A Society locked in Shackles

A wise philosopher by the name of Max Weber once said "The fate of our times is characterized by rationalization and intellectualization and, above all, by the disenchantment of the world". Meaning Precisely the ultimate and most sublime values have retreated from public life either into the transcendental realm of mystic life or into the brotherliness of direct and personal human relations.

It is not accidental that our greatest art is intimate and not monumental. I come forth today to speak words of wisdom and knowledge, to talk about the ignorant and blind society we live in hopefully after reading this the people of society will become more open to the reality we live in today.

Every day I wake up I see a world poverty, murder, genocide, drugs, and government's filled with corrupted men, and most of all I see a society of humans blind to the world of politics and so many young men and women full of wisdom who let a government of corrupted men reign over them.

In today's society people rather post every second of their lives on Facebook or Twitter instead of discovering the truth about the world of politicians, and finding solutions to solving global poverty, world hunger, urban decay, genocide, or economic disparity we as a society steady ignore these facts letting them continue to roam rapidly. I tend to ask myself what has humanity come to i mean are we really that easy to rob ourselves of light. i guess you can call me a dreamer one day i would like to see a world of everlasting tranquility, where poverty and genocide no longer rages on in third world countries.

a world where everyone understands each other on equal footing and stop discriminating one another, a society where everybody has money in their pockets and dont have to rob or kill, and most of all a world where the elements of hate, envy, and sin no longer taints our world and the darkness in peoples heart is taken away but this is a dream that will never happen.

Theres one thing i know for sure though if society continues to spiral down hill this way we as whole will end on the verge of extinction.
