* ideating...

How can you have an ideology?
Coz ideology constrains you to a set of ideas and concentrates them in a framework. Ideology thus, enslaves. And ideology constantly defines and redefines our perceptions. An alternate ideology is still an ideology. It is not the fight between classes and groups but of ideologies. It is a clash of ideologies. All ideologies are yet to materialize and concentrate into a ‘paradigm’ (so that they can be put into a discipline). They are just ideas at a nascent stage. Why should we make them into paradigm? Again we are concentrating ideas- leaving some out and keeping some in. Here again, lies misery.
