Greetings to the Living. Thank you for choosing to listen to Up Is Down and double-plus-good thank you to all who support this work. In this episode I take a slight turn from the track I was on previously and examine the relationship I, and we, have to the world around around us and identify the toxic back and forth games run on us at all times.

Chances are you've been in a toxic relationship with a narcissist, considering the world is quite full of them. It's quite possible that YOU are that narcissist or that toxically positive person or even just the punching bag target of abuse from that person. If that is the case, and given the extremes of those relationships, it's not easily to avoid falling into the classic bait-and-switch abusive techniques that are the baseline for even simple communications and everyday functions within the relationship. Our abusers know us very, very well.

Now, expand that co-dependent toxic relationship up and out of the household to understand the nature of the systems of society we create and interact with. By clocking and tracking the abuse patterns and techniques of toxic, narcissistic interpersonal relationships and then the suffering and cognitive dissonance we live with in our sick, medicated, depressed and terrified society makes perfect sense.

We are sick, tired, scared, overweight, medicated, and anxious because we are in a toxic relationship with this world. We are on the receiving end of psychological, physical and emotional abuse at the hands of systems designed for that exact purpose.

It's not a mistake.
Nothing has gotten "out of control".

This Is The Way.

You will never find me on Youtube, they'd shut me down instantly, and it's only a matter of time before the podcast platform and hosting services become as compromised as the mainstream media. I will never accept sponsorships that require me to try and sell you bullshit products you not only don't need, but likely cannot afford anyway. I believe that Value-For-Value is indeed the future of free speech and expression, as anything else has already proved itself to be more than compromised at all levels; you can actually just sit back and watch monetized platforms disintegrate each and every day. That cannot happen with Value-For-Value, because only YOU decide what's valuable and only YOU decide how that is determined and returned. Now that's power!
