4. HUMANS WANT TO DIE Page 37 …with it, which is that to acknowledge that truth will actually result in the imagined hell becoming reality ... and that the only way they can save themselves from that hell is to, somehow, not be aware of their own reality as it is. So they must struggle mightily to not know what they indeed do know. Now, try that burden on for size. And just be glad that you are not them. They exist within that nightmare reality; they see it portrayed before and all around them. They are convinced we are living in it, too. So they have not even the respite, like watching a horror film, of ever walking out of the theater and thinking, “Well, I’m glad that was only a movie.” Hence, it is no coincidence that these sorry sorts are attracted to fantasies of denial, such as denying climate change, denying the Holo- caust, denying the atrocities committed by religions or their own governments. In striving to be shiny, happy people they create inner hells and outer monsters. Not only hell do they create, but many of the hellacious things on Earth are the offspring of these lives. For many suffer and die as a consequence of their fear-driven supreme efforts to bring their horrible reality into the actual world — the one we live in. Look to the wars and atrocities of all time, and you will see how much of it was perpetrated by people completely possessed by such horribly insane convictions.

Sympathy for the Bedeviled Simply look at the lives of these people and imagine those multitudes and the incredible pain, utter lovelessness, utterly miserable and confused minds they carry as adults. Then think beyond them to the many-fold more of the masses who have similar but lesser versions of lives and experiences as the “enraptured.” Add to that the incredible power of fear ... not only fear; but fear that has, well, demonically, been projected into the biggest expanse existing in the universe — that of the imagination and that of the Unknown, combined. If you can get a sense of that fear, even a small part, you will realize the utter terror that awakens them, that is there in the middle of the night as they approach consciousness, and which, like a squirming frog, inhabits, nay, becomes the daytime brain and thoughts of these people, and motivates them to do anything, anything at all, that might promise a snippet of relief. You will see that they believe in hell because they in fact live lives that are the closest things in existence to actual hells.

So it is that when a demagogue like Donald Trump gives word to their unrealities, their delusions, they are giddy with joy. For here is the chance to have their cooked-up mythologies confirmed, their defenses against the obvious redeemed, and for them to be justified for all the grief they cannot help but feel for having gone against the facts their whole lives. This is another reason they need to enlist other people in their untruths and have the media, in addition to Donald Trump, echo it: It adds to the reality of these lies ... the Big Lie repeated becomes more true ... and boosts their defense against, and attacks on, the truth of their reality which asserts itself over and over — “truth will out” — during their life and increasingly more as they get older. This also explains their behavior’s increasing rigidity with time and its downright obdurate nature when these folks become curmudgeons, so typical of the elderly. Sympathy for the Bedeviled Simply look at the lives of these people and imagine those multitudes and the incredible pain, utter lovelessness, utterly miserable and confused minds they carry as adults.

They will call themselves “blessed,” instead. No problem there. It’s their life, right? However, this sad insanity they impose on all and everyone. Of the actual pathetic nature of their lives they know intuitively but without letting themselves think it. That is not unlike the way they handle any of the other uncomfortable truths and “inconvenient” facts of their lives, by the way. They will similarly know intuitively the climate is going to shit, that Trump is a liar. Yet they’ll concoct another fantasy — they do it “instinctively” by now — like they have already done about their monster god and their lives come of their religious upbringings, that will affirm the opposite of the truth. “Alternative facts,” again. As psychohistorians would say it, they live in a “trance state.” There is no way really to get through to them. They also know in their muscles that saying the lie out, and loudly, can help in reinforcing their precious untruths. For these dear fabrica- tions, when heard coming from the outside — even if it is simply one’s own voice that one is hearing echoed back — have greater weight and… 4. HUMANS WANT TO DIE Page 35

4. HUMANS WANT TO DIE Page 35 …to be freed from the fear of torment of the most extreme form imaginable. Leave it to humans to be so cut off from the reality of a loving God as to wish to be dead instead. For they have managed, with their imagination running loose and totally without even one lifeline to anything loving or nice — either in their own life’s experiences or in the mythology of reality they have been forced to accept — to come up with the most unimaginably horrifying view of their lives, and its prospects. “Alternative Facts” So these sad bedeviled know deep inside how miserable they are. But they find a way to stave off the realization of that truth and of its horrific roots in their suffering in childhood, through denying their unhappiness. Fake smiles, “put on a happy face,” perfect grooming, spiffed up attire for church or persnickety duds for the office, to bely to oneself as well as others what they are really feeling, are habits after a while. Self-loathing and the tragedy of their lives is nipped in the bud with precise cuts and fastidious attention to the placement of every hair on their heads; perfumes and colognes cover any residual, however potentially liberating, discontent. They take up arms against their misery and engage in an endless battle trying desperately to believe ... and unfortunately for us, assert ... that the opposite is true: That is, that their experience is happy. They will call themselves “blessed,” instead.

