The System consists of three basic components, the Institutional Component, the Ideological Component, and the Compliance Component.  


The '''institutional component''' of the System is the institutional structure(s) designed to ensure intergenerational persistence of the System. The institutional component makes sure the System continues to go on, generation after generation. In computer terminology, we might say the institutional component is the hardware that makes it all possible.

Each of these systems work together to enable and propagate the exploitation fo the masses. His schema is a useful wayt to conceptualize the system.  


The '''ideological component''' of the System is the organized set of ideas and archetypes designed specifically to suppress human power by temporarily neutering the physical unit. We might say that the ideological component is the software that implements the System.  
The System encourages compliance and violence: Zimbardo, of Stanford Prison Experiment fame, speaks of a part of the System that aims at encouraging people towards compliance and violence.

The '''compliance component''' is a system of emotional, psychological, spiritual, and physical violence used to a) initially implement ideology and later b) suppress and control, when the ideological framework breaks down, and people start to power through.  
Zimbardo notes, in the case of Nazis and their mass murder, that getting people to do evil things involves casting the opponent as an evil enemy, and then giving official "permission" to carry out sadistic acts. <ref>Zimbardo, Philip.

The tools for labelling others as evil enemies, and the ideological underpinning that facilitates permission, can be found in the [[Old Energy Creation Template]]
The institutional/administrative component of the System consists of structured components designed to ensure intergenerational persistence of the System. The institutional component of the System consists of those organizations (we will call them System Institutions) designed to maintain and propagate the regulations, mores, ideas, and behaviors of the System. System Institutions consist of [[Mechanisms of Record]] and [[Mechanisms of Indoctrination]].


The ideological component of the System is an organized set of ideas and archetypes (what I call a [[Creation Template]], designed specifically to suppress human power, break human connection, deactivate chakra energy flow, and energetically and creatively neuter (temporarily) the [[Physical Unit]].

The compliance component is a system of control through emotional, psychological, spiritual, and physical violence that is brought to bear on sleeping individuals to ensure they follow the rules, absorb the right ideas, and stay away from empowerment before they are capable of handling their full power.

The System has administrators. How these administrators are organized, and the ways they interrelate, define various "system ages." Roughly, we have the Mesopotamian/Egyptian, Roman, Feudal, and the final Capitalist ages.

The System (a.k.a. the Regime of Accumulation, a.k.a. Mode of Exploitation) refers to the legal, political, educational, police/military, and ideological systems tasked with enabling the economic and sexual exploitation of the masses, and with propagating and maintaining a particular exploitative world order.

Notes

An excellent overview of how the rich rig The System to benefit them is provided by economist Dean Beaker.[1]

Ruyle uses the phrase Mode of Exploitation to refer to The System. Ruyle breaks the mode of exploitation down into three interrelated systems, Exploitative Techniques, Mechanism of Force, and Ideological Institutions. Each of these systems work together to enable and propagate the exploitation fo the masses. His schema is a useful wayt to conceptualize the system.

The System encourages compliance and violence: Zimbardo, of Stanford Prison Experiment fame, speaks of a part of the System that aims at encouraging people towards compliance and violence. "However, I would have missed the big picture, the bigger power for creating evil out of good—that of the System, the complex of powerful forces that create the Situation."[2] His book details the forces that cause good people to do bad things.

Zimbardo notes, in the case of Nazis and their mass murder, that getting people to do evil things involves casting the opponent as an evil enemy, and then giving official "permission" to carry out sadistic acts. [3]. The tools for labelling others as evil enemies, and the ideological underpinning that facilitates permission, can be found in the Old Energy Creation Template

The current, Stage Five system is a Capitalist Regime of Accumulation. [4]. In order for the planet to move on to Stage Seven, the Regime of Accumulation must be replaced with a Regime of Distribution that fairly and sustainably distributes the planet's bounty.
