Not Advocating for Paralyzation
Not Encouraging Inactivity
This blog does not try to peddle a nihilist, "to hell with it all," absence of activity; not as might be said a keanuian "black pill." Because, though, the happening of decay within environments is inevitable, it can seem so. It is like saying "The sky is blue" (at some point the sky will not be that color at all, but that is quite a few years in the future, and we are here adopting a "one human lifetime" perspective, during which the sky is default blue): just stating something, not advocating anything.
You should not be inactive if you don't want to be. Educate people, argue with people, take out newspaper ads, fight the power, etc. We ourselves often spend time at aforementioned hobby of trying to convince Jesusians that an invisible, omnipotent, curiously male-focused Middle Eastern rabbi from about CE0 is not the originator of European culture from before BCE35K until CE0. It's not going to work; it cannot work. It is like running about the city with buckets trying to stop the rain by catching every single raindrop--a hobby, a pastime, not something in which you should be disappointed when it doesn't work.
Stupid & Ignorant
All of the evidence supports the assumption that the badness detectable in the modern world is caused by decay. As discussed previously, the way that things are not merely bad, but that people are supporting bad things that hurt themselves, has given rise to assumptions that people are stupid, ignorant, or genetically prone to engaging in self-harm. There are many books, movies, and essays out there, freely accessible now on the internet, where it is elucidated in detail (sometimes with very little, sometimes with very much), addressing the claim of ignorance.
Predators/Parasites
There have been advanced also the incorrect answers that Decay are predators or parasites. Those answers are wrong, which wrongness can be seen in that both predators and parasites want to live, yet Decay causes its own death. Its material purpose is to die, which seems like a failure, yet then the matter used by that environment can continue on. A dead person rots, ends up fertilizer in the dirt, some cow eats grass, some future mother eats a burger, etc. Dead societies have everything or just a lot of things change, new societies form from that, etc. Stars red giant and supernova, some of that stuff that was once in a planet orbiting said star gets swallowed up by that star, is part of that explosion, then ends up in a new star a few million years later, sunlight shines on some baby, etc.
It is similar to the way that you know that you both like and dislike poop. You're glad that Person XYZ was born, so you are totally glad some moose pooped a million years ago, but you know 100% that you don't want to eat any poop. That duality is important.
Decay Can't Be Stopped
It is freely, widely, easily available to find out what is causing things to decay, and the willful ignorance still from such situations resulting often leads to the conclusion that people are stupid or incorrectly ideologically driven.
Decay cannot conceive that they are Decay; they think they are just another human group.
Try to Stop it if Ye Will
By all means, do your thing. Be what you want, resist decay, and all that. This blog isn't an advocacy for inactivity. Decay will always happen, and trying to stop it would be like running around with that bucket trying to catch raindrops. Still, if your hobby is running around with a bucket trying to catch raindrops, go ahead. Do it.
Saying you will "lose" the contest with Decay is not saying you will lose in a contest on a different scale, but is a message of hope, of goodness, because some very nice new things will grow out of the decayed components of the old things. Any very nice thing or things you have here now seen are the same way. It is similar to the Jesusian promise of Heaven, where things that happen to "mere matter"--like females being raped or land being overtaken--are less relevant. Not non relevant, which is how Jesusian egalitarianism encourages rape and mass immigration, but less relevant. So, by all means, catch raindrops all you want. Maybe something good will come of it! Things being more pleasant will probably last only a few years, but it'll make being here a little better, and there is no reason not to try to make things better if you want. We're just trying to make the point that decay will happen. The rain will fall.
