LARGE GROUP AWARENESS TRAINING IN RADICAL THERAPY FOR VICTIMS OF LEGAL
AND GOVERNMENT ABUSE
by David Grossack
More people are beginning to realize that in every respect we all live
on what can best called a "Global Plantation," based on social systems
in which those who control resources and wealth of the world are
perpetrators of large scale legal and government abuse that serves to
perpetuate rule by elites. Further, what many people do not realize is
that aside from the war, pollution, epidemics, and poverty, the social
systems imposed upon us by the elites produce emotional sickness.
They produce psychological depression, anxiety, substance abuse,
sexual problems, obesity, and many other forms of disturbance that
plague millions of people across the globe.
The mechanisms for this are quite simple. The stress of living in
highly regulated societies, with a predatory legal system results in a
population which reflects the mental conditions of wounded, exploited,
and bullied people. Moreover, we are tracked and watched through
computers, and increasingly the entire industrialized world is being
videotaped and monitored constantly. This is the beginning of a
dehumanization process to which will alienate us from our individual
nature and reduce us to cogs of production wheels in their factories,
offices and other companies.
The disturbances may come about from being a party in a long,
protracted, and ugly lawsuit. This now afflicts millions of people in
the United States.
The disturbance may come about from a random IRS audit (or several of
them!)
The disturbance may come about through extortion by a bureaucrat, or
false arrest, or "forfeiture of assets", because a stranger used your
property for an allegedly criminal purpose.
Marriages are torn apart by the stress of coping with the abuses of
government and the legal system, relationships with friends, relatives,
children, and the ability to enjoy life can be twisted inside out.
Our potential to live happy, productive, and fulfilled lives is being
robbed from us every day by a malignant and parasitic class of lawyers,
judges, and government officials who are in their essence second tier
masters on the Global Plantation.
We are the victims.
But too few people realize the victimization becomes a psychological
problem, that is, a problem that affects your mind and your behavior.
Once they rob us of our peace of mind and dignity, once they make us
sick, we need a healing process.
I believe, as do many mental health professionals, that the most
effective therapy for emotional disturbance caused by government and
legal abuse is radical and militant activism directed against its
sources, wherever that may lead.
What do I mean by "radical activism." I refer to picketing,
demonstrations, sit-ins, organizing public communications, and in
general the kind of conduct that transforms society, produces changes,
and puts the wrongdoers on the defensive.
When you suffer in silence, when you allow the wrongs to stand without
seeking redress and accountability, when you avoid demanding justice,
you have become part of the problem.
You have told yourself that you will set aside reclaiming your dignity
and demanding justice for whatever reason. But you have essentially
betrayed yourself and accepted being a victim. That cannot possibly be
an emotionally healthy decision. It is also likely to produce serious
physiological symptoms over time.
Hours of traditional psychoanalysis will not ever be as therapeutic as
organizing a picket line.
Prescription anti-depressants may help, but they are only masking the
source of the problem.
Some people feel self-conscious about being in public. Others feel
they ought to pray for those that hurt them. These thoughts are, in
effect, self-destructive as they serve to perpetuate the
victimization..
To where do we trace the origins of our problems?
On a daily basis, the face of the Global Plantation deceives. While a
policeman, lawyer, or government functionary may appear to be
oppressive, and can certainly act accordingly, the Phaoronic
pyramidical structure of the "System" leads upwards.
But the string pullers behind events are not always transparent. The
identification and role of power elites in the United States as well as
in al other countries has become a subject of both academic and popular
focus. Because the power elites play such a significant and arguably
destructive role, and have earned the legitimate wrath of billions of
people, the activism we prescribe need be directed, at least in part,
at them.
They are the foundation heads, media moguls, and political power
brokers. They are the controllers of multinational conglomerates,
financiers of major political parties, and intelligence czars. They
are the folks who own and govern the Global Plantation at the highest
levels.
They are formidable adversaries and they will break the law and
perjure and murder and conspire and never be held accountable except by
the people. They , for all practical purposes , own the courts. The
policies of local judges are directed through large institutional think
tanks in Virginia, Washington D.C. and Santa Barbara, California, not
at the grassroots.
To those who shy away from rebellion, I say you are going to miss the
greatest of human endeavors, and your illness will remain. To those
who want to be healed, get a sign, get a pen or go to your computer or
fax machine, and start agitating.
There is a process for launching this on a massive scale that the
legal reform movement needs to consider, right now, today, to win back
our Constitutional freedoms and rights,.
I believe large scale awareness training, such as the techniques used
in the human potential movement, are of immense value. There is a
branch of psychology known as radical therapy which must be utilized
where people resolve the psychological wounds to them by becoming
activists. I am beginning this process to deal with the retaliation
brought to my household for exercising First Amendment rights. The
world cannot wait for business as usual to solve these problems and we
have a mission, a burden to use evangelical terms. To turn their
System upside down. The tools are there, money will not be a problem,
and we will produce thousands of activists with a heightened
consciousness to take on the Establishment.
I want to do this project. As the son of a radical psychologist and
as a lawyer activist for may years I believe I am qualified. If we
work together, we can change the system and heal ourselves in the
process.