For this father “god” will not just punish by merely ending your life but will persecute you in what has to be the most extreme kind of torture ever to be imagined — being forced to live forever but every moment of it being in extreme pain and suffering. And these folks have to somehow twist their brains into thinking this “god,” this monster, is actually loving rather than the obvious. Imagine the cognitive dissonance in that! Think, then, how motivated they are to rationalize their realities, regardless the warped facts and illusory perspectives come of that. En-Raptured’s Apocalyptic Death Wish The parents were forced to buy into that horrific view of the ultimate reality of it all when they were young. Then their kids slavishly followed them in this insanity. Is it any wonder then that their wish is to be dead!? So the reaction formation is that of creating the kind of life where, unlike their own childhood, they would be loved, cherished, seen, made to feel special, and so on. That’s your “heaven,” there, and the place to which they want to get through this Rapture thing. Most of all they want… I. APOCALYPSE AND INSANITY Page 34

I. APOCALYPSE AND INSANITY Page 34 …who think of it as the Rapture — a kind of being freed from what is seen as an onerous Earth existence and the reward of the true life one thinks one deserves of ease, love, and happiness in heaven. Now, is that not the most extreme form of reaction formation you have ever heard? These folks have developed an elaborate, comforting fantasy to escape the facts of their lives, which are, comparatively, not very happy. Gotta Love ‘im! He’s the ... Monster! These “enraptured” people are usually the ones come of the brutal parenting we are, generally speaking, trying to rise above in our society. Yet these folks, “for their own good,”1 were not “spared the rod.” Consequently, they were beaten into fawning upon the unreal wishes of their authoritarian parents — parents who themselves were sad religious delusionals whose lived world was an imaginary one of hellishness and a stern bearded father god who makes you say, even think, that he is loving, despite being the most horrendously mean and more-than-murderous mythical figure ever concocted.

Also, look around you in the cities or on the internet. The people you see have no concern, let alone awareness, of their dire predicament ... no urgency or apocalypse emergency. It is the veritable zombie apocalypse before us. It is no wonder that folks are enamored of this revolting image of walking dead people everywhere, which we see on the silver screen and which pervades our current cultural consciousness. Indeed, what we see surrounding us in the numbed and deadened responses to our apocalypse emergency is the most disturbing of any evidence I have seen supporting what Sigmund Freud called the death instinct, and others following him have dubbed Thanatos, and the Will to Die. More on that, coming up. EnRaptured Reaction Nonetheless, false bravado and zombification are the most insane responses to our situation with one glaring exception: That is, what we hear as being a euphoric longing for the end of it all in evangelical groups 4.

No, these other folks are actively blocking out the information that might counter their denial. Trump and his supporters could not be better examples of this current tendency to want to block out facts and substitute “alternative facts” — i.e., lies — to aid one in one’s denial. We have climate deniers now, who are going around saying we have no problem with global warming. No, they say, that is all a story by some bad folks who just want to control us. Donald Trump has currently become the epitome of this twisted thinking. To which I think, seriously, how convenient. How convenient to proclaim there is not a problem when the dilemma if faced would seem hopeless. How easy, then, to scratch away, rummaging for snippets, misconstructions of facts, words taken out of context, and the delusionary fabrications of others doing the same to concoct a conspiracy that would get oneself, and one’s conscience, off the hook. More than that, which would rationalize our current tendencies, wrought of our flawed upbringings, to brutalize and rape the Earth, extracting all we can for our own benefit, consequences be damned. Is it not obvious these folks are engaging in desperate wish fulfillment?

“...while we watched with paralyzed hand on one side, on the other our lesser selves are presently taking us on a path that leads inevitably, to ... total life extinction on this planet, and possibly even to planetary annihilation — the destruction of this planet itself.” In our look at the irrational responses and reactions humans are currently having to the end of all time, let us first consider the obvious: Denial. Inner denial and its outward companion, false bravado. The Zombie Apocalypse People put up fronts of false bravado — “tough guy”-ness — to defend against their apocalyptic fears. But to do so they need to deaden themselves to the facts. They are not just “compartmentalizing,” which many of us do. For it is virtually impossible to function while taking in the…
