Spike is Best

Things are never so clear as when your status as spectator is removed. The propensity to think of clarity as "seeing the clear picture" implies being outside of the picture, and this carries the inevitable drawback of sectarianism as the default, the automatic go-to, for attaining clarity. But that is a totally false clarity. It's also incredibly cheap, like it was something you possessed.

The supposition is that we merely need this spectator clarity as pure stasis and by some magical osmosis it will rub off onto everything else inducing the right orientation and we will go right, we will be converted, the good will prevail. This is totally juvenile, and it only generates confusion and violence; for it ossifies one's capacity to be receptive to reality. Moreover, it makes the Gospel into something false and fragile, and so people reject it. Because one has fallen for the idol of certainty (with all its concomitant conspiricism), which is always cheaply bought, one is incapable of spreading the Gospel.

The sectarian stumping about for clarity is not interested in real clarity. Insofar that true clarity removes one's status as spectator, clarity provokes passion. True clarity stirs up. And that is not what the sectarians are interested in, not for themselves - not in the least.

Eight minutes and forty six seconds of video opened up something in people, and I think it is this: their status as spectator was removed. And those that cling to spectator status as their substitute clarity have been thrown into confusion. They project their confusion and inner chaos onto those who have accepted their status as spectator being removed. Hence, BLM's "tenets" (LOL) are "Marxist" and seek to "destroy the nuclear family", and so on and so forth, bippity boppity boo.

It's most unfortunate for them, to regard themselves as having the fullness of truth.
