need them, and when listened to and mitigated through the use of our prefrontal cortexes to decide when it is appropriate and healthy to act upon them, they serve us well. But they are not Real instincts of the kind he is trying to make you believe they are. Real instincts which speak from the soul cannot be heard through the clutter of emotional noise unless you work to recognize which are automatic and which are not. Do you think an alcoholic or an addict are capable of performing this work to get in touch with REAL spirit?

Typos: Ghandi to Gahdhi, cortexes to cortices.

While others are blind to it, and society begs you to ignore it, The Way stirs you inside. Neurological repression blocks most people’s awareness of The Way. Censoring all thoughts and impulses from the unconscious is their prefrontal cortex, the Gestapo of the brain.

He is deliberately mixing things up here. The prefrontal cortex does mitigate the signals coming from below. But not all of those signals are smart ones to follow. Some come from the reptilian brain, base fear and hunger, automatic motivations. Those are GOOD things to filter out. The prisons are full of psychopaths who act on those impulses, who murder and rape and destroy. The prefrontal cortex is our ticket to freedom from the jungle. To civilization.

Nothing which violates its socialized programming even gets through. But your mind is different. Your mind has been cracked wide open to The Way; by some miraculous genetic trait, some psychotropic chemical or maybe even by the will of your own soul.

And here we see the naked truth. The 'miraculous genetic trait' is that of the psychopath's brain failing to connect and work properly. A psychopath's brain is a much more simple mechanism, with much of the normal structure being ignored, [____________Insert explanation of brain workings here___________]

And here we see the naked truth. The 'miraculous genetic trait' is that of the psychopath's brain failing to connect and work properly. When the amygdala fails to respond to emotional cues, it cannot make those cues available to the prefrontal cortex. The mind acts solely on automatic whims and desires, failing to factor in the significance of other people as thinking, feeling beings. Other people become objects that only get in the way of impulsive, reckless and destructive behaviors. No, 90% of humans have the genetic capacity to understand the importance of other people, and the need to repress certain whims and desires. It is the minority who cause the problems, influencing the majority to think they are "special" while mixing up psychopathy with conscience. To break free from the psychopathic establishment means getting in touch with your prefrontal cortex and SEEing that uninhibited psychopathy is the root of repression.

Your brain’s reward pathways have been hijacked; dopamine employed to overthrow the fascist dictatorship of your prefrontal cortex. Now your brain is free of repression, your mind free of censorship, your awareness exposed to the turbulent seas of the unconscious - through this open doorway divine light shines into your consciousness, showing you The Way. This is what makes you a Wayseer.

He is glamorizing the psychopathic brain, giving those world-destroying monsters a special title, "Wayseer". Newsflash: the people who poisoned the Gulf of Mexico with millions of barrels of spilled oil and who even now evade responsibility resulting in tens of thousands of suffering people would have been "Wayseers" according to this logic. As would the bankers who have devastated the economy, leaving hundreds of thousands homeless and hungry. As would be those who push for war, resulting in the degradation and suffering of millions. That's who he is glamorizing.

, all the while appealing to those suffering on the other end of the stick.

Ninety percent of human civilization is populated with those whose brains are blocked to The Way. Their brains are hardwired to enforce the social programming indoctrinated since birth. Unlike you they cannot break out of this programming, because they have not yet experienced the necessary revolution of mind. These programmed people take social institutions and rules very seriously. Society is full of games programmed to keep peoples’ minds occupied so they will not revolt. These games often cause sick fixations on peculiar protocols, power structures, taboos and domination - all subtle forms of human bondage. This distinct form of madness is not only tolerated by the masses but insisted upon. The programmed ones believe in rules so forcefully they become willing to destroy anyone who violates them.

He's referring to laws which prevent this psychopath and those like him from torturing and tormenting you for their amusement. Remember; nothing is wrong with the idea of people agreeing to work together and form societies and governments. The problem stems from corruption within those societies and governments, and this corruption is almost entirely due to psychopaths ignoring the laws of decent behavior.

