Question:

With the intellectual tools given you in this blog, How can you identify the person on our side who is not only not doing anything, but is a roadblock to anything being done?

I wonder if ANYBODY will get this one?

By now, the answer should occur to you quickly, if you have learned this way of THINKING.

The first rule any interrogator takes as basic if that a personn who talks about something all the time is obsessed with it.

We know that for a normal person,being accused of HATE is kind of odd. He simply doesn’t consider naked hate to be a fundamental human motivation. So the person who is constantly accusing people of Hate! is consumed with hatred.

That’s a simple ABC of human motivation. If that doesn’t occur to you when you hear a person saying anyone who disagrees with him is a Hater, you are a dodo in the field of human motivation.

The hater keeps denouncing hate to cover the fact that he is consumed by it. So what will the person who is coering the fact that he is whining and doing nothing cover his own in ACTION. Note the capitalized word. That is the last hint I am going to give you.

Answer:

The hater talks about hate. The winner talks about ACTION. No, he is not going to go to a newsroup and hit them with Bob’s Mantra, but not because he is lazy and wants to spend his time whining. Oh, no! He is as free of inaction as the guy who denounces Hate all the time is of hate.

He is not just a talker, he is a DOER. He is going to get out there and overthrow the government.

Someday.

In the meantime, just as the hater accuses everybody else of Hate, the inert person accuses everybody else of inaction. Our problem is not that HE is sitting there whining. Our problem is that everybody else is not marching with him and overthrowing the whole system in one instant movement.

An old campaigner friend of mine showed me clearly that he was about to quit. He id it by constantly talking about how strong the enemy was, and how if people would do what he wanted to do the whole system would be gone tomorrow.

I keep hitting on this point from many directions. I have pointed out that nothing is more provincial than a universalist, who denounces “tribalism” and says he is above all that. I have pointed out that there a million Universal Truths and they are still multipying like cancers. Like the whiner who is alway urging “ACTION,” the universalist is always saying that if everybody adopted HIS universal truth, all mankind would be united. The ACTION whiner is saying that if everybody took his action right now, the revolution would be accomplished.

Meawhile, back on earth, there are only a few races and there are a million Universal Truths and counting. There is an endless supply of people who insist that if everybody acted at once, there would be no further need for action.

If someone talks about Hate alll the time, he is a hater. If someone talks about ACTION all the time, it is a cover for his own inertness. If someone keeps repeating, “It’s not race” he means it’s about race. And if someone keeps saying, “It’s not about money” or “It’s ALL about money” keep your hand firmly on your wallet.
