Red white and blue

Bullies, that is the reigning theme in my mind right now. My definition of a bully is one who uses superior intellect, strength or position to manipulate another. The superiority is of course perceived as the saying the bigger they are the harder they fall demonstrates.

All the same, from the moment that one recognizes that they are in a position of influence they then have the responsibility to ensure that those they influence are in no way harmed. If you choose to be the policeperson for the entire world then you must take the role and apply the law equally among all of the worlds citizens. To however pick and choose where you police is an abuse of your power and in essence you lose the right to administrate the law.

This is not a world belonging to one person, once state, one nation, the world belongs to us all and we must co exist. "With great power comes great responsibility" when this responsibility is abused you then become a bully.

This then in my mind creates a space in the consiousness for rebellion. Rebellion occurs when people say no more. I admit that for as long as those with power continue to defend their posistion and actions with aggressions, there are those that will not have the guts to attack, and those that do, will not attack directly but through underhanded attacks that normally leave many innocent persons hurt. In my mind the bullies are therfore actually responsible for the deaths of those who are caught in the line of fire. They may react angrily by directly going for those they feel have undermined their authority, but this then just feeds a negative cycle of attacks and counter attacks. when will it end?

The possible fall of the bully? possibly not, but the unity of the nations, possibly yes. as crazy as this sounds, if we all came together against the tyranny of the bully, against the double standards netted against the nations, against direct attacks by those within the bullies direct control, we may just have a chance to get away.

What is my message after all this? I guess to say the the world is not red, white and blue, and that i protest against those that are trying to paint it so. we shall not conform to the will of the bully, to be slaves of the modern world. That the pursuit of freedom from tyranny is a call we must all hear.


Get a little painted
