The libertarian perspective considers the use of force against other human beings with great caution. And I respect this perspective as intelligent and beautiful. There are many humans who are forcing others against their will. A primary aspect of a Good Messiah or King is that they lead without force because their supporters willingly choose to participate. Our linguistic programming of the modern era encourages us to believe that Kings, Dictators, and Emperors use force to maintain their power and control. And this is an understandable artifact of our language system because many Kings did in fact use force to maintain their power and control. I encourage you to imagine Kings and Queens who deserve celebrity status because of their qualities and characteristics. And I suggest that one characteristic is the libertarian perspective which practices and advocates tolerance.
In order to better see how the libertarian perspective is intelligent and beautiful we must investigate the alternative and understand its flaws. The alternative perspective is the idea that people should be forced to behave in a certain way. The "way" is important to consider because there are always people who believe in one way that is very different than your own way. And in this inevitable predicament we find ourselves in with different people and different ways we can begin to see that intolerance leads to inevitable war. Consider the people who strap on bombs and kill innocent infants because they do not have the tolerant libertarian way. Consider the people who drop bombs from the sky and kill innocent infants because they do not have the tolerant libertarian way. Consider the people who arrest non-violent rule breakers and put them in cages because they do not have the tolerant libertarian way. War is inevitable if you are an intolerant human being.
I now encourage you to consider more indirect forms of intolerance. The lethal warriors who kill innocent people are the most obvious archetypes. But how do those warriors end up existing in the first place? There are certainly causes which lead to effects. And I find that most if not all people are indirectly responsible for the deaths of innocent people because they do not practice nor advocate for tolerance.
What does tolerance look like in the modern era? This is what an Idiot Messiah must teach to the body of humans trying to do good work on Earth. The first thing you can do is stop voting for intolerant people. The people who want to make rules and laws are by definition intolerant people. So I suggest that we move away from rules and laws toward principles, guidelines, and suggestions. You could vote for me as a write-in candidate or any other person who advocates for loving leaders with communities that coexist in maximally and mutually beneficial relationships. Doing so will help to educate more people about the libertarian philosophy. Fear of change is natural and important. I do not suggest that we remove working practices like trial by jury of peers. And I do not suggest that we move with haste to make big changes quickly. This is a gradual and organic process that must occur in relationship to the hearts and minds of the people. Angels don't need government. And I know that our species is not talented in the art of creating angels. But as we learn the science of raising human infants into mature angels we will see the government's power gradually decline. And this is where I see the beauty.
I am not upholding a philosophy which I seek to force on anyone. You are always free to leave my company. But I am upholding a loving approach which invites the best among us into an organization that transforms this world. I will stand up for the things which I know is right. And I will listen to people who question my authority because I am just a human like you who is not perfect. The only thing I claim is that I care more about peace on Earth than any other person I have ever met in life.
