Society is trying to sell us on this idea that virtuousity consists in being a mediocre idiot who blindly follows the crowd, has no real personal initiative, doesn't ask questions and does what they're told. A personality designed for easy control and exploitation.
Forrest Gump is like Jesus to this society. Forrest Gump is maybe the Antichrist in disguise.
We're taught that Forrest Gump IS virtue. Forrest Gump is the model society wants for us. Jenny wants Forrest Gump. She can ride the carousel and know that she can use Forrest Gump as her footstool while she engages in self-destructive hedonism.
I went over to my cousin's house and she insisted "hey let's watch Forrest Gump". She is obsessed with that movie. She loves Forrest Gump. My ex was at my apartment- very manipulative woman and she was telling me how she loves Forrest Gump and wants a man like Forrest Gump. The not-so-subtle subtext was she wanted me to be Forrest Gump so she could have power.
You remember how well Forrest Gump followed orders without questioning things? How well he assembled his rifle in the army? He did exceptionally well at things that dumb people are good at. Mindless, robotic tasks and obedience. Intelligent people tend be much less conformist.
Forrest Gump is an idealized depiction of the mediocre idiot society wants us to be. In real life, Forrest Gump is a violent alcoholic who molests his daughter. He's not virtuous.
Forrest Gump turns virtue on its head. Forrest Gump was a movie teaching people to associate stupidity with virtue. Stupidity is not a virtue. Stupid people are more violent than intelligent people. They impulsively resort to violence without thinking about and are a threat to themselves and others. I am being serious.
Have you been around dumb people lately? Seriously, look at them- they're not virtuous. And don't hit me with the strawman argument society wants us to think of when we piece together the puzzle pieces here- that I hate people for something they have no control over. Nonsense! A certain amount of the stupidity is biological but WE ARE SOCIALLY ENGINEERED AND CONDITIONED FOR MASS STUPIDITY. The result is not a society of loveable sitcom characters. The result is dark, abusive, sick stuff going on behind the scenes everywhere from the hood to the rich neighborhoods. How many of these kids are being molested? Dumb, violent people do sick things and don't think about what they're doing. Look at all the normalization of sexual perversion taking place. It's perfectly normal, we think, that Little Johnny now wants to wear lipstick and be Little Jenny. What THE HELL happened to Little Johnny that we don't know about? There is a coverup as far as the abuse of children in our society. Please raise your hand if you did not experience some form of abuse as a child. Now explain why you're the exception when by nature you should be the rule?
WE ARE BEING BRED FOR STUPIDITY. Why are we afraid to talk about the mass stupidity pushed on our society? That fear is itself a symptom of what's taking place.
Forrest Gump turns virtue on its head. Stupidity and ignorance are not associated with virtue. Knowledge and intelligence are associated with virtue. This is in the Old Testament, the New Testament, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, the Quran, Aquinas...... you see now what I mean when Forrest Gump reversed the natural order and turns virtue on its head.
Stupidity is a word I keep using because it is one of the stronger words against this- which is why I was taught not to use that word. We need to use the word retarded- it is a taboo word because it is so accurate and the TRUTH HURTS. The people are retarded- are STUNTED in their intellectual develoent and trying to remove the word that describes this condition- RETARDED- from our vocabulary is part of the push to normalize our condition.
