Eco-Psychology
of FREEDOM & HEALTH In Our Generations Spirit
Expanding
on ÒThe 4th Turning of GenerationsÓ book by Straus & Howe from WW2 to beyond 2000 thru ÔOur
consciousness RevolutionÕ bornÔ64-Õ84, now underground greening up homes.
They describe us
baby boomers as rebels & prophets born 45-64, now energy elderhood. Many of
our Ôboomers Ôbegan to doubt our elders American dreams melting into nite-mares
when JFK was murdered. Our fantasies of peace, space travel & fair &
honest society we shattered. So we began ??ing & challeng-ing the established
beliefs & systems of social control in Ôperfect progressÕ for our holy-war
empire of retro Ômanifest destinyÕ with ever better technology. Who blames the Ômoral decay of youthÕ
now projecting their secret guilt for hurting others, nature & fears of
free spirit denied modern generations.
Elders hated our
doubt, blamed as stupid rejection, tragedy or crimes of immorality, rebellion & protesting
war, pollution & lies they totally believed in with loyalty to super-ior God
& big $cience rationalogic. We
found elders having blind faith in destroying our ÔtraditionalÕ civil-rights
for pop fantasies, classy success & world empire. We were ignoring & denying real civil-rights of:
equality, privacy, freedom of expression, gathering, happiness, honesty &
due process of law. It takes years
to understand how empire works iwith brainwashing PR hiding myriad secret
plots.
We rebels became
enemies to their killing our civil rights & free spirit, seeking & feeling
deeper, stimulated by black civil-rights & freedom to love movements, sexual Revo, Beatles, Stones &
psychedelic music of late Ô60s. We
secretly & loudly became crazy for truth & freedom of choice while still
addicted to hi-tech goodies in our sham democracy. ItÕs a hell of a struggle with illusions, fears & old beliefs
in modern life, even now as later generations struggle with adults hypnotized
by icons in mazes of super tech, pollution,
contradictions, hypocracy & denial we can see in most institutions &
media.
The national drugging
of HaADD of millions of school kids with Ritalin began in Ô70s hyperactivity
(hi anxiety) invaded students hooked on sugar, as I was in 40s into Ô70s. We rebels were wired & mad, not
sheep like absorbers of holy history & super junk science, Ònewspeak &
double thinkÓ= ÔEnglishÕ. The last
3 decades millions of hyper students been forced onto mind-nerv controlling
drugs numbing out their PTSD so parents ainÕt responsible for emotional abuse
or neglecting natural needs for love.
Schools are
prisons for training us for big business, not living, creative or cooperating together
filling our needs.
The US has the
worst public school, childbirth & medical systems of all hi tech nations
now, divorced from nature, called ecology missed in business.
Mother nature is
calling us from inside our cozy luxury rooms & cars to join her in the
bath, wilderness & waters of loving energy. While fake democracy still lies ever more in mass media,
schools, big busyness $cience
& war terrors. We blindly
& needy followed our parents devotion to super- market goodies blessing our
suburban paradise of plastic perfection & trashing our ecology more than we
want to know or accept responsibility for poisoning & killing, Like the native Indian genocide since
the pilgrims. We finally learned from
Ô70s on how our ancestors did mass -murdering native Indians & stealing
their homelands for heroic pioneers of American progress nitemare! Many docu-drama movies & books by
radical Indians of exposed those crimes of our forefather.
Anglo democracy
has always struggled from England to US revolution, thru many generations
against total empire controlling everyone in cities, industry & farms. WeÕre a skitzo nation of Ôgung hoÕ = Ôsold
outÕ Americans & generations seeking of freedom, equality & love at
home. So we must break taboos to
discover & become free. Unatural
civilized beliefs, fears & habits are
conditioned minds & reflexes trained from birth & bonding to hi tech,
depending on medics & parents, mass media & school who know-how to
raise us up good for society, competing, not cooperating with free will power
in social equality. We found
voluntary cooperating very rare under the pandemic US-AAAAAAAA = US of Ôanxious
afraid assumed adult authority approval addicts associatedÕ. Radical comedy
& satire, music & theater also began in Ô60-70s
Our spiritual needs for honest respect, deep
peace, sharing truth, giving choices of filling natural needs are rare in US
institutions, & denied in most.
The spiritual revolution was seeded in 60s-79s by: blacks civil-rights,
& Sex-revo, Edgar Cayce, Beatles, yoga, Stones, LSD, Indians, meditation, wilderness
camping, Jefferson Airplane, Mother nature & ecology, womenÕs lib, communal
families & cooperative
parenting mostly underground. But
with psychodelia bursting forth with radical feelings, & needs. images & sounds never heard on earth
before? The adults didnÕt couldnÕt understand or appreciate our sensitivity,
goals & demands for civil rights.
Our Ôecology of doubtÕ began with Rachel
CarsonÕs ÒSilent SpringÓ exposing the massive chemokill toxins of industry
poisoning natural habitats & our bodies health. It revealed the attacks on our quality of life, we trusted
in squeaky clean ads, schools & markets, far from horrible mines, oil
wells, murders, toxic factories & wars we paid for, mostly on credit. We doubted adults ÔtruthÕ while seeing
& hating their denial of pollution, corruption & hyper controls all around
US, they believed necessary for Ônational securityÕ.
So we struggled to begin new home
community based free school, home birthing, massage, gardening, dancing,
inventing & enjoying, music, yoga
& meditating alone & in groups.
Our back to the land movement began in 70s as Vietnam, Nixon &
Watergate just proved how corrupt the US empire is still now nice Nazi with
neo-con Bushites in power since 1980 Reaganomics, oil & star wars
campaigns, Contragate & other scandals of toxins, lies & fake family
values.
Our naturalizing, Permaculture &
organic food & health movements are growing fast since Clinton era was
nearly as corrupt as Reagan era, as industry moved to China, pioneering =global
empire war economy Meanwhile the
blessed Unrest of now a billion people, in a million groups doing 1000 different community activist volunteer
group are cooperating to learn, protest, solve & prevent the epidemic ills
of WTO & world bank agendas. Now
the growing climate crisis ecospasms are exploding from many causes are argued
over by science, industry & politicians to bias, rich, numb & industrial
to want or realize the Mother nature is damaged (revenge) & working
constantly for rebalancing the local bioregions for fertile life to grow. So weÕre learning how Mother earth
biosphere works in dynamic flux form weather chaos & natural crystals in
organic health awareness & spiritual respect we all need here now.
