The Cerberus manifesto
Our world is on the brink of a catastrophe. This fact is
something anybody with reasonable intelligence can deduce when you factor in
our planets resources with our species exponential population growth which no
government in the world has done anything to slow, the fact that even though
every government know of our planets problems they still fight over fossil
fuels and archaic religious views thinking it will make them and their country
more powerful at the cost of other human lives which is only determined on
where they were born or what 'God' they worship.
We as a species are flawed and the state of the world is all
our own fault. We're hard wired to be selfish and long for individual power and
accomplishment which is by no means a flaw itself its when we put our own
individual accomplishments above others do we begin to fail as a race. Think
about every war that has ever been fought and 99% of the time the cause can be
traced to a single person where as you look at what we can accomplish when we
work together. Space flight, the splitting of the atom, the CERN super
collider, the international space station, the mapping of the human genome,
countless incredible achievements that has increased our understanding our
universe. Humanity is capable of absolutely horrendous crimes whether it be
greed or murder yet at the same time we are also capable of acts which are
beautiful, heart warming and can benefit everyone on our planet or just a single
person yet it are these acts which occur the fewer of the two which is a crime
in itself.
Unfortunately the reason we as a race is more inclined to
the negative traits we possess is due to several factors the main being the way
we are educated, our governments and the media.
The state of our education: From a young age we're taught
that we are all equal, that everyone learns the same and that we should all
follow the same doctrine of learning yet when we grow up we all realise that
were not all equal, that some of us are smarter and more deserving of a life to
live than others which again unfortunately is true. We're all taught in groups
which works as an average pulling up the weaker children which is fantastic but
it also holds back the strongest of us who can only get the best education as
long as they can afford it which if you don't believe is wrong then you won't
agree with anything else I have to say either so I would stop reading and move
on if I were you. This system also does everything it can to destroy a child's
individuality and make them conform to the way the others in society think and
if they don't then they are persecuted and treated like outsiders by the people
who will only amount to something inside their particular system, the need for
individuals is paramount as we need these people to break conformity and change
us as a race, change how we think and how we govern ourselves.
The state of our media: Turn to the news right now... and
look what you see is pain, suffering and the plight of our civilisation. At the
time of this writing there is a civil war in Syria, the making of a civil war
at best in the Ukraine and at worst what will become the beginning of world war
3, debates debates and debates about our economy which all ends the same way
with the rich getting richer and the poor becoming poorer and a debate on
whether global warming is real or not. Yet in the past few days a medical breakthrough
device that could help millions with high blood pressure is approved, an
outstanding act of kindness from strangers buying a terminally ill man a house
using crowd funding and a theory that dark matter is actually made up of miniature
black holes are all nowhere to be seen on any news channel. The media is
designed to in still fear, now that sounds paranoid yet the more we look at the
way the media saturates us all with targeted terror. Now this leads us to a
question with an answer that could be any number of options. The question is
why does the media in still fear more than any other type of news. Now this can
be because most news is terrifying and unfortunately terrible which supports my
argument that our race is more inclined to that side of our psyche than the
good side or it may be that the news(whether on purpose or inadvertently) is
just helping the governments of the world stay in power, which brings us too
our last topic.
Governments: I'm not an anarchist, we need order and we need
leadership. The problem with our government and most around the world is that
they are either overtly corrupt or corrupt without anyone including the
government itself even knowing. Governments are meant to put the interests of
their nations people first yet politicians follow the age old "I want
power" and trade favours between themselves and others on the
international stage to build their own power base while ignoring their core
responsibilities to their own people. The cause of this is the people in
government are there for power but they want power for powers sake not a means
to an end and even if a rare man or woman was to come to power with the vision
to help better a country for good they would still have to contend with other
views either from within their own political party or members of a rival party
who would undermine a good idea which they would more than likely agree with
just to further their own political agenda and build a powerbase, it's a system
that is flawed. We need a system where the power is given to someone who could
wield it and use it for the good of the people without having to worry about
upsetting others and contending with other back stabbing power hungry
politicians, this person would be highly intelligent and in a position that
they are known to the public yet did not serve them in a governmental capacity.
Ideally this person would be chosen by the peoples demand without actively
seeking their votes. Just imagine if the whole country voted for a popular
business man/woman or ranking military official who was in a position of trust
already but could take on the responsibilities of running a country. Just think
this person would have the support of the country yet no political ties or
previous promises, they would have been voted into power on trust and merit
alone. It's a romantic idea which may or may not work but it's not the idea
that's important, what is important is the point I'm trying to get across-
somebody who actively seeks power for powers sake should not be allowed to
wield that power in the name of others.
Those problems affect our race as a whole and it's something
that no country on earth has any idea how to solve and let's face it we're on
borrowed time here. Over population, food shortage, global warming, energy
crisis, the economy, war, disease..... unfortunately we could go on and on.
What this planet need and what our species needs is a guardian. Something to
protect every single one of us from the gates of hell. We need a Cerberus.
We cannot rely on the worlds governments like the UN or the
EU, they are made up of the same people who run our corrupt governments. No
this Cerberus has to be made from us. Normal people who will dedicate
themselves to the betterment of mankind. Educate yourself, encourage others to
be more environment friendly, take part in debates about governments and get
involved in the political process, learn how you can help others and build upon
what people have done before us. All of us are capable of incredible acts and
we have no idea of our potential, Albert Einstein worked as a patent clerk when
he was writing the theory of relativity which more than a century on is not
even taught in schools! Kicked out of school for being easily distracted, Thomas
Edison received only 3 months of formal schooling.
And it's not just the incredible people. Imagine what
people said when the idea that the world was round the first time they heard
it, imagine what people thought when they first saw a plane fly or witnessed
the moon landing. I don't think every single one of us is capable of these acts
but the fact that not all of us aim higher or try to build upon what has been
done is insane, we are all capable of limitless potential and we should not and
worse cannot accept a life with our reaching anymore. Anybody who believes we can
just work a 9-5 job and let a very few people change the world for the better around
us are kidding themselves and holding the rest of us back, our race can no
longer accommodate the weak and lazy. We need to pull together and we must work
together in order to put our race first. Support Cerberus, spread the message
through email, word of mouth, your arguments, social media, your actions,
anything and everything you do Cerberus is for humanity. Teach your children to
exceed their expectations and build upon what others have done before.
A dark time is coming
and humanity will be tested, we must ensure we are up to the task.
Cerberus stands for
humanity as the guardian of our future.
