Silence of the Wolves by Zachary L. Goldstein

I am one of the keenest people watchers that ever lived. I see the patterns of history as a grey haze upon the consciousness of all humanity. We observe, but we do not learn. Always so pretentious are the whims of Man. I believe that morality comes from within and no religious doctrine or ancient philosopher has been able to convince me otherwise.

I detest modern society. Have you ever asked yourself why you are in college? Perhaps you wish to educate yourself--to learn something, is that it? So you pay all this money to sit in a classroom and listen to someone talk about the world. Whole generations wasted practicing theory instead of actually living out the experience. So once you are done, and once you have that silly piece of paper, will that make you happy? Would you feel vindicated, then? Validated? Were you not educated the day before you got your degree?

Do you realize that human beings have essentially no right whatsoever to pave the earth, tear down her trees, mine her oceans and lakebeds like a sadistic vampire until we've had our greedy fill?

Marxism in theory is close to perfect; in practice, a complete disaster. Capitalism in theory is hell on earth, and in practice it is far, far more perilous than that. Greed reigns upon us now. We must find another way.

Think about the system. Think about banks. You are forced to let them "hold on" to your (fake, intangible) currency in order so as to establish credit. You must establish good credit in order to buy a car, get a home loan, and pretty soon, to brush your teeth. Meanwhile we have people in New York and elsewhere trading commodities which only exist in the electronic world. The entire system is built upon debt. Now, here's the most frightening part. If all debts were paid, there would be no more money left. This is not a healthy way to conduct a society.

The social contract is an assumed, pre-arranged and retroactive agreement between you and the state/government entity. But don't you see, they only have power because we allow it. It's all puppets and illusions. Prisons only exist to provide the illusion that courts and law enforcement is effective. In reality, the position of authority is the most prosperous criminal position available. And the cops and the judges all know that.

Back to the social contract, me feeling as dissolutioned as I am, I can only imagine what it's like for you, dear female, reading these words back to yourself. In reality, no matter what the church would have you think, it is because of organized religion and because of men that history is filled with things so horrible that no waking being could truly know of it all and still remain sane. The contract is misogynistic in the extreme.

I firmly believe that if women ran the world, there would be no war, no torture, no starvation and no imposed morality. Women are the nurturing force of the universe, far more understanding and far more sympathetic than the minds of men could ever hope to be. You are more protective of life. If I were to create a society, I would make the army and the police force the same thing. I would also make it all-female.

No, this is not some misguided adolescent fantasy of mine. I am a student of history. The original prize for the invading all-male army since prehistoric times was rape and pillage. Sadistic rape I believe to be largely foreign in the hearts and minds of women. An all-female army would be far more likely to protect the populace and far less likely to turn against it.

Are you comfortable in your reality? You think you've got it all figured out? All that you know, everything you believe is a function of what you have been taught. But what if what you have been taught is a lie? Ever wondered why racism still exists? Parents pass it along to their children until it is ingrained in the culture like an insidious disease dividing and enslaving the minds of human beings. You see, the biggest problem with society is that young children are not taught to question what they are taught. Their minds are young and fragile and too often they are poisoned before they know the difference. It makes me sick.

Truth is, the government does not want a vast majority of the populace to be educated on their own terms. An ignorant society is more malleable and therefore far easier to manipulate. Cite George W. Bush's policies and unjust wars as an example of this menacing epidemic. I fear we are in danger of becoming an idiocracy.

I'm sure you've been told to guard the fences so the wolves can't get in. Trust me, foreign wolves and devils should be the least of your concerns, brave female. Instead, tend to the sheep behind your own fences. The wolves may be closer than you think. And when they come, and come they shall, what will you do? We will have to make the choice. Fight back as wolves or die quietly as unto the silence of the lambs before the slaughter. So which are you, the wolf or the lamb?
