WIZARD 巫师 Wizards and warlocks were beings that resembled humans but possessed qualities of heightened physical, mental and paranormal powers. Magicians of the divinatory arts of the paranormal in pre-Christian England; a time when druid priests counseled kings. Wizards serving good kings battled warlocks serving bad kings enslaving with feudalism (see Warlock). Like antiquity, society is plagued by imposed leaders usurping democracy by commandeering resources for war profiteering fiefdoms. Ancient tales speak of cultures, cults based on justice and truth; knights of steel that pray and kneel; or Merlin assisting the heroic King Arthur battling evil pilfering villages (see Arthur, King). But society does birth the resurrection of heroic past spirits that dueled this age-old evil; the mentalist with psychic powers, the realist with a sword, and the young, idealist protégé learning their ways (see Hero). Unlike contemporary leaders, wizards and kings were leaders of the cult of justice and truth, they suffered and triumphed over the trials and tribulations like all. Caution with modern experts acting like gods, they are cultists of the strong state and military spirit; modern warlocks, be they lawyer politicians making promises; technocrats claiming expertise with accounting machines treating humanity like lifeless things on a spreadsheet; or scientists concocting viruses, chemicals and pharmaceuticals for use in profit, or worse, eugenic schemes. Autocratic technocratic tools of control are a "bag of tricks" engineering chaos to impose solutions designed not to cure, but grow established powers through public administrative monopolies in service to large-scale private monopolies.
