True, deep cultivation of ignorance and incompetence has as its reward the outcome of missing higher realities as a result of enslavement to various passions that distract and confuse us. There is a noticeably pivotal distinction between the barrenness of living in confusion, however unwittingly, and the attainment and immediate application of insight. I'd like to cordially remind everyone that only if we are able to sustain contact with reality for an appreciable measure of time can we then find true liberation from the tyranny of ignorance. Insight has as its reward the possibility of reorienting one on his path through life. Understanding of human life through the lens of the pervasive ocular imagery endemic (-native) to dystopia leads far too many astray into the never-never lands of blissful bitterness, a destination from which few return. Dystopia refers to an anti-utopia, or "an imaginary place where people lead dehumanized and often fearful lives”. Does pointlessly living in obtuse (-lacking sharpness or quickness of intellect) fear render some benefit I'm unaware of? Really? Information results in knowledge, and befittingly has power – since we act on it. Do all forms of power have potential for abuse? Certainly. Are any of us carrying that potentiality of guiltiness at any time? Certainly. That being said, what responsibility is intrinsic to one who abuses information exchange? Are we incapable of directly revealing information about reality without distortion? Must our individual visions of reality always be subject to approximations? I don't think so. The inescapably systematic organization of our knowledge will always reveal irresolvable conflicts within each of us, mostly because we prefer a world that succumbs to our presuppositions, as we find comfort there. I for one, find no comfort in ignorance, and am acutely aware of its reproductive multiplication factor. How do urban myths originate? Who can say. What purposes are served? You figure that one out. The only way to lead people is to show them a vision of where you're going and how you intend to get there, then hope they come along for the ride. (Ideology = a systematic body of concepts especially about human life or culture; the integrated assertions, theories and aims that constitute a sociopolitical program.) Nowadays people don't commit themselves to personal ideology, because they have none. Most are blown here and there, tossed by the wind. People uncommitted to personal ideologies are committed to other people thinking for them. This is the epitome of laziness, and it is quite unsettling to me.