There is something to be said about the dangers of an authoritarian personality. Unfortunately, those are the people who fall under the spell of the psychopaths, not having any other choice. The question is, whose rules? Whose social institutions? Humanity's or the psychopaths'? Remember, nothing is wrong with the idea of people agreeing to work together and form societies and governments. The problem stems from corruption within those societies and governments, and this corruption is almost entirely due to psychopaths ignoring the laws of decent behavior, laws which prevent this psychopath and those like him from torturing and tormenting you for their amusement.

Wayseers are the ones who call their bluff. Since Wayseer minds are free to reject social programming, Wayseers readily see social institutions for what they are - imaginary games. Wayseers comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable. Helping those who are lost in these games and refuse to help themselves is a calling of many Wayseers. Since Wayseers are the ones who keep contact with the original source of reality, they are able to disrupt societal conventions and even governments to realign humanity with The Way.

This is more truth revealed. Psychopaths long to reject social laws which they cannot understand exactly because they lack the required functioning brain tissue. What a normal human would see as common sense and civility, (such as not butchering a stranger because his shoes are nicer than yours), the psychopath is baffled by. This whole video is an effort to trick normal people into accepting aberrant behavior, taking us all a few steps closer to accepting a world where people are butchered because of their shoes or whatever other petty reason crosses the psychopath's mind.

This is more truth revealed. Psychopaths long to reject social laws which they cannot understand exactly because they lack the required brain functions (like "repression" or inhibition).

This whole video is an effort to trick normal people into accepting aberrant behavior, taking us all a few steps closer to accepting a world where people are butchered because of their shoes or whatever other petty reason crosses the psychopath's mind.

Wayseers are an ancient lineage - a kind of priesthood, carriers of the flame, ones "in the know."

This is true despite the flowery language. The psychopath has been with us forever.

There must always be Wayseers to reform the dizzying psychotic spinning wheels of society, giant mindless hamster wheels obscuring the pure blue sky, keeping humanity shackled in a darkened cage. So Wayseers are called - to shed light on the madness of society, to continually resurrect the timeless transcendent Spirit of Truth.

He has it backwards. In the good times, when there is plenty and people are happy and free to forget the difficult times, the psychopath is able to breed quickly because there is enough resources for everybody to allow some people to indulge in greed and destruction. But good times in history always allow for a sharp increase in the number of psychopaths who then infest communities and governments, sabotaging vital systems for their own gain, and eventually pulling us all into war and darkness and repressive times. We are at the peek of just such a cycle, with more psychopaths now than ever before running amok through the world.

Wayseers reveal this divine truth by devoting themselves to the birth of some creative or disruptive act expressed through art or philosophy, innovations to shake up industry, revolutions for democracy, coups that topple hypocrisy, movements of solidarity, changes that leave a legacy, rebellions against policy, spirit infused technology, moments of clarity, things that challenge barbarity, watersheds of sincerity, momentous drives for charity.

These are fine things indeed, but they are NEVER the goals of the psychopath. They are how sane humans are sometime able to respond after the world has been so darkened by the very activities of the psychopaths who infest our governments, our communities. . . and who make videos like this one.

CHORUS
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all affected, by The Way
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all attracted to the flame.

This is your calling, Wayseer.
You’ve found your tribe.
Welcome home.

Again, these lyrics were carefully designed to inflame your emotions and blind you to rational thought. To make you not see that you are being manipulated into respecting and revering blood-thirsty monsters.

Sorry, this wasn't clear. I mean to make a REAL "wayseers" video, where the distinctions are made clear and the twists are untwisted. We can even use his script as a guide, perhaps.
 
Thank-you for the editorial notes, Approaching Infinity! I'll do a re-write later tonight. I'm hoping anybody with further insights will pitch in before I get started on that.
 
