To begin my stories, I want to give the reader a sense of exactly the nature of thing which I'm trying to discuss. Though communication between you and I may be slightly hinged by the very factors which will be discussed, I will do my best to put light on how ugly reality can be. The world has seen many wars and each of these wars share very similar things in common. There is always the personification of at least two sides of the war. This comes in the form of a general that is responsible for the troops or leader of some sort responsible for coordinating their side of the attack. When you look at the leader of either side, no matter how much credit you might give those leaders, they are still a normal human like you and I. So what is it exactly that put that person in the position of leadership? What does it really mean to be just like anybody else, yet, elevated to a position where you command thousands of other people in such a way that causes the death of thousands of other people, including your own. How does it really come to this?
The answer to this question is fairly simple and nearly unbelievable in this day and age that anything like the nature of what happens, can exist. The idea that somewhere out there, someone just wants to take someones life for no other reason than the sake of doing so, is completely obsurd. Just as some things may be unbelievable, some things are unthinkable to many people. The reason for this is because of how common something is. This may be hard to grasp and I'll come back to the topic of how people gained power historically, shortly, but, let's talk about things so common that nobody can even think about it any other way. Roads, the air you breath, and time itself are things which people commonly lack an understanding of what it could be like without, yet in the desert today and jungles of the southern hemisphere, nobody has roads. In the study of quantum physics, every moment that has ever happened, is happening, or will happen, all already exist and thus the idea of time is merely an illusion of perspective change.
To understand why humans do what they do, we have to look at one of the unthinkable things which we take for granted, the most. This would be roads. Roads today are very useful, but, are one of the most unthinkable things to the common person because we can go our whole lives with them or without them and never have the idea of what it would be with or without them, in our minds. Those who have them never ask what it would be like without them, nor do I commonly hear it as something children ask their parents. From my perspective, it's a safe assumption to say that roads are too common or in the places where there are no roads, too rare, for common people to fathom the opposite. So what kind of person thinks of building roads and minting currency? A person who becomes a king? Incorrect.
The person who becomes a king isn't someone who builds roads themselves nor are they the inventors of the roads commonly used in their society. When someone builds roads, they understand that it makes transportation of things much more quickly. People these days rent houses instead of saving money to purchase a house cash and never having to worry about paying money on a house ever again. This no longer works so simply unless you have way more money then the house you purchased, because now banks illegally forclose houses that regular people paid for in full and have no mortgage on therefore there is more security in other places that don't have this system of bank house ownership. The reason people rent houses in the old days was the same reason people didn't take the time to build a road for themselves. People didn't want to make their lives easier because they just wanted to target gratification. Only a small amount of people can actually realize the wholeness that is all factors beyond their beast mentality. It's easier to just do what you have to do that day, instead of doing what you have to do as well as build a road if you can even think of a road in a world without them.
So when someone goes around making a road, a common person looks at the road and realizes that they can have it easier by going down the road. The one thing the common person doesn't do even if they themselves have a similar standard, is acknowledge that the road isn't their road. Like an animal that is beaten for doing a task that shouldn't be done, a common person has to be ran over by a wagon or cars and punished until they realize the roads aren't their road alone, especially if they didn't build the road. This is why democracy doesn't really work for the common person. Because democracy means when everybody votes, they all want to be selfish and so they all put themselves in a stand off with each other that invalidates the idea. If people could, they would declare everything theirs. You see this is third world countries where someone from the first world decides to make themselves at home and steals large quantities of land while believing they really are entitled to what they have, which doesn't always work out that way unless they steal land from someone who is ironically not as savage as themselves and willing to have other people legally killed. This is why in North America, it's for the most part legal almost everywhere for people to kill trespassers. Because it's something the primative common folk all agree on.
In Europe for the first time in history, they actually aren't acting like complete animals and claiming territory all over the place. It's illegal to have weapons, but, this doesn't stop people from obtaining the weapons and getting away with crimes they commit. The only reason weapons are illegal in most of Europe is because the people in charge in a very dictatorship manner and not in a democratic manner, ultimately don't want to get lynched by their own people too easily. It's really easy to make a weapon of any sort these days. Common people aren't expected even by their own governments calling themselves a democracy, to be smart enough to do basic production on their own. Farmers are very important to most of society, but, are taken for granted by most people and even publicly chastized. In Asia, it's fairly common for farmers to be lynched in mass every few hundred years. This is something even commonly accepted by the current leaders of most Asian countries that haven't been annexed into socialism.
So people commonly say things like what's savage, like killing to solve problems and things of that nature. The reason behind it is because more intelligent people know other ways around getting what they want without killing. The same people today that call others savage for killing are the same people who themselves want to kill in order to solve their problems. It's a matter of animalistic territorial belief in ownership, even if you didn't do the work and didn't make the road. When people can't get what they want through murder, only then do they decide to try a more civil manner, but, will still resort to murder when given the chance. A perfect example of this is when a North American country invades the middle east saying we don't negotiate with terrorist, but yet, the so called terrorist are mostly civilians fighting to protect themselves. The remaining survivors are people too afraid to protect their own land yet expected to do so like slaves for the invaders who take their resources from them.
Even intelligent people are chastized by the masses, as people who rightfully do something good for the entire species of humanity, end up getting a nobel peace prize after they die so society doesn't have to pay them any money to make their life any easier. This story isn't going to end nicely for the majority of people who pretend to be intelligent by copying what other people do merely as a primative survival instinct, instead of coming up with their own ideas. These same people take credit for inventing everything throughout history no matter what race they are, yet for some reason, don't understand how to manage their own roads and production in their own country. These people say they invent something and don't even understand the rational behind why the invention would have ever been invented in the first place. People who explain the logic behind their knowledge have their knowledge called an opinion and people who back the person up as fact are only doing it because they gain something from it.
This brings me to my next subject, the person who gets to be the king. Kings are the people who most people gain from when called forth as a king. Ironically, socialist are more prone to monarchy because they don't want to do any of the work themselves and thus want somebody else to be in charge and have responsibility, unless they are so stupid they don't understand what they're getting themselves into and just want the power they think is in that position of authority. Look at the Queen of Britain. How can she call herself the Queen when her country is running on what appears to be a democracy, even though the common people don't have a say in the matter because when they vote, their votes aren't as important as people who are suppose to be considered representatives, but, are merely honey pots. These honey pots distract people.
The reason somebody becomes royalty of any sort is because a majority of people gain from those people being in charge at the time. When it doesn't work out that way, people from outside who are raiders and terrorist, invade and take over. The reason these invaders are successful is because nobody gains anything from fighting them except the noble class. Common people end up gaining more when the invaders take over because in this state, the majority that once put the nobles in charge of society because it did something good for them, now no longer profit anything from the nobles being in charge. They swap the old kings out with new kings. These people are no different then the people we call thugs today. These are criminal like people in a time when crime wasn't a thing, that stole from others and formed large social groups for their own gains by taking advantage of collectivism. Just because you are in a large group of people who all believe the same thing, doesn't mean you're any better than a cult of people who are just being used by the leaders, which is commonly the case, even in nationalist circles.
