When the Christian Europeans first sailed across the Atlantic Ocean, they carried with them their language and mental world of domination. Evidence of this is found in numerous Vatican decrees issued by various popes of the Catholic Church. Those documents presumed the right to establish Christian domination wherever it did not yet exist.
I remember having seen Eucalypto, directied by Mel Gibson (2006) - which struck me as a crafty mix of (bits of) truth and Hollywood, so to speak. It feeds into Hobbesian notions of premodern life being brutal, nasty and short (which it may have been at times). But the ending troubled me more, knowing that those 'saviour ships' were bringing boatloads (and mindsets) of trouble - an insight that is easily overwritten by the moment of relief within the composition.
Yes, in totalitarian times that [“End the Domination System.”] is an apt rallying cry! And I recommend Newcomb's (pre-covid) book "Pagans in a promised Land." Christianizing 'Turtle Island' (the Americas) being a previous Great Reset, in a manner of speaking (and thinking).
Yes.... the dominating civilization is a civilization of domination.... the domination is both internal and external ....
Thank you for your tremendously important work. Steve! The world is better from it.
May all beings be happy and free from this global system of domination!
So happy you are doing this, your voice is crucial to understanding what we face.