Wow! He said what ever he wants with no backup to what he is saying or critical thinking. This guy must be a ADD guy. All the characteristics he was saying are classic ADD symptoms. Of course main stream medical establishment made ADD a disease for its own benefit and control. He took ADD symptoms and add the masala of every thing he wants and made them wayseers. Video has 90,000 views in 11 days. well looks another hook game for lazy disgruntled mind.

Found another article written by him "Surprising Way Your Neanderthal Genes May Affect You"

_http://www.huffingtonpost.com/garret-loporto/surprising-way-your-neand_b_568455.html

It may be our Neanderthal genes that are behind virtually all human progress. New DNA data reveals that many of us are carrying Neanderthal genes. And not only that, but evidence is mounting that when those genes are activated in you, they can cause you to become incredibly resourceful, pioneering, creative... and utterly out of control.

(...)

The Neanderthals were so random and so creative that they could not create any kind of society because all their inspiration, ideas and creations ended up dying off in the chaos. On the other hand, the modern humans were just too fragile and too uncreative to compete with the Neanderthals or make any progress on their own. So the wild maniacal Neanderthals held all of Europe and Asia and the modern humans were stuck in Africa.

Neanderthals & Modern Humans Collide: Technology Explodes.
Then something miraculous happened. About 37,000 years ago Neanderthals likely intermingled with modern humans, because boom - all of a sudden there's a new gene in the human genome, the DRD4 7R gene -- which has been a prime suspect for originating from Neanderthals for some time now. This gene is associated with risk-taking, sensation-seeking and novelty-seeking, and correlated with openness to new experiences, intolerance to monotony, and exploratory behavior -- you know... Neanderthal stuff.

(...)

This miraculous combination created a new kind of "super" human hybrid tribe: part Neanderthal, part modern human -- and they DOMINATED. They had the battle skills and ingenuity of Neanderthals and the stability of modern humans working together to sustain their growth, progress and eventual dominion. Suddenly Earth was transformed -- virtually overnight evolutionarily speaking. Within the cosmic blink of an eye, mankind was creating and sustaining large civilizations fueled by innovations in language, agriculture, technology and culture. And this DRD4 7R gene is likely the cause.

The reason this works is that some people in the population have the activated DRD4 7R gene (about 10%), some are just carriers (about 20%) and some don't have it at all (the vast majority -- 80%). If you've got the active DRD4 7R gene - you're going to be risk-taking, creative, innovative and very hard to reign in - much like the Neanderthals. Let's call these people the Uprisers. If you don't have it, you're going to be more stable and traditional -- much like the modern humans. Let's call these people the Stabilizers. So right now -- worldwide -- 10% of people are Uprisers, 90% are stabilizers.

This new hybrid "super" human tribe became successful because it had the best of both worlds -- the Uprisers (those with the Neanderthal disposition) who would rebel, innovate, pioneer and lead change -- and the Stabilizers (those with the modern human disposition) who would stabilize and institutionalize all the positive innovation and changes trail-blazed by the Uprisers, which would have been doomed to collapse under its own disorder if it weren't for the steady hands of the Stabilizers.

:shock:

Given the Neanderthal/psychopathy hypothesis this is pretty dang interesting!! Funny thing is when I first saw his picture I thought he looked like a Neanderthal.

I haven't watched the video yet so I don't know if he talks specifically about his 'Neanderthal ideas' or not.

Wow, that is really nuts about Neanderthal genes. What a complete reversal of what seems to be true.

Woodsman, I really don't know how to improve on what you've done. However, if it is helpful in any way, I'm certain this author will grant you infinite permission to rip, link to, or even trash anything on that blog page just for the free publicity. ;) And vice-versa of course!
 
I've seen this video being posted on FB more and more over the past days. I finally watched it and wanted to scream out in "terror"! :scared:
It is such a manipulative video that can lead people over the cliff blindfolded.

