Suppose that the word ʻpersonʼ (by definition) has been misconstrued in meaning. Suppose that in our society, a ‘person’ is a LEGAL ENTITY, a thing, an artificial construct and not a ʻliving beingʼ? Suppose that you are blissfully ignorant of this deception, and truly believe that you are a “person”.
What if your government considers a ‘person’ to be a corporate entity? And what if, without your knowledge or consent, you are legally responsible for a corporate entity that bears your name? And as a consequence you are bound by rules and laws that were meant to govern commerce, not people?
What ill consequences might arise from your ignorance? And who might benefit from this misunderstanding? Letʼs look.
So what is a person? Is a “person” a ʻthingʼ, is it a legal entity, or is it a ʻliving beingʼ? That needs to be clear.
This article pursues the concept of the ʻpersonʼ and exposes our system of ‘identification’ as a most damnable and contemptuous crime.
“I’m that person”
Imagine you arrive at the front desk of your local government office and youʼre asked if you have any personal ID. “Yes, no problem” you say, as you flash your photo ID card or passport saying, “Iʼm the person”.
Suppose a ‘person’ is actually a LEGAL ENTITY. Havenʼt you just and agreed to act on behalf of that ‘artificial person’ in your capacity as a ʻliving beingʼ? Havenʼt you have just agreed to continue the deception? And since you consented to this monstrous deception, would it shock you that corporatised ʻgovernmentsʼ use that consent to treat you as a LEGAL ENTITY, an artificial ʻpersonʼ, in all that it does and in every court in the country? Does it shock you that ʻgovernmentʼ demands every self-serving compliance it can get away with? That it owns your drivers licence, your passport, your birth certificate, your kids, your education, their education, your health, your property title, your car?
And how would you feel to learn that every time you use the word ʻpersonʼ, you endorse a criminally deceptive legal perversion that underpins the most heinous crime in human history; the theft of your life, your identity, your freedom, and that of your family and friends?
What is a “person”?
Oxford Dictionary defines ‘identification’ as:
“a means of proving a person’s identity, especially in the form of official papers”. [emphasis added]
Google provides a multitude of answers to the question – “original meaning of person?” My trusty Mac summed all of them succinctly.
ORIGIN Middle English: from Old French ‘persone’, from Latin persona, ʻactor’s mask, character in a playʼ, later ʻhuman being.ʼ
Letʼs go right back to its Latin origins – persona, actor’s mask, character in a play. The word ‘person’ denotes a mask, a presumed character, a concealment of sorts, something under the covers that only deliberate inquiry may reveal.
So what might the word ‘person’ be hiding?
