* systemic ideology

this is it...i have cracked it...been thinking about it for so long...its a social fact...everything wants to perpetuate itself. ideology, family, religion, language, capitalism and the system....they do not exist merely for their existence but for their perpetuation...their limitless survival...systems are immortal till not changed...you can change a system but you cant change the fact that there can never be systems...there will be some system and that system for its perpetuation (and not survival) will sieze power by imposing an ideology.....you can never rid yourself of it...though it can rid you for its sake...
people die, systems live......they order and command so that they become timeless entitites, they do what they want to do. they do what they want us to do. every system has one goal- to go on. it will sacrifice its members if neccessary. who told you death is not as beautiful as life??? the system has a plan. a plan to sustain itself ...not today, but tomorrow. ya, you can loose a language, family, particular means of production...a political regime...the system does not need these. these are just the supporting actors. the system needs an ideology. it is uses an ideology because..firstly, it cant be lost. ideology does not die. neither does it need people to survive. also, ideology motivates the supporting actors to act in its ways. and who are we??..we are the visible manifestations of the supporting actors....we just accept without knowing that we have accepted...latently, we have accepted a self-perpetuating ideology.
