Code: Free Will

Humanity has always needed guidance. A figure to blindly rely on, either by power or faith. Most of the people in this world appear as feeble sheep without any ambition, and the ones that try to make a difference end up being ignored or stripped of their ideals by those sitting at the "top".

This world is sick, not only environmentally, but politically. We have reached a point in which decisions are taken not for the good of the people, but for the good of a single person. We rely on politicians because we do not have other options. Democracy itself might be deceiving. Socialism or Capitalism, no matter the system, they follow the same end: making rich, powerful people even more wealthy at the expense of us, their priceless and foolish little pawns.

I must now write about a certain TV show called Code Geass. An anime in which main character and former heir to the throne of Britannia, Lelouch, takes revenge against his own empire amidst the hostile environment of repression that has been imposed in the once called land of Japan. His weapon: a powerful ability called Geass, capable of making the target follow any order given, thoroughly and without hesitation. Quite useful indeed.

My conclusion: If the greater good can be achieved by taking away the free will of the people and specially the one of those with power; even going against the "gift" that was granted by "God"...so be it!
