TO THE BULLIES OF FREEDOM

By Justin Deschamps

Reprinted with Permission
In The Matrix films , the character Morpheus described humanity as being reduced to power cells or batteries for the AI mainframe that took over long ago .
The obvious meaning to glean from this scene is that humanity is a literal power source , but a more subtle suggestion is that we fuel the matrix and the system of control itself . Without our participation , without our energy and consent , the system collapses . This point cannot be overstated .
TRANSCENDING VICTIM CONSCIOUSNESS
We live in a world where the mind / soul sickness of victim consciousness has created a near-total feeling of disempowerment . Most of us feel completely helpless against the oppressive nature of society and a civilization that stamps out freedom under many guises . But imagine if we simply stopped participating in this system . What if we — the powerhouse of the matrix of control — stopped paying our taxes , stopped going to work , stopped buying goods from nefarious corporations ? What if we just stopped feeding energy into anything that serves tyranny and enslavement , and only supplied our energy into truth , freedom , and justice , for all ?
I know it sounds like a wildly idealistic vision . Some of us will respond by saying : " But how will I live ? How will we get the things we need ? Won ' t this reduce our quality of life ?"