I also can't help to notice how some of the film clips used in this video are identically to what we used in the "Know Thyself" video. Hmmmm.... not to sound paranoid or self-important, but maybe someone saw our video and thought that there needs to be some "damage control" or someone wanted to do a more hip and flashy version that appeals to the masses?

I really like what AI and Woodsman have written so far. It definitely should be put up to give the lie what it deserves: the truth! In regards to the video, are you suggesting to use the original wayseers video with the original narration and then blend in the commentary after certain parts? I think that may be a good approach, so people can see the lies and distortion directly. Youtube is all fair use and free so the wayseer video can be downloaded and cut appropriately.

I also suggest to do make a transcript of the wayseers video with the comments by AI/Woodsman (and others) and put it up as an article on SOTT.
 
Jeez, when I got home from work I had this song going through my head. I don't know why - I hadn't thought about it all day.
:barf:
 
Okay. . .

--I used most of AI's edits directly with only a couple of minor changes. . .

1) Took out reference to Nazis, Soviets and Neocons and gave it a more generally accepted attribution so as to avoid semantic escape-routes from the core message via volatile differences in political opinion and skin-head type thinking. Better to not give a point which can be directly argued and instead just imply, "Those governments you don't like."

2) Gave one point its own space and added to it. ("Psychopaths can't stand the rules created by non-psychopaths...")

Also. . .

--Got rid of the word "Creep" and other reactionary pejoratives. (Duh. :-[ )

--Added a note about Charles Manson which needs fact-checking.

Does anybody have any further suggestions?


________EDIT:
--Added a short closing note. (It was an afterthought after I'd already posted this whole thing. I invite somebody to come up with something better because it's mostly a place-holder and I am hesitant about labeling who and what we are without general approval.)

Also. . , getting this into the YouTube response stream fast is probably a good idea if the original is already topping 90,000 views, and so a basic scrolling text inclusion would be a way to do that. But if we were to add voice-over work, then I nominate the same narrator voice as detached and Spiral Out used in their exemplary new video series. http://cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php?topic=22332.0 I think not only is that voice reasoned, smart-sounding and warm, but it would also offer a nice way to cross pollinate and offer an on-ramp for alternative thinking.

Well now. . . The question is, which "establishment"? The psychopathic establishment that fosters war, impulsiveness, dog-eat-dog capitalism, and social anomie? Or the collective effort of people working together - all of us - who want to see each other happy? That isn't bad. What's bad are the psychopaths who have corrupted our community, made it toxic, bending it towards war and insanity and the enslavement of everybody, kids and adults alike.

You see things others don’t. You are hardwired to change the world. Unlike nine out of ten people, your mind is irrepressible, and this threatens authority. You were born to be a revolutionary.

Psychopaths are hardwired to change the world. Just look at the personalities behind any fascist government or ruthless dictatorship. Unlike nine out of ten people, their minds were irrepressible and threatened the moral authority of decent humanity. They were born revolutionaries.

You can’t stand rules because in your heart you know there’s a better way.

There are many rules created by our psychopathic leaders which we can't stand. Which are the rules he's talking about? Psychopaths can't stand the rules created by non-psychopaths. Non-psychopaths can't stand the rules created by psychopaths. You need your prefrontal cortex to tell the difference.

You have strengths dangerous to the establishment, and it wants them eliminated, So your whole life you’ve been told your strengths were weaknesses - Now I’m telling you otherwise.
Are you being influenced by the stirring music and masculine energy of the speaker and the message that you are *special*? Such strong, stirring emotions overwhelm the thinking parts of one's mind. With your guard thus down, you are open to doing what you are told by the person making you feel this emotional high. "You are special! (Give me your money.) You are a revolutionary! (Kill for me. Be my slave.)" Psychopaths seek to collect followers to feed their ego, and emotional manipulation of this sort is one of the chief ways they do it. The only defense is to employ your prefrontal cortex, the very thing this psychopath is instructing you to ignore.

