It's getting progressively harder to keep to the path between the pillars, especially as the left and right wing propaganda machines keep churning out divisive content. For my part, it would be easier to ignore, as I have in the past, except that the powers-that-be are hellbent on mandating me to do things that I really don't want to do.
I've been meditating on Geburah, the qabalistic sphere of power, severity, and fear, lately. The negative power, Golohab, can include serious spiritual elitism, to the point that people who are considered "lesser" are thought of as being willfully blind and even worthy of destruction. I feel that extreme elements of the Left wing of our government are starting to feel the influence of the Burners.
If Progress is a religion, after all, there is no reason that it shouldn't have the same risks as other religions, and the elitism of our scientist/priests and their sycophants is surely on full display right now. You can see it in the way that the media mocked the death of a religious man who died from Covid after publicly renouncing the vaccines. One would be forgiven for getting the impression that a lot of our elite class would happy to see everyone who doesn't want their experimental drug suffer the same fate. One must not deny the sacraments or violate the taboos of their godless Church, after all.
A lot of right wingers seem to have the same feeling of superiority and desire to injure and kill their opponents, although they lack the faith in the Left's dying institutions. For them, I get the sense that most of them would rather the government piss off and let them live their lives, which is the one thing the government doesn't seem to be capable of doing right now.
I'm in the hollowed-out middle ground, which I came to occupy by daring to question the wisdom and authority of a group of people I sort of half ass believed in for awhile, before the charade of the Democrats being a group of decent people who were hamstrung by the evil Republicans came crashing down. From a qabalistic standpoint, the middle is exactly where I should be, but I'm feeling pulled more and more into a harder stance and position, just by refusing to cede ground to the insanity unfolding around me.
