Knife, Tinder, Spark

I hate vegans because they come at me with what THEY believe I should be.

They don't ask: "Who are you? What do you do in this world?"

Instead, they attack like ravenous meat eaters at the top of the food chain failing to notice we are kin: skin, flesh, bone, spirit...

They seem to believe they come from a high holy consciousness, so holy that the whole spirit world comes down and kneels before them because they are the one true god or goddess by the simplest means of dietary choice.

The holy people I know and have known are humble, not arrogant. They KNOW we are all sacred, they are more connected and they usually EAT MEAT!

This...is an example.

...an example of how we fight amongst each other.

Put auto pilot on bullshit and attack the immediate.

Empire likes this. I would say empire designed it that way.

Good we fight amonst each other in our sufficient safety and not go after the source (see "Storm the Bastille").

Change the word "vegan" to whatever human group, the word "I" to you, and you just might see what I'm sayin'.

We here at the bottom are doing the work of empire when we beat ourselves or each other up.

Empire doesn't have to do the work. We are safe and it is safer to beat each other up than to organize and fight empire.

And what is empire made of, other than our fellow human beings who've organized well enough to threaten folks into submission in order to steal everything for themselves. We have become so afraid they don't even have to threaten our safety to control us...we do it for them.

This...we call freedom.

I don't blame you all, we were designed this way. Many of us have chosen to break from that mold and question our allegations of freedom.

Coyote took stone knives into the body of the monster serpent that swallowed him. He lit fires in him to let all the creatures the monster swallowed escape. He went to the heart of the monster and cut it with his stone knives killing the beast.

Although the monster convinces us we haven't been eaten, we have indeed been swallowed up. I offer you and me and all of us imaginary stone knives, tinder, and spark.

I will think good thoughts for you and ask that you think good thoughts for me.

May one, some, or all of us find the heart of the monster and kill the beast before it destroys the world.

PS It's destruction may be on auto-pilot.
