What Happens When You Rebel Against the Herd

[GabeN]

You live, but are you living the way you want to live, or the way others want you to live? You choose, but are your choices based on your own decisions or on the decisions imposed on you by society? You act, but are you acting out of your conditioning or out of your conscious will?

Running from the herd is the first step for sure, but telling people to run from the herd is like telling them to stop drinking water. 

It goes against every ounce of their “survivability” as most of you know, being with the sheeple is hardwired from birth and so as we evolve and we no longer need breast milk from our fellow sheeple we can actually start walking our own path. 

I think there has to be an inner intuition sprinkled with some suffering for people to start breaking free from their own slavery. At least this was this case for me, I needed to hit my head a few times. ?

If you rebel against the herd is general thing. Look at it from spiral dynamics and east vs west perspective

If you rebel against stage purple, you are 100% killed and you threat to the tribe integrity and well being

If you rebel against stage red You 1000000000% crushed and killed

If you rebel against blue stage, you will be called apostate, treasonous, excommunicate, infidel, defector,sinner, demon,traitor, dissident and you will mostly likely be hanged or shot or killed

If you rebel against orange stage, you will be most likely shamed, called fa***** or slut, irrational or moron or anti-science, anti-freedom or terrorist or marxist or liberal  and you face smear campaign against you or mostly likely be defamed and or beaten or worse killed

If you rebel against green stage, you will most likely be called homophobic, xenophobic, anti-nature, hater, misogynistic, anti-women, anti-minorities, nazi, fascist, KKK, backwarded and have southern poverty law and other human rights group label you as racist or hater on their websites and post your address and everything about you publicly and you may get Far-right groups come after you and beat the shit of you in name of peace, love and keep it green.

You awaken if you are strong enough to bear the pain.

I find this idea of “rebelling against the herd” very red and arrogant. 

Sure, you don’t want to be a chronical people-pleaser, but this attitude of “fuck other people” is just as unhealthy.

Sometimes you have to be a honey badger to get up on your way and take the route that needs to be taken in order to be the very mechanism that inevitably will help the people in which you are leaving.

No need to say "fuck other people" but at the same time I believe it is ABSOLUTELY crucial to walk on your edge and get on the path. When this happens the typical steps in some form or fashion will go like this "first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win" as Mahatma Gandhi says. I would also say that by you leaving the herd, you are actually giving them way more value then if you stayed-you are giving them inspiration that they have never seen before. 

I would say that its not about saying fuck the other people but rather love of yourself which will then translate to love of other people.

To rebel against a herd, you need a feminine energy+ silence and observation. Your feminine high vibrational energy of calmness and still will literally be like a magnet for others who are desperate for love and affection, people will literally love you. Be like jesus or buddha, a distant but welcoming, silent but attentive and listening, calm and still but full of energy. THIS IS THE ONLY SUCCESSFUL METHOD OF REBELLION. Red stage lile rebellion will only alienate. Rebel like a stage torqouise person.

Definitely an option, but to leave on ones own terms, to go into the abyss, to go into the unknown void, to leave comfort and security for the hero's journey is definitely a masculine trait. To penetrate the world with ones own gifts is a masculine trait. 

With that being said I don't see why this has to be an either/or thing. You can be masculine in your pursuit to break free of what chains hold you down but at the same time completely open and showing love and compassion for all of humanity in route to that which you want to achieve. 

Jesus seems to me to be the ultimate honey badger and had some very masculine traits, if he didn't we probably wouldn't be talking about him right now. For Jesus to die on the cross with his arms open is the ultimate masculine/feminine model in which we can embody. Sure you want feminine qualities but why not masculine qualities as well? Remember Stage Red has its own purpose too, you don't want to just get rid of it.

"The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown."

@Gabriel Antonio I don’t really look at Gandhi as a genius in the general sense of the term. He had purpose and chose to break free of the chains that were holding him back, and he embodied that what he wanted to see in the world. 

I’m not sure I understand your post, can you explain further?
