The Moths

Most people will go through life as Moths, the acronym for "members of the herd.". They will follow the rules of the herd and never become an individual. They can never be patriotic in the United States because their most powerful loyalty is to the herd, not to the broader ideals of the nation. Loyalty to the nation is so remote it generates little attachment. What these people believe is patriotism actually is jingoism.

From 2001 to 2007, the Republicans controlled the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government. They rubber stamped whatever the president wanted. Rubber stamp Republicans reflected at least two major herd instincts. First is unquestioning obedience to the herd alpha. Second is group pressure. Moths will subordinate their own conscience to that of the herd of herd alpha. In other words, they have no ethics of their own or moral screens to direct their actions. America would have been better served by a Congress of monkeys with yea and nay stamps. The monkeys would have worked for less salary, probably just bananas, and benefits while doing a better job.

The current field of presidential candidates is representative of the Moths in the nation at large. All those who were duped by a morally retarded dummy into voting for the invasion of Iraq were responding to their Moth instincts. That means only Kucinich and Gravel qualify as enlightened citizens on this issue in the Democratic Party. In the Republican Party, only Ron Paul qualifies as a person with a mind that is not herd controlled. Those who voted to fund the criminal war after it started also are Moths.

The Moths' herd instincts render them incapable of determining that the war in Iraq is criminal. They hold fellow herd members to low or no standards while holding all others to high standards. The invasion of Iraq was just like Hitler's invasion of Poland in 1939. Moths can believe the invasion of Poland was criminal while believing their own invasion of Iraq was justified. The Moths fell for similar deceptions leading to the U,S. invasoin of Vietnam. They were duped by similar fabrications 40 years later because they are incapable of learning from past mistakes. Moths have a powerful urge to stampede, and they don't particularly care about the direction they are told to take.

George Bush could not have been elected elected president in a democratic nation. Yet he claims he is fighting for democracy in other nations. He can't understand the hypocrisy in this statement. He is good friends with several dictators. He can't understand the hypocrisy in this position. As a Moth, his brain is incapable of functioning analytically. His brain is incapable of reason. All his brain can do is respond to emotions and visceral urges. He frequently admits that he responds to what he feels in his gut. This is a classic Moth response.

The vast majority of people can rise above the Moth level. They can learn to think on their own. However, nobles and rulers need ignorant masses or peasants. They spend a lot of time and money deceiving and manipulating the masses. As long as the masses function at the Moth level, they can be controlled and exploited by a few nobles and rulers.
