Today, as I marched with many, many thousands of people on the streets of London, I thought, housing, feeding and giving a chance of new life to the Syrian refugees, is of course the right thing to do. It is the only humane thing to do. It is right to march and let our government know how we feel about the lack of help that is being given.
After all, let’s not be under any illusion as to who has created these refugees. It is our government and many other countries, controlled by the global elite.
But what is new about this situation? Not much, this is what the industrialised system has been so good at for 100’s of years. And what will change as a result of today?
There have been a lot of marches, a lot of petitions signed and what will come of these things?
Fundamentally, we need to make some deeper changes to a good many things in the world, if we are to stop the establishment continuing to do the same or worse without our consent.
I’m not for one minute suggesting to not march, or not to sign petitions, as these things are vital in making a protest and helping to raise issues. Without this, then there would be no hope. But they are not anywhere near enough it terms of bringing about real change.
Bloody revolutions are not what we need either, as surely as a human race, we have had enough killing. We do not want to replace one unfair and corrupt system, with another one that is of a different flavour.
However, to be truly successful in bringing about real change, we have to bypass this broken system, we have to stop supporting it, and we have to come together and build an alternative model. We need to start from scratch, we have to have a completely different model. One that creates a world for every member of the human race to be valued, not just a tiny select few.
What is mainly happening at the moment, is we are trying to fix this broken thing, that really is beyond repair. So we need to stop looking at how to fix what we have always done and dare to think about some completely new ways of doing things.
The best thing to come out of today for me, was a hope that there are enough people, who given an alternative world would be inspired by it, and would then go on to convince others to abandon ship for a new hope.
The industrialised world, that we have all been brainwashed to comply with, is dying, and now is the perfect time to build an alternative, rather than trying to patch up what we have always had.
A world for all not just a few.
