2% curiosity

greetings,

2% are awake.
98% are asleep.
this is an unpleasant fact.

it is happy friday in paradise. paradise is a country where survivors are happy. they are ecstatic. they are laughing and running and playing and planting and harvesting and breeding and working.

a brave new world. except for the four old relics, the dying examples on a show trial for genocide between 1975-1979 when 1.7 million people died. they deny their role. reminds one of the chinese gang of four. how quickly people forget. the media likes this distracting fact.

numbed silence. traumatized and anesthetized.
send in the clowns. send in the politicians and bankers. same-same but different.

paradise survivors are happy because they are alive. they started over after Year Zero. everyone has food, clean water, medicine and socratic educational opportunities to rebuild their culture. it will take another generation, or 60 years given the average life expectancy.

one day alice in slumberland said, you should just blend in. during a genocide people who asked questions disappeared. they vanished. they became extinct. asking questions was not allowed. asking questions now is seen as strange and startling and dangerous. dangerous people ask questions. 

a priori theory without facts or thought or doubt or wonder or curiosity is a male land mine survivor without legs. they live on ground zero. they sit near the pagoda waiting for kindness. where are the female land mine survivors? maybe they are dead and gone. maybe they live somewhere safe and have someone taking care of their needs. 

questions are forbidden. ask at your peril.

curiosity is fatal. curiosity kills more humans than war and disease and starvation.

metta,
