Crime and manipulation of society

I was once told that there was an agenda to destroy everyday life, culture, and history, and especially what is called the middle class.
The rationale behind it was that after destruction comes reconstruction. That with the destruction of everyday life people are confused, with culture people lose their identity, with history people lose the knowledge of where they come from – an important reference to their past, and with the destruction of the middle class it is lost. economic independence, since this is based on small businesses, which are the largest employers in society, and those that sustain the economy.
The purpose, I understood, is that people are easily manipulated by a certain powerful elite that governs behind the politicians.
When people lose hope and are overcome by hopelessness – which is the result of the manipulation of society through scarcity and violence, they (the government or the powers in charge) offer salvation, which this amounts to social conditioning – or restrictions on freedom itself. It is a disastrous contract, where we would give up our freedom in exchange for “security.”
I have noticed that security in society has deteriorated lately, news of assaults and murders of people, robberies of businesses and homes in the suburbs have increased in alarming numbers.
More than “10,000 people have had their cars stolen so far this year in Oakland…” reads one headline, and the same in San Francisco, where dealing in stolen goods has become a ‘regular job’ for many. , these sellers of stolen items are considered merchants.
Not only is this corrupting many, but it is creating a culture of thieves, while the police are just a sidewalk away without confiscating what was stolen, and without arresting those who buy this ill-gotten merchandise.
Every day, hundreds of people parade along 24th Street and The Mission – in BART Plaza – looking for ‘deals’, either for their personal use or for resale.
I have always known that in addition to the one who steals, the one who buys what is stolen also commits a crime of receiving what was stolen, and therefore they share the blame with those who carry out the theft.
Those who were able to see the news of a young man who, without being provoked, murdered another young man who was with his girlfriend on a street in Oakland. It was so painful to see how, without respect for life, he pierced a knife through the heart of the man who was accompanied by his girlfriend when he came from a wedding.
Likewise, the severity of this social chaos is not limited to crime. It also affects the economic system, many family businesses and large companies are closing, leaving consumers without their favorite restaurants or stores, depriving them of part of their lives.
The streets of our businesses have reached a point of dirt and violence that makes merchants prefer to close their businesses, many of which have been small family businesses that have supplied the neighborhoods with important consumer products. Let’s imagine for a moment, what will be of our neighborhood in a few years? Will we be able to maintain our lifestyle? Will we be able to preserve the culture of our neighborhood? Will we keep the little piece of our land in this great city? I don’t believe it.