Your impulsivity is a gift. Impulses are your key to the miraculous.

Your distractibility is an artifact of your inspired creativity.
Impulsivity and distractibility are increasingly common traits among many people today, and this behavior can often be traced to an over-exposure to a toxic environment; toxic foods, toxic media, electromagnetic pollution, toxic build materials, toxic education, toxic medications. The world is filled with pollution which prevents our minds from working properly. But instead of advising how to recognize and cut out the poisons, this video is instead telling you to ignore that you are being poisoned and to pretend that the symptoms of toxicity are actually evidence that you are special and magical.

Charles Manson liked his followers to be high, but he didn't use the drugs himself. Why do you think that was? [_____Question to forum members: Is this point about Manson accurate, or was it somebody else? Leave this note in our out?______]

Your mood swings reflect the natural pulse of life. They give you unstoppable energy when you're high, deep soulful insight when you're low.

Been diagnosed with a "disorder"? That’s society’s latest way to deny its own illness by pointing the finger at you. Your addictive personality is just a symptom of your vast underused capacity for heroic, creative expression and spiritual connection. Your utter lack of repression, your wide eyed idealism, your unmitigated open mind [...]

Ah. Now here it gets more insidious. He's no longer talking about poisoned people. He's talking directly to other psychopaths. An "utter lack of repression" is a problem. Without the ability to choose against urges from the reptilian brain, a psychopath has no problem committing all manner of chaotic, violent and depraved acts which the psychopath so loves. He is simply trying to trick the rest of us into thinking that this behavior is somehow special.

- didn’t anyone ever tell you?

These are the traits shared by the greatest pioneers and visionaries, innovators, revolutionaries, procrastinators and drama queens, activists on the social scene, space cadets, mavericks, philosophers, derelicts, business suits flying fighter jets, football stars and sex addicts, celebrities with ADD, alcoholics who seek novelty, first responders, prophets and saints, mystics and change agents.

Nonsense. Sex addicts, alcoholics and procrastinators are not in the same league as Ghandi and JFK and our other visionaries. Why? Because being a visionary takes WORK and focus. This is just a cheap way to trick people into thinking that their weaknesses are in fact strengths. He doesn't want you to work on yourself. After all, if you do, you might grow strong and self-aware enough to see through his lies.

CHORUS
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all affected, by The Way
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all attracted to the flame.

You know in your heart that there's a natural order, something more sovereign than any man-made rules or laws could ever express.

This natural order is called "The Way."

These are poetic words which are more dangerous than you might realize. Not just because they are nonsense designed to inflame your emotions and lead you to following a false prophet, but because he is referencing a REAL system of spiritualism called the "Fourth Way". --This is a means of confusing and distracting potential seekers of truth away from a system which actually works and which doesn't favor those who do not work to develop critical thinking.

The Way is the eternal substrate of the cosmos. It guides the very current of time and space. The Way is known by some as The Will of God, Divine Providence, The Holy Spirit, the Implicate Order, the Tao, reverse entropy, life force, but for now we’ll simply call it 'The Way.' The Way is reflected in you as the source of your inspiration, the source of your passions, your wisdom, your enthusiasm, your intuition, your spiritual fire...love. The Way takes the chaos out of the Universe and breathes life into it, giving it divine order. The Way, when expressed by the mind, is genius; perceived through the eyes, is beauty; felt through the senses, is grace. When allowed into the heart...is love.

The universe contains aspects of all these things, and much more! But again, like trying to associate Gahdhi with Charlie Sheen, simply telling us that grace and spiritual fire exist is not the same as actually offering them. And you certainly won't get there by pursuing emotional and chemical highs, turning off your thinking minds and embracing only the self-serving reptilian impulses of the psychopath. You might feel good and special while rampaging through the world chasing selfish whims, but you are choosing to be a monster, causing pain and suffering to those around you. And he calls this love? Does ignoring your effect on others sound like love to you?

