I see this as the hardest of all of the concepts held within the VP project for man common or otherwise to learn and take up.
Well at first it will be for sure, as we are extremely selfish in our modern world. The polar opposite exists in what we have come to know as a 3rd world country.
GIVING UP DECISIONS TO MACHINES.
The illusion of free choice and free will lets us make up our own minds and we quite literally do what ever we want or what ever we think we can get away with at any given time.
Imagine if you will, hypothetically speaking of course, putting your finger into you current pc at home and having it tell you what you needed for dinner. After analysing your blood it relays to you that you would benefit from a fish meal tonight. Even though you want a steak. Would you eat the fish?
What if you wanted chocolate cake and it replied no you would benefit more from eating a salad for this meal. Would you eat the salad?
These and things like it are what most confuse for HUMAN NATURE. In reality this idea of 'what I want' has been breed into you/me/us and is NOT human nature. I see this thrown around too much. There is no human nature other than to copy our parents until we learn to do for ourselves. But by then although it feels natural and normal we are still nothing more than a product of the world around us. The information contained within the Zeitgeist Movement's video's is quite true and correct. ALL this 'my choice' stuff is a product of the environment you were raised. It is indeed learned.
If I were from a poverty stricken country and suddenly taken to a VP styled city where I put my finger into a slot on a computer and it told me what I NEEDED for dinner I would eat it. I would not think, nah stuff that I want pizza.
We learn to be selfish, self centered, demanding because we are spoilt for choice.
If you are talking to someone new about Zeitgeist and The Venus Project be sure to make them understand this fact. But understand it in a way that it is not the removal of choice as ALL options are available but not ALL are necessary all the time. Your good health is paramount to the greater good of the community.
The false idea of free choice with regard to food fuels the machine and feeds the rich and so called elite that sit atop the pyramid while they in turn get catered to by nutritionists and chefs... think about it next time you stuff that greasy pizza down your throat.
You get sick, need help and the machine rolls on. On and over you just like it will your children and your grand children if we don't change it.
NOW.
ps. We need to totally adopt that word "UNHUMAN" like we do 'UnAustralian' as this will enhance the idea that we are all one. No country, but one planet.
