The Death Cult Hierarchy

I don't believe or recognise hierarchy. This is something I've come to understand about myself more clearly these days because it was something so automatic to me that I never fully understood this part of myself in the past. It showed itself in small ways because I was never a "rebel". Meaning I never intentionally set out to go against the status quo. But if I, say, met a girlfriend's parents I wouldn't refer to them as "Sir" or "Mr/Mrs". I'd just call them by their first name. If I had to work or deal with an expert, again I'd meet them straight off with a friendly but casual manner. Over the years I've occasionally noticed some people get a bit put out by this but I was never rude. I didn't understand it then, that's just how I was, but now I see it was because hierarchy has never made much sense to me. Just because you are older than me why should I respect you more? Just because you know more than me about a particular subject that doesn't automatically qualify you for immediate awe and respect.

I've always felt things should be judged on how they actually are. Nothing else matters but how the thing hits you here and now in this moment. So in terms of music, I don't buy into the hierarchical structure of the music world. If I can get the same results as someone who has done it the conventional way by taking a different path the end result is just as valid. I'm not talking about the same attitude AI art people or the social media influencers put forth - a sense of entitlement. You can't cheat or take a short-cut on certain things but there is definite hierarchical attitude in a lot of people in the music world. They resent you if you haven't ticked off certain things on the checklist.

My certainty in what I do comes from a different place. It is not arrogance. If somebody says they don't like my voice or songs or whatever, it doesn't bother me because in most cases if I sat down with that person and went through what voices or songs they do like, it wouldn't be to my taste. A lot of people have forgotten that these days. There are certain people in music who have become legends to the point it's unthinkable to fans of those artists that not everyone shares their taste. Sting may be considered a better singer than Neil Young but I prefer Neil Young's voice. Queen are super popular these days and although I listened to them as a child, it was only their greatest hits album, because even on that album I only liked a few of their big hit songs and wasn't much interested in the rest. I agree Freddie Mercury was a great singer but I'd still put plenty others above him, singers who would be considered technically inferior, and Queen's songwriting style and production is overall not to my taste. That's the thing about music. It can't be hierarchical because music is meant to move you and we can't always explain logically why a song or artist moves us. I make Music for me first and foremost. I'm trying to please myself and I feel I have high standards for what I like so I trust that in-built quality control. If I can please myself and finish a recording and feel this is something I'd like to listen to then I usually feel satisfied to put it out with a sense that others will respond to it similarly. I've found that most of the people who haven't been into what I do over the years have a different taste in music to me. So those people are not the best people to judge what I'm trying for. If I feel someone shares the same aesthetic as me and can see what I'm trying for, I will certainly listen to that person. But I may still disagree anyway!

Art can only ever be subjective. That's why the system hates art and artists. The system is all about logic and control and categorising things, making everything a neat product that has a box it can go into. Art is the total enemy of the 0's and 1's digital culture we exist in today. Yet that doesn't stop them trying to force art into that framework. This is never more evident than on social media. Within this madness, I'm just going about what I do as best I can, trying to refine and improve my expression all the time. I can keep going without much validation because nothing I hear by those who are being pushed to us grabs my attention at all. What they are calling the cream of music in these times means nothing to me. I don't like modern production, songs, singing styles. I think we're going backwards. So I don't want any part of it. There are no producers or engineers around that I've come across who make me feel they could do a better job than me. There are no singers or musicians that give me that feeling either. So that's why I do it all myself now. It's not because I think I'm the best singer or producer, I am only what I am, and I don't think of myself that way. Most of the time as an artist you are trying to get out of the way and just let something come through. So evaluating myself has little interest to me. What does this song need? Then I try my best to reach that. Sometimes I'm limited by resources or physical constraints and as an artist you have to let things go out at some point. You know you'll never get ultimate perfection but sometimes you can get close. There is a certain feeling you get when you know "this one is just right". No criticism or rejection can touch those. You don't need anyone elses validation, you feel totally satisfied with the work you've done and you send it out on it's way into the world and what will be will be.

The same kind of hierarchy runs throughout the whole world and it's so strange to me. You come out of your mother's pussy, which it should be reminded is a creation of Nature, not the government or any man-made authority, and you don't have a birth certificate attached to you. So in that moment you are a free being like any other animal on this planet. The moment they give the birth certificate (which you are in no position to agree or disagree with) you are initiated into the Death Cult. Now they have a name for you and details, you are registered on their system, and so everything else follows... you are FORCED to go to school otherwise your parents will be in trouble and they will be FORCED one way or another. People wonder why there is so much violence on this planet never stopping to realise it can't be any other way. The whole Death Cult is built on violence. They make up laws and if you don't live by their laws they use FORCE (which is violence) to enFORCE those laws. They handcuff you, taser you, beat you, or shoot you if you don't do what they want you to do. In any other area of life that would be a bully. And the question is never asked... since they are people just like you, and they came out of their mother's pussy without a birth certificate just like you, where are they getting the knowledge and authority to tell you how to live?

If you were able to speak when you were born, what would they do if you refused to authorise a birth certificate for you? They have to capture you within their Death Cult before you are able to think for yourself. But some of us snap out of it later on life and realise what they have done. People don't need any laws to know not to commit murder, to steal, to hurt another. Just like any other animal, there is an innate intelligence which understands hurting another would be to hurt myself. In a world of abundance what would stealing look like? These problems are created by a system which takes the planet's resources from everyone and keeps most of it in the hands of a few and makes the rest of us beg for crumbs. Naturally, some who don't have will sooner or later want to steal from those who do.

Why do we continually take orders from others who are as equally clueless as us about how to live on this planet? Then people say, if we went to lawlessness there would be anarchy. I point out the above, that I don't need laws to tell me it's right or wrong to do certain things. The reply is usually "but you're different, not everyone has your self-control or awareness, some people are just like feral animals". Ok, so then I, and people like me, need somewhere to live on this planet away from the rest (see SoulJahm). But they don't want that either, they want you to stay. Maybe for your energy, for your talents, for whatever. They want the best people to remain in their Death Cult but what they don't understand is no intelligent, creative and high-functioning person can live in such a system. Those very traits they spot in you are what make you see through the limitations of that system and the total absurdity and senselessness of it. The low-life criminal isn't thinking this way, they very much believe in the system otherwise they wouldn't be doing what they are doing! Like attracts like. Criminals are attracted to the system because the system itself is criminal! Sane, intelligent and creative people are repelled by the system and want far away from it.

We will begin to see more and more groups of people break away from the system around the world and live only by the natural laws, completely disregarding man-made laws. Not out of arrogance but because they will have reclaimed their sovereign power. They will have realised it was all like the Wizard Of Oz all along. These man-made authorities are weak. They have no power of their own. It has been agreed to unconsciously by the people, as if someone sneaked into your bedroom and got you to sign a contract while you were still half-asleep. A sneaky, underhand way of gaining power from you to control you.

Of course, many will continue on with the status quo because they lack the awareness and self-responsibility to govern themselves. They will quite happily let someone else take charge. But that is not the way for many of us now. We have seen too much and can't go back. Even when the system punishes you in some way, you both know that the power is really in you, the individual, and not the system. The system is weak, even when it gets it's way, because at the end of the day, all it has is force in numbers.
