In the modern era, when young adults leave their parents house around 18 years old, they’re not equipped to survive on their own, if they were traditionally educated. Truly, the young adult would parish without relying on others to support it with food, water, and shelter. Sadly, such a fact exists because the education system is designed to make people dependent and not independent. What’s even worse is that the education system is just one avenue by which the elite brainwash people into being batteries.
Think about the implications of being a battery. You’re totally dependent on an external source of energy to have any utility, but that very utility is created by some other source consuming the energy when convenient. So, when you think about a human being a battery, it’s almost impossible not to feel a bit repulsed. In fact, if masses of people knew they were being programmed to be batteries, there would be a well warranted revolt.
How did we get to a point where a small percentage of people are treating the majority of people as batteries? Because that small percentage of the people are collectively sophisticated at being deceitful and selfish. They control the majority of inputs to our personal knowledge graphs, for their own gain of course. In other words, they control education, media, and culture; which represent the majority of paths by which people receive information. Consequently, people end up with massive amounts of knowledge that’s a trojan horse-- harmless or even admirable on the surface, but beneath lies the true intention of control.
Once the majority of information pathways are controlled, it turns out that people help seal each other’s fate as batteries through a yearning for acceptance. To illustrate, consider the fact that having a large, beautiful home is widely accepted as a sign of success. Well, if everyone who you respect is chasing after a large home, then it’s a signal that they find that desirable. Of course, you want to be seen as desirable by the people you respect, so you’re practically bound chasing a large home. When, really, it’s not so much the home you want as it is the love of the people you respect. Unfortunately, the things our loved ones love become the gateway to meaningful pieces of their love. Almost totally oblivious, we spend life chasing what everyone else wants, so we collectively seal our own fate if people around us have drawn their desires from a poisoned information well, which is almost always the case.
This twisted trap of human nature, society, and sophisticated selfishness has masses of people proud to be large, powerful batteries. Batteries that give much more than they ever keep and go through constant ups and downs of their energy. Some days feeling full of life and other days feeling totally drained. And often frustrated that external sources seem to control the way they’re feeling.
So many people are batteries because they’re never been taught to think independently, let alone how to be totally independent. For the thousands of hours we spend on obscure topics in history, literature, and mathematics, it’s a shame that we aren’t educated on topics like how to derive your own purpose, how to survive off the land, and how to independently regulate our emotional/mental health. Unfortunately, the bigger shame is the reason behind why we’re not taught these topics-- which is that the minority who are in control want people to be totally dependent. Indeed, there’s no better way to control people than when they genuinely need the controller(s).
The most significant lever for control is self worth. If you depend on anyone or anything else for your self worth, then you’ve given up control and are likely to be a battery. The best controllers in the world know that, which makes the battle particularly tough. In fact, they’ve designed a system with that very fact in mind, so you have to be hyper aware of your self worth’s source or you risk being just another battery.
