Each human being is not born an insect nor insensate: she has from God and nature an inbuilt conscience, consciousness, reason, the ability to abstract and define her preferences and values in linguistically expressible proposition. Her will is not entirely from natural, genetic, and nurtured determinants, but she is free enough to make moral decisions for which she must answer one day, at St. Peter’s desk before the gates of heaven.
God gave her life and units of power to operate in the world, and to make cosmos out of chaos, beauty out of ugliness, truth over illusion, and elevate the moral and holy over the immoral and demonic.
The positive mode of power, emanating from the Good Spirits, is the power of powerfulness. Since the good deities and the Good Spirits are Individuators and Individualists, and we are made in their image and likeness, we are to be individuators and individualists to the degree that we can muster and manage. The maverizer creates, builds, makes money, originates, builds beauty and order from the motive of love and gratitude. She neither allows another to own her, or her to own another. Each is to cooperate in a community and society built upon an ethic of rational egoism.
The negative mode of power, flowing out from the Evil Spirits, is the power of powerlessness. The evil deities and the Evil Spirits are nonindividuators and joiners; they are robbers, parasites and ruling elites living off the masses.
These moral cannibals and vampires rob and deprive the masses of their share of the personal power of powerfulness; that stolen and centralized is perverted and transmuted into the power of powerlessness where all say, power and property is collectively owned, even the personages of each one of the masses, each one is part of the group, the community, the state. All is state property; all is hierarchy and hierarchy is all. The elites exploit, abuse, oppress and enslave the masses.
Minimally do any under this tyranny build, create, produce wealth, own private property, create or originate. This regime’s subjects build chaos, poverty, ignorance, superstition, ugliness, hatred, and unhappiness, consistent with the low self-esteem and altruist morality of the subjugated subjects. How Sauron mistreated the evil orcs on Mordor could exemplify how the masses will be abused in a totalitarian state. This is pure power of powerlessness unfolded.