Most people cannot sense The Way directly...but then there are the Wayseers, the keepers of the flame. Wayseers have an unexplainable knack for just knowing The Way. They sense it in their very being. They can’t tell you why or how they arrived at the right answer. They just know it in their core. They can’t show their work, so don’t ask. Their minds simply resonate with The Way. When The Way is present, so are they.

He is referring to Instinct but he is describing Emotions. Instinct is the means by which our subconscious selves communicate to our conscious selves, and it is indeed very powerful. Emotions, however, can fool you. Emotions like those being evoked by the music in this video, by the narrator's rhythmic voice, (which he practiced beforehand, no doubt after his script went through many drafts with a marketing consultant). Emotions and powerful internal drives are how your automatic behaviors, your sense of hunger and fear and sexual awareness pull you along. They are instincts of an automatic sort. They are not necessarily wrong, we need them, and when mitigated through the use of our prefrontal cortices, we can decide when it is appropriate and healthy to act upon them. But they are not Real instincts of the kind this video is trying to make you believe they are. Real instincts which speak from the soul cannot be heard through the clutter of emotional noise unless you work to recognize which are automatic and which are not. Do you think an alcoholic or an addict is capable of performing this work to get in touch with REAL spirit? They can, of course, but only after cleaning their mental, physical and spiritual bodies allowing for the sharpening awareness.

While others are blind to it, and society begs you to ignore it, The Way stirs you inside. Neurological repression blocks most people’s awareness of The Way. Censoring all thoughts and impulses from the unconscious is their prefrontal cortex, the Gestapo of the brain.

He is deliberately mixing things up here. The prefrontal cortex does mitigate the signals coming from below. But not all of those signals are smart ones to follow. Some come from the reptilian brain, base fear and hunger, automatic motivations. Those are GOOD things to filter out. The prisons are full of psychopaths who act on those impulses, who murder and rape and destroy. The prefrontal cortex is our ticket to freedom from the jungle. To civilization.

Nothing which violates its socialized programming even gets through. But your mind is different. Your mind has been cracked wide open to The Way; by some miraculous genetic trait, some psychotropic chemical or maybe even by the will of your own soul.

And here we see the naked truth. The 'miraculous genetic trait' is that of the psychopath's brain failing to connect and work properly. When the amygdala fails to respond to emotional cues, it cannot make those cues available to the prefrontal cortex. The mind acts solely on automatic whims and desires, failing to factor in the significance of other people as thinking, feeling beings. Other people become objects that only get in the way of impulsive, reckless and destructive behaviors. No, 90% of humans have the genetic capacity to understand the importance of other people, and the need to repress certain whims and desires. It is the minority who cause the problems, influencing the majority to think they are "special" while mixing up psychopathy with conscience. To break free from the psychopathic establishment means getting in touch with your prefrontal cortex and SEEing that uninhibited psychopathy is the root of repression.

Your brain’s reward pathways have been hijacked; dopamine employed to overthrow the fascist dictatorship of your prefrontal cortex. Now your brain is free of repression, your mind free of censorship, your awareness exposed to the turbulent seas of the unconscious - through this open doorway divine light shines into your consciousness, showing you The Way. This is what makes you a Wayseer.

He is glamorizing the psychopathic brain, giving those world-destroying monsters a special title, "Wayseer". Newsflash: the people who poisoned the Gulf of Mexico with millions of barrels of spilled oil and who even now evade responsibility resulting in tens of thousands of suffering people would have been "Wayseers" according to this logic. As would the bankers who have devastated the economy, leaving hundreds of thousands homeless and hungry. As would be those who push for war, resulting in the degradation and suffering of millions. That's who he is glamorizing, all the while appealing to those suffering on the other end of the stick.

