The cornerstone in our society is Information and Truth. With avenues such as Internet and Digital Video Recorders for televisions, Information is not only almost freely available, but it’s there for the taking, ripe, ready to eat, and choke on if you don’t have the right sources. I’m not sure how many times I’ve hinted toward, or even flat out said, both in blog and conversation: “American media is full of shit, has been full of shit for decades, and I blame Time Warner and Viacom”.

The influence that the media has over people is ridiculous; creating hundreds and hundreds of sheep every day, feeding you lie after lie… all the while, using their “credibility” as method for creating fact. The good news is, this all relies on a system, and the structure of that system; and this system existed before the Internet. Slowly, the mass media mind-job is beginning to break down, but, not nearly far enough. Here’s the problem:

The System:

• Mass Media
• Politicians
• Religious Groups
• Large Corporations
• Secret Societies

Before you all go fucking nuts because I mentioned Secret Societies: Free Masons, IOOF, Skull and Bones. It is no mystery that these organizations exist. It is no mystery that the Skull and Bones, literally, invented the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). It is no mystery that Masonic orders and their members not only formed this Nation’s Constitution, but also influenced the enforcement of it, and have been a part of the System they created ever since.

There are two subsections to these bullet points. Subsection one is “Power” and the second subsection is “Communication”. This isn’t some conspiracy theorist jargon, this is simple fact. Communication is Mass Media and Religious Groups. Power is Large Corporations, Secret Societies, and Politicians (in order from most influential to least)… think I’m “off” about the Politicians being the weakest link? Go look up what a Lobbyist is, and dig for who the “big players” work for, then look to see if they belong to a Masonic order (good luck with part two of that assignment).

Thus, the two most powerful parts of this nation are Large Corporations and Mass Media. Take a company like Time Warner. A massive corporation that is not only vast in their business, but also a media mega-machine. Now all you have to do is figure in this; when they report, how much is true? Hell… how much of it has to be true? I’d say just enough to ensure their credibility stays afloat; and if you’re not being ethically sound, providing misinformation, or doing the “cover up” everyone is always suspecting; simply gain credibility by using the one system you have the most control over.

More media.

I’m not sure if anyone actually watches Fox News, or believes the Associated Press anymore, but if you’re reading this blog and you do believe those two clusterfucks, chances are you’re either working for the government, or hoping to god you can catch me in a “whoops” and say “SEE! He’s not right!”

Well to keep the government on their toes, I guess I can say this, “Stop doing your job; you’re no good at it… If it were up to me, I would be the first one in line to stand up a new replacement system that over throws your shitty government; don’t worry though, it would still be a democracy”.

I don’t really give a rat’s ass about the people looking for the “whoops”. Enough of that for now; let’s talk Media.

It is completely feasible for misinformation to hit your eyes and ears every time you hear “this just in”; it is completely feasible for you to be lied to, and for large scale cover-ups to take place, every day. It has happened, it will happen again, and I’m pretty damn sure something happened in Washington D.C. today that will affect your life down the road, negatively, that we don’t even know about since it never made it out to the Newsroom… God knows where the information stops… OH! At the boardroom.

Well, what do you do with a system that’s so polluted, but so believed?

I’ve been plugging this site all day, and all weekend, and will continue to do so until my fingers are callused, bleeding, or worse – little nubs attached to knuckles. I’ve NEVER boasted about a news source, I’ve NEVER talked up a media source, and I’ve NEVER promoted a site that I didn’t create… Until now. NewsMata.com is the source for Truth on the Internet. Literal, unfiltered, uncut Truth on tap. For those of you into Philosophy, you know what the capital T in Truth means… Anyhow, basically this site gathers news stories from the global news conglomerate, and clusters them together based on relevance; to allow you to see the same story as it’s written by every available news source.

Funny, you’d think that this idea would have been thought of already and even more so… that the news from all over the world about the same exact story wouldn’t really be all that different… But here’s a good “down to earth” example for you. Find a police officer and ask them this, “at the scene of a crime, with lots of eye witnesses, how many versions of ‘what happened’ do you get?”… Let me know if you find an officer that can say “just one”. Then go find a lawyer, and ask them, “how many rock solid cases did you have, where there were dozens of witnesses willing to testify, and it still didn’t go your way due to credibility?” They’ll have an example, if they’ve been out of college long enough. It’s an age old story, happens all the time… These are facts.

Eye witness accounts are pretty much worthless nowadays; and it’s gotten to a point where video evidence doesn’t even work all the time. In fact, facts aren’t deciding factors in trials, credibility is. Same premise, pointed toward the Media and your news sources. Take for example Google News, Fox News – especially, the Associated Press, CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC… and put them on trial. Don’t stop there though; there are over 400 news sources at NewsMata.com; compare, contrast, and see for yourself the very thing I’ve been harping about over and over and over again.

Countless times, I’ve been called a conspiracy theorist, which in itself is a stupid ass term, reserved, I think, for the people that think ALIENS are responsible for 9/11; and I mean the fucking slimy green ones from outer space. So finally, proof to all my ranting about how fucked up the system most of you are trapped within. You, sitting there, reading my words, are finally equipped with the truth, in an easy to read, open discussion, web 2.0 site that’ll inform you, give you knowledge, and allow you to formulate your own opinion, instead of just swallowing the one Ted Turner wants you to choke on while he sucks the activist out of you through your eye sockets.

