A Taboo Social Truth and Holy Grail Not Found in Any Public Library
When I 1st went to Russia in 2002, I was mesmerized at how approachable, open and relaxed consumers were, mainly the young women. It was surreal and unimaginable. Coming from America and Taiwan, I was utilised to only old men and women and small kids getting open and relaxed, not young attractive women, which in my cultures are the LEAST open and approachable. In Russia, I kept pinching myself to see if I was dreaming, but I wasn't. It was real! I had found the "holy grail" of dating and social life.
But the situation was, this "holy grail" was a large social taboo, so taboo in fact that you will not find it mentioned in any book or publication. You see, in any culture, you are NOT allowed to say that consumers are anti-social, uptight and closed. You are only allowed to either say that everybody/most persons are friendly and amazing, or blame oneself for your own self-deficiencies. But you are Never ever allowed to blame the social culture or atmosphere, no matter how justified it might possibly be to do so.
In reality, if you go to the biggest public library, you will not come across any book or publication stating that people today in any particular culture are uptight, anti-social, closed and unapproachable, or that some cultures are much more open and sociable than other individuals. Neither will you locate any book in your library that mentions the reality of this "holy grail", for to do so would violate the social taboo mentioned above. The closest factor to it would be sociology/cultural studies textbooks which mention that some cultures are far more individualistic when other people are alot more collectivist.
The actual and apparent truth is that in Anglo and Oriental workaholic cultures (e.g. USA, Canada, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea), consumers live a highly materialistic and segregated life style devoid of human connection. The purpose of their life is small business and productivity, and life itself is decreased to a company resource. The society and media evaluates its citizens in terms of economic functions (e.g. workers, tax payers, consumers, and so on.) rather than as human beings with spirit, feelings and passion. As a result, persons come to be machines, stiff and repressed, devoid of romance and passion.
It really is bad adequate that we are all slaves programmed to "consider" that we are cost-free, but what is sickening is that no matter how obvious the truth is about anti-sociality in these cultures, you are NOT ALLOWED to mention or speak about it. Therefore truth itself has become a taboo. That's sickening.
Whatever the case, it does appear that the additional materialistic people's lifestyles turn out to be, the much less social they are and the less human connection there is. With wealth and "economic growth" comes loneliness and social disconnectedness. But of course, the media Never ever mentions this, cause it is a total taboo. Rather, the media continually sees economic growth as a win-win circumstance for everybody with no trade-offs. It really is as if you are supposed to deny and suppress your will need for human connection or companionship. That's definitely sick.
Even in Initial World European nations there is still a lot of romantic passion and soul in their culture and consumers. But somehow, this appears to be lacking in the USA and the Oriental cultures of workaholic East Asia, which is entirely robotic and stiff. The regimented socializing that does take location in such workaholic cultures is quite often fake, artificial, uptight, pretentious and a cliche rather than a truly flowing interactive expertise.
The males in these nations are in the worst position, for the reason that the young girls in workaholic societies tend to be the LEAST approachable and open amongst the entire demographic, and the MOST uptight, closed and anti-social. They can afford to be that way given that with money, they do not want guys, and with no passion, they have no require for connection either. Thus they can develop into masculine and harbor a disdain for guys (as they do in the USA).
But in lesser developed countries that are economically repressed, the females have fewer choices, so they have to be sweeter and way more feminine and create far better inner and outer qualities. This makes such cultures a "dating paradise" for males from Initially Globe cultures, who are treated far far better, far more appreciated, and have far extra alternatives among attractive females as nicely.
A developing quantity of guys in Initially Globe nations are beginning to comprehend this and capitalize on this "significant secret" and "holy grail", but the media still considers it a taboo topic and would never ever cast it in a positive light. That's what makes the media sick. They want us to be dumbed down repressed robotic operate slaves who live in worry and obey whatever they are told on Television, rather than turn into enlightened with the truth. Anything outside of the media's narrow box is ridiculed or marginalized by them with trashy non-intellectual soundbytes of a herd mentality.
But of course, even talking about all this is a total taboo. Most many people would rather hear deceit rather than the truth, according to lots of amazing thinkers, writers and intellectuals (e.g. Mark Twain, George Bernard Shaw, Eric Fromm, Frederich Nietzsche, HL Mencken, RD Lang, Marcus Aurelius, Jiddu Krishnamurti, Ayn Rand, Oscar Wilde, etc.)
