“There is no such thing as a victim”

Not too long ago, a friend of mine and I had a long discussion. He raised a question and a point. That discussion inspired me to write about this topic, as I feel that this is yet another manipulation tool in this reality that is important to be aware of.

Our conversation started when he was talking about the “Fix the World” group and how he didn’t resonate with the title of the group because, in his opinion, the world doesn’t need to be fixed. He said that only in the mindset of a victim does someone need to be saved but the earth doesn’t need to be saved. It is well perfect as it is and it is not a victim but is allowing everything that takes place to play out. He asked me, “Do you think that the earth is a victim?” My answer let us on a long discussion that we didn’t have time to finish because I had to leave. My answer was, “The earth is not a victim and it is a victim at the same time. The truth is in the contradiction.” He did not understand what I was talking about and was asking me more questions trying to make a point that the earth is not a victim. He didn’t understand that I was agreeing with him, yet at the same time showing a deeper meaning and a more complete understanding of our reality. And here’s what I mean.

I'm Tired of Eating These Games: The Hunger Games and How We're Manipulated by Films Like This

Yesterday, I watched a film that I've heard people speaking about for a year now on and off. It didn't pull me to watch it when it first came out; however, I felt the need to do it finally yesterday. The film is The Hunger Games [the first one, not the one in theaters now]. Before watching it, I was expecting this to be a film showing a future totalitarian society, its depths, and intricacies -- which is usually what I like about these types of films, since they show glimpses into alternate/parallel earth timelines or timelines on other planets. Anyway, watching about halfway through the film, I realized that it was nothing what I expected, but everything that I needed to see in order to experience the reality of what our society is in at this moment.
