RE: "That Guy's" Response to Robert Kiyosaki of Rich Dad/Poor Dad on Anarcho-Capitalism

in #politics7 years ago

I've always liked Robert Kiyosaki. I've read his books years ago and still use his 4 quadrants from time to time when evaluating myself. I also agree with him, that sometimes pushing the point can be do more harm than good. If he wasn't ready to admit that he's an anarchist, that's his perspective. I might be an anarchist myself, but I'm not sure I want to admit it. I would say there are many terms still around today that control us in more ways than we want to admit. It's like language and its connotations stay really deeply imprinted with us. Most of us are not really "free" enough in ourselves to truly rebel against them.

Indeed. I find many of the younger generations, me being part of them, constantly adopting a victim frame of mind towards authorities. Yes, we're oppressed, that's nothing new. It's something that has been part of our history since well, shit, Mesopotamia, Sumeria, and forever! But no one can ever be "free" if they continually think evil is on the outside of themselves. You work with the forces, discover how much you are like them, transmute the energy and use it for the greater good without succumbing to the corruption and darkness of your enemy. This is insanely difficult which is why many would rather just point the finger any chance they get and try to force others to change instead.