Good thing is; at this point, I’ve told you everything you need to know to see the truth for what it is, you have it, right here, right now, it’s available to you… and those of you that are too caught up, and want to take the blue pill? Go right ahead and get left behind while the rest of us intelligent people take your boss’s jobs, and get to a point to fire your sorry asses for being worthless, mindless zombies.

In order for a good basis for a fundamental philosophically themed argument, such as this, to be established; a few assumptions need to be made, but not just provided… explained and given.

First, the assumption about time. Since time is a unit of measurement that is intangible, but assumed by man, to make sense of things and keep track of cycles, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries, millenniums… are all facts and items in our day to day vocabulary, but much like “run” in its noun form they don’t actually exist as a tangible object, but as a representation of a witnessed event that is obvious. “Run” is different in that it is executed by someone or something, and can be performed and stopped at will of what or who is in control of that action, as opposed to time, which simply is. In stating that, we can conclude that time isn’t an action or thing, nor does the word “time” itself actually represent a tangible, logical, item or action that can be imagined or pictured. But we, as humans, can logically determine, through the association of our understanding of time, that there is a past, there will be a future and the few seconds that our mind processes our short term memory could be presumably called the present. As a result, even though it is intangible, and the word itself carries very little meaning outside of the understanding of the English language, Time exists, in that we understand the concept of what it represents.

Second, an assumption about eternity. In order for us to understand what eternity and infinity actually are, we can look to the stars. Space is the only tangible form we have of infinity. Not that we can touch it, but that we are in it, and we can look up every day and night and see it. To analyze, briefly, the differences between eternity and infinity, infinity is a mathematical term used to represent eternity, wherein eternity is more for usage with the representation of time, and infinity would more or less be representative of space, for use within this article anyhow. Hence the interweaving of the two terms as though they are one in the same, when in fact they are merely synonymous, but only for what they represent. What do they represent? They represent the span of an item that is too vastly inconclusive for man’s primitive mind to fully understand, and is thus, never-ending, never beginning.

The third part, creation, and in no terms do I mean “Creation” where in there is going to be biblical fall-backs onto some story from Genesis, or other book of religious significance, that really holds no bearing over what is actual. Creation, in terms of how most people think of it, is making something, or someone, for the matter of this writing. In order to create an object, or even a person, something needs to be used as a material to first start, then other materials to then finish, whatever it is that is being created. Even if it is something such as nitrogen atom, energy needed to come together at some point to generate that core element, and a charge needed to be applied or triggered in order for it to properly become a nitrogen atom. Though this isn’t an assumption, as much as it is a derivative, something must be created from something else. For those religious fanatics that are out there - even you can agree that Adam was created from something else, its in the Bible, go look it up.

So we have time, eternity, and creation. The three things that make up existence. Time, in that we are here, now, and have been here then, and will be here later. Eternity, in that existence itself is the representation of what is, what was, and what will be. Creation in the representation of what has been here, what is here, and what will be here. What, how and when we got here can be derived from these three factors of existence as well.

………………

Creation; everything that is here today was and is begotten from one source prior. Be it, energy, proteins, spare parts, or raw materials. In that regard, all things here have been here for all time, and thus, are simply compiled at this moment to exist as they are now, and later will be something else again at a later point in time for all of eternity. We do not know how we came to be, but we can attempt to explain it via stories, assumptions and research. When all we are searching for is the details for the obvious, which is, we are, and we started from everything that is… There will be a time in the future when we are not here, and we do not exist, but the components of what make us are will be, and will continue on after. In that, you can think about where energy comes from, and where it goes once you are no more… and start to derive what you might think I’d say about afterlife.

In any successful relationship, there’s a natural balance between two people. This balance, though not literal, could be represented by a balance scale - where in each person stands on their respective side, and then articles of that relationship can be weighed in. For example; take “Joe” he’s a stalker. Put him on a scale with who he’s stalking, we’ll call her “Jane” (Joe:Jane), and relationship items would look like this:

Thoughtfulness (100:0)
Emotional Attachment (100:0)
Attentiveness (100:0)
Appreciation (100:0)

Since Joe, here, is acting on impulses, regardless of reaction from Jane, he simply takes on every other aspect of his “relations” with Jane; and compensates (within his brain) for her lack of input. This is an extreme case, and not quite a relationship; considering stalkers are one sided psychopaths that don’t need any input from others to established … feelings, if you can even call’m that. But apply this to a successful relationship. Joe’s awesome and into Jane, Jane loves Joe with everything.