Ninety percent of human civilization is populated with those whose brains are blocked to The Way. Their brains are hardwired to enforce the social programming indoctrinated since birth. Unlike you they cannot break out of this programming, because they have not yet experienced the necessary revolution of mind. These programmed people take social institutions and rules very seriously. Society is full of games programmed to keep peoples’ minds occupied so they will not revolt. These games often cause sick fixations on peculiar protocols, power structures, taboos and domination - all subtle forms of human bondage. This distinct form of madness is not only tolerated by the masses but insisted upon. The programmed ones believe in rules so forcefully they become willing to destroy anyone who violates them.

There is something to be said about the dangers of an authoritarian personality. Unfortunately, those are the people who fall under the spell of the psychopaths, not having any other choice. The question is, whose rules? Whose social institutions? Humanity's or the psychopaths'? Remember, nothing is wrong with the idea of people agreeing to work together and form societies and governments. The problem stems from corruption within those societies and governments, and this corruption is almost entirely due to psychopaths ignoring the laws of decent behavior, laws which prevent this psychopath and those like him from torturing and tormenting you for their amusement.

Wayseers are the ones who call their bluff. Since Wayseer minds are free to reject social programming, Wayseers readily see social institutions for what they are - imaginary games. Wayseers comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable. Helping those who are lost in these games and refuse to help themselves is a calling of many Wayseers. Since Wayseers are the ones who keep contact with the original source of reality, they are able to disrupt societal conventions and even governments to realign humanity with The Way.

This is more truth revealed. Psychopaths long to reject social laws which they cannot understand exactly because they lack the required brain functions (like "repression" or inhibition). What a normal human would see as common sense and civility, (such as not butchering a stranger because his shoes are nicer than yours), the psychopath is baffled by. This whole video is an effort to trick normal people into accepting aberrant behavior, taking us all a few steps closer to accepting a world where people are butchered because of their shoes or whatever other petty reason crosses the psychopath's mind.

Wayseers are an ancient lineage - a kind of priesthood, carriers of the flame, ones "in the know."

This is true despite the flowery language. The psychopath has been with us forever.

There must always be Wayseers to reform the dizzying psychotic spinning wheels of society, giant mindless hamster wheels obscuring the pure blue sky, keeping humanity shackled in a darkened cage. So Wayseers are called - to shed light on the madness of society, to continually resurrect the timeless transcendent Spirit of Truth.

He has it backwards. In the good times, when there is plenty and people are happy and free to forget the difficult times, the psychopath is able to breed quickly because there is enough resources for everybody to allow some people to indulge in greed and destruction. But good times in history always allow for a sharp increase in the number of psychopaths who then infest communities and governments, sabotaging vital systems for their own gain, and eventually pulling us all into war and darkness and repressive times. We are at the peek of just such a cycle, with more psychopaths now than ever before running amok through the world.

Wayseers reveal this divine truth by devoting themselves to the birth of some creative or disruptive act expressed through art or philosophy, innovations to shake up industry, revolutions for democracy, coups that topple hypocrisy, movements of solidarity, changes that leave a legacy, rebellions against policy, spirit infused technology, moments of clarity, things that challenge barbarity, watersheds of sincerity, momentous drives for charity.

These are fine things indeed, but they are NEVER the goals of the psychopath. They are how sane humans are sometime able to respond after the world has been so darkened by the very activities of the psychopaths who infest our governments, our communities. . . and who make videos like this one.

CHORUS
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all affected, by The Way
We are all the same, you know
'cause we're all attracted to the flame.

This is your calling, Wayseer.
You’ve found your tribe.
Welcome home.

Again, these lyrics were carefully designed to inflame your emotions and blind you to rational thought. To make you not see that you are being manipulated into respecting and revering psychopaths.

Thank you for taking the time to consider what has been shared here. The tribe of the psychopath is a dead-end, a black-hole, the snake eating its own tail. By contrast, the Tribe of Light seeks and grows strong by accumulating Knowledge. Knowledge is the true Way.
