Good Government, ULTIMATE "Endgame" Spoiler gagablog 173

I've been promising an edition about Good Government after the "Girl Free in a Boy's Body" edition and while I want to add more about that and I only have 30 minutes before going to Detective Pikachu but I want to try and establish the principles for Good Government in that time.

I promise a lot of things, here. The name of all of this, "Gagablog" promises that it will have something to do with Lady Gaga and Gaga Magic, a word I use for Oz Magic, Fairy Magic, the fun magic I talk about. This time it will, more than usual, recently - I admit I have been Out of Touch with Gaga, as much as I was in touch with her, magically, artistically, since 2016, and feel better to try to connect with her, more. I saw on Facebook an article from Vogue entitled "Five things you didn't know about Lady Gaga: how well do you know Mother Monster?" and was not surprised at all to find that they were all common knowledge, among monsters, anyway, but they established they thought they were talking to us in the title. Anyway, it does feel good to feel connected to Gaga and I regret "falling away" and look forward to getting back in touch, in more intimate touch, with the art and the magic, with the Goddess. I did see some early performances I'd never seen before, including Electric Kiss and the song before it about being Captivated - can't remember, now, feeling hurried, and the internet connection flagged and this isn't saving, oh, there it went, as the "Gimme a Break" themesong comes on.

Good Government is something I feel qualified to discuss as an Ozzite  - from the Utopian Future of Oz where Government IS good, and as a person who worked in a position of authority after spending my entire life being anti-authority. When I had to reconcile my rebellious nature with a job I took, to take care of abused and neglected kids in a "treatment center" where I had to become an "authority" figure I realized the ONE kind of Authority that is Legitimate and Good: Taking Care of Others.

The ability to Take Care of Others, to Handle Things, this is Actual Authority. All authority that is built upon something OTHER than this is bullshit - and yet it exists and constructs the authority systems that seem "most powerful" in our world - and ARE Empowered in this world to the point that they are, and have been, the Powers governing human development for centuries. But these are evil powers based upon bullshit authorities like the ability to kill and create fear or the ability to amass vast amounts of money or control large resources. Controlling resources is FINE if the object of that control is Taking Care of Others - if that is the actual, genuine goal that having that Goal and ability grants authority to the person who has it. NOT having the Goal of helping others invalidates the authority of anyone even if they "control" resources.

The control of resources is enabled by force if it is not granted by the community in honor of the person's ability to meet the Goal of Caring for others. This is the basic principle of Democracy that we have denied and run away from - that the Patriarchy has avoided to preserve itself because actually empowering people is their destruction: the REASON  why we vote to elect leaders AT ALL is so these leaders can SERVE us, serve ALL of us, in the best way. The standard for picking leaders SHOULD be "who can enable our government and society to use resources to benefit People / Nature THE MOST" instead of "who can harness the powers that be to benefit 'Us' and deny 'Others' as much as possible. In short we should Elect Bernie, not Trump.

Its Natural that the ability to Share resources the best is what makes a Good Leader. The ability to Hoard resources has always been the hallmark of a Bad Leader but has become "the way of the world" and so widely accepted, or expected even if our very natures always reject this idea - so that we basically think of Government as synonymous with Corruption. We are taught that "Good government" is an Oxymoron because they want us to accept that "power" always corrupts, etc.

SOME power DOES corrupt: Greed, fear, etc. But a Mother has more power than Anyone and when that power is attuned with the real Power that exists, the ONLY Real Power that exists, the power to take Care of another, the power of Love  -well, it's obvious that is the source of REAL power. Natural power. The Unnatural power of Fear, of control through Violence and Deprivation  - those don't come into Life until Later - and as False and Evil as they are it is THESE power structures that we have elevated and accepted instead of the ones we all know we naturally need, based upon Care.

Power based upon Killing, Fear, and Greed is simply Evil. Power based upon Care is Good. When we act like we believe this, like we believe in Good Government, we can Have it, we can Make it, we can Transform it.

I'm going to write more about the details of this, explain it all, but I've got 7 more minutes before going to see Pikachu. I realized I'm going about this backwards, trying to sell Utopia to Distopians - it's time to just break your world and show you what is outside, inside the shell - Egg incoming!

It's like this: Good Government is exemplified by Oz, by Ozma. I've always recognized Lady Gaga as our "Unlitmate Dorothy" who takes us to Oz - but she also is Ozma - and you don't know who Ozma is unless you read the other Oz Books. Read them now -because I've been avoiding, for YEARS, talking about this stuff "directly" ("that stuff is beautiful!" or something Nell said "stuff" as I typed that and Sammy Davis Jr. said it was made by "your aunt's husband's cousin on your father's side" )  - because "You" haven't read the Oz books - because I assume most people, in this century, haven't read them, yet - if we HAD read them, with the internet and video games and political movements uniting us, if we DID have the ideas, from Oz - we would have saved the world by bow *now, thanks, typo fairies.

We would have saved the world by Bow - Gaga's early Bows, the Bow she untied on the Met Gala red carpet... I have to go to the movie, now, but when I return:

How Gaga is not only Dorothy but Ozma - and who Ozma is. Ozma rules Oz, with Love - she Good Way, the easy model for Good Governent. And how we are ALL Dorothy, and Ozma, in our own spheres, on our own paths.

Love is the Rule, Love is how One can be a Good Leader. The secret I want to reveal, now, is that Ozma is a "young" Fairy Girl - and L. Frank Baum who wrote the stories once planned and began to create an island that would be Ruled by a Young Girl - this gave me the idea for one of the most basic "Rules of Good Government" - it should be able to be done, the decisions made, by a Sweet Young Child.

If it's too complicated or unnatural, inhuman, to be understood by an innocent child - if it's something you wouldn't want to tell her about, or explain to her  - then it simply shouldn't be happening.

I can hear the "objections" - "are you saying complanies and governments that don't Help everyone are Illigitimate, have lost any claim to Authority or even their own amassed hoards?" Yes. "Are you saying we shouldn't have War or an Economic system if a kid can't understand it?" Yes - just get rid of it.

Last time I will avoid "spoiling" anything - Read the Oz books. I will be "finishing" this from the perspective of "It's ok to tell you about Ozma, how Gaga is Ozma, how we ALL are Ozma" next time.  For now you can think of it as Bernie, the potential leader who represents the most Taking Care of Us and of Others - or as Tulsi Gabbard, the potential leader who stands most strongly against War and the Military Industrial Complex - you can also see them as the Nine Walkers with Tulsi as Frodo/Sam - but more on that, later.

You can think how a recent article said Gaga's Christianity was more what Jesus wanted - ok they said whay people are accepting, but it is what Jesus wanted - than Mike Pence's - you can think of it any way that works for you.

When I return I will explain it from the Oz persepctive, so read those books or I might reveal some secrets

Or, I will be talking more directly, calling to attention, the people who have already read these books - calling all Ozzites, calling all Oz - time to make this world what it SHOULD be.