Thoughtfulness (50:50)
Emotional Attachment (45:55)
Attentiveness (55:45)
Appreciation (50:50)

Since Jane’s more emotional about things and Joe is given more opportunities to be attentive to her emotional states; including her attachment to him - he gets to the slightly more attentive one. Most males are more attentive (brain) than emotional (heart) anyhow; its no surprise that women are emotional, driven by hormonal shifts and have been even given a bad wrap, more often than not, for being illogical and irrationally controlled by them at least a week a month. In actuality, some women are controlled by their emotions and do act irrationally. God forbid if you ever have to handle one of these…

So; with that in mind you can imagine why relationships will fail. if the input isn’t 100% combined, then compensation will begin one way or the other. Example: Joe’s less attentive toward Jane for some reason; perhaps his attentiveness has been redirected to the new secretary at work. First off, if this happens, there’s another problem - being satisfied in his current relationship; or at least feeling as though he’s getting back what he’s putting into his relationship. There are two reason’s people start to stray from their responsibilities in a relationship; either the fault of themselves, or their mate.

Regardless, Joe’s attentive score within his relationship is now (35); and Jane recognizes this and tries to compensate by being inquisitive about what he’s doing and she starts to pay attention to his actions and actually overshoots the attention to his actions. Jane (75).
What you have now is (35:75); for you math inept, that’s 110, and chances are Jane’s not going to ease off if Joe’s pushing away, after all her emotional attachment rating is probably fluctuating as a result as well as Joe’s is becoming more distant, as is Thoughtfulness and Appreciation is definitely slipping:

Thoughtfulness (40:60)
Emotional Attachment (35:65)
Attentiveness (35:75)
Appreciation (35:65)

No matter how it’s scaled; there are a number of problems that are occurring. Once you have anything that measures outside of the 60/40 range you’re in trouble. And if you have something that’s over balanced, it will smooth itself out and cause more troubles. “Attentiveness (25:75)” for example; meaning Joe’s thinking about Secretary AS much as Jane now, and its only a matter of time before the domino effect gets into full swing, and:

Thoughtfulness (25:75)
Emotional Attachment (20:80)
Attentiveness (20:80)
Appreciation (20:80)

At this point you have someone that’s more that likely being cheated on; and though this is a specific case, there are many things that can cause this balance shift - “faithfulness” is the easiest subject to attack, since most people can relate to it. Most people, regardless of sex, will do one of two things in this situation; get angry and seek results, if they’re in over their heads on the output they’re giving without receiving any feedback - or they’ll simply make excuses for themselves and continue to compensate and over-compensate, pushing their “significant other” farther away, while allowing them to get away with whatever it is they’re doing to distance themselves from the person they supposedly are with.

Some people do both; they get pissed off and know what’s going on, but are strong enough and intelligent enough to ease the relationship back into balance using things such as forgiveness, guilt, judgment, and flat out punishment. Depending on how much these things are used will determine where the balance ends up; if it doesn’t completely break down entirely.

Anyhow, Joe and Jane, they started out with the best intentions toward each other, but what might have happened? All infidelity comes from a single point in any relationship, and it usually is present from the very beginning; Jane wasn’t what Joe really wanted or pictured himself with; Joe’s lower ranking in emotional attachment from the start was a result of him not really wanting to fully commit, and thus was more attentive to Jane - to see when and where he could make his break and start to look elsewhere… there’s countless things that could do this; but for my example we’ll go with the latter.

Actually, instead of turning this into a “how cheaters become cheaters” blog, here’s a few tips on how to make adjustments properly and a huge tip that will help everyone in a struggling relationship…

Huge Tip: If your relationship is on the rocks, its going to take communication and time… separately. If you don’t give the other person time to be their own person, you’re going to lose; and even more so, if the time has come to talk things out and all you can do is be upset and fly off the handle? You’re only going to push them away again… if you do that it’s probably what you want anyhow. Since you’re too frustrated with “what they’ve done to you” to actually want to repair anything, you just want them to know how you feel at that point - and that’s simply selfish. Regardless of what you think; selfish acts of emotional expression, no matter how good they feel at the time, cause irreparable emotional scars on yourself more than them. From a guy’s point of view; if someone’s getting heated over a situation or coming out of left field with something… you’re now a psycho that I can definitely live without. (so to speak)

How to adjust the balance: The numbers in my example aren’t a literal; and neither are the measurements. I mean, if I could sit here and label all the items involved in the balance between two people… well… lets just say that’d take too much space and time to compile that list. But, not literal… there’s no set number of “what needs to be done”; the speed of the relationship doesn’t always have to be 60mph, it can be 10mph and still be at a (50:50) or close enough to it. Think of the ratios as a percentage of the whole. The “Whole” is whatever arbitrary number you want it to be; or whatever it is measured, if you can do that.

Try to work with each other to make adjustments in the “Whole”. If Joe slows things down, then Jane should as well. If Jane doesn’t understand why, then TIME and COMMUNICATION have to be factors, give it time - for when talk is ready.

How to not make adjustments: If Joe is taking the speed of things from 50mph to 20mph, Jane might want to over compensate for that by taking her speed from 50mph to 80mph and just drive into a brick wall with Joe. This is what I call the catastrophic relationship traffic accident.

Good news is, people survive even the ugliest of traffic accidents; real life & metaphorically in relationships. Its all about how you recover. Unfortunately, the brutally ugly reality of things is; sometimes one person survives and the other doesn’t… in terms of relationship; this is what happens when being cheated on is moved into the equation… loyalty and trust issues fuck everything up.
