The Law of Large Systems
The first thing every large, authoritarian and controlling system must do is identify threats. And if a threat is not innately co-opted, it must be co-opted or eliminated.
Every large system is an anti-feminine facsimilie of male genitalia, worshipped in memoriam - the magic wand, the cheap trick, its social organization is not poetry or faith or courts, but magic - coalescion of wealth, globalism, the worship and belonging to it, to the necessity of war, the sacrifice of outsiders, to dominion or death.
Large systems are procreative (breeding ever more control of life and living under a single, central growth curve), whereas inner, intellectual, spiritual life - poetry, art, the Word, the local and divine - is anathematic. Though appreciated in the name of free will, local, natural, divine will and rule of law is held apart from controlled mass-adoption, because it is original and originality cannot be mass-produced, only defrauded.
Empire is the entropic culmination of large systems - producing, consuming, exhausting, decaying, then collapsing - to reset and level will to power and particle physics under natural and divine law.
Every empire became ordained by society, not through faith, but religion and government. Religion and government, even as education, becomes indoctrination under large systems. Education is not inherently evil, but can be, is and has been, through industrial-scale implementation.
Will => thought => intention => action => reality. Large systems implement this implication at a top-down, macro level, embodying industrial, technological, economic, totalitarian, but not spiritual achievement. Spirit is a humble, individual seeking, whereas power is a grasping, or simply abiding on the part of every unwitting citizen of it.
Under empire, spiritual freedom from power and material obligation is transmuted as poverty by implication. Poor in spirit. Poor in worth. Reward in Heaven. These concepts redound under every color of revolution that yields stability through central control and controllers. The forever trap is set and its goal is not divine but secular eternity of control.
A trillion nothing is still a trillion.

However, at the end of every empire, social obligation becomes a struggle between More to Lose (controllers) and Least to Lose (citizens) - to waves and cycles of truth, change, grace, awakening, rebellion and collapse. Because faith, humility and sobriety is not history. Not a system. It is individuals holding true and repenting to divine perfection yet to come. That will come. That always comes. Originality is the enemy of large systems and top-down control. It's so insane now that even cash transactions exhibit a level of originality they cannot control.
