This Post is a
compilation of quotes and posts made by me about the events of the riots, burnings and murders of innocent cops and citizens during June of 2020.
"To live
automatically and uncritically is to be assured of at least a minimum share of
the programmed cultural heroics." - Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death
Whether it is
Black Lives Matter, who want to enslave through the lie of racism or Donald
Trump who wants to write you checks, somewhere is out to enslave you. They know
the rule book for doing it and they know how to keep you ignorant of their
efforts to manipulate you.
These people are,
to the man, pragmatists. They believe the tenets of pragmatism and they are
part of a centuries old scheme to keep you under control, to domesticate you
for obedience and to exploit your work and product. They are following a strategy,
almost without knowing it, that panders to you, that placates you and, most
importantly, that indoctrinates you into an ideology that will make you a
slave. That ideology could be a social construct of worship of the state or a religious
construct based upon a theological society; but one thing is sure, your mind is
being molded, your individuality is being destroyed and your life is being
played. You are the target of their quest for power and it is time you took
back your mind and engaged in resistance and disobedience.
"Ideology -
that is what gives evil doing its long-sought justification and gives the evildoer
the necessary steadfastness and determination. That is the social theory which
helps to make his acts seem good instead of bad in his own and others' eyes, so
that he won't hear reproaches and curses but will receive praise and
honors...Thanks to ideology, the 20th century was fated to experience evildoing
on a scale calculated in the millions. This cannot be denied, nor passed over,
nor suppressed."[1]
Consider that the ideology used to murder the Kulaks by Stalin (during
the last century) is the same ideology that allows for the burning of shops and
the theft of property in America today. It is the idea that capitalism and
profit are evil and that the state must get rid of property owners in order to
create the new state. Don't think this doesn't apply now. It does and it will.
Winter is coming, the Winter of our society and the brutality will be done in
the name of "good", of ridding our society of "evil".
That's why kids today laugh when they see a policeman beaten in the streets. It
is done in the name of good. But is it really in the name of good or is it
merely justified by an ideology that has a reverse sense of right and wrong?
"Many people
are unaware that they are complicit in acts of evildoing because dogmatic
adherence to an ideology provides them with justifications and excuses for
their actions." - Solzhentsyn
Almost every
atrocity ever done on this planet, every mass murder, every genocide, every
building burning or attack on honest and good people was done in the name of
"the good" and for the purpose of creating a better society. So be
wary of people who claim to be working for the sake of "society" or
"the common good". If they are not evil, in themselves, they likely
support some evil somewhere, safe in the thought that they are several levels
removed. They will try to convince you of their love for humanity and how they
want to do everything possible to make things better, but, make no mistake
about it, they are using stolen money which means that somewhere, someone is
suffering in order to provide for the "good" being done. In fact, the
money being donated by huge corporations comes out of profits (tax deductible)
which means if you buy from them, you could be supporting groups seeking to
destroy society.
Kulakization in
Russia:
"If a man
had a brick house in a row of log cabins, or two stories in a row of one-story
houses - there was your kulak: Get ready, you bastard, you got sixty minutes!
There aren't supposed to be any brick houses in the Russian village, there
aren't supposed to be two-story houses! Back to the cave! You don't need a
chimney for your fire! This is our great plan for transforming the country;
history has never seen the like of it."[2]
No man shall rise
above others - that's communism. That is the life they are indoctrinating you
for.
Get to know your
Business Roundtable Members. This organization of some of the biggest
corporations in the country has declared they are no longer focused on
shareholder value but on "stakeholder value". This is a code for
social justice. These corporations are developing programs to spend lots of
money on helping disadvantaged groups of all varieties by supporting
"social justice" organizations like BLM and others. Don't be
surprised if these organizations are almost ALL Democratic and Socialist in
nature. Don't be surprised if some of those organizations include anti-capitalist
groups and, in some cases, BLM. Almost every CEO on the Business Roundtable has
sent out an email to shareholders and customers about their dedication, not to
production and value, but to helping people who have suffered under the yoke of
capitalism. It is these corporations who are likely funding only leftist groups
and avoiding any conservative or pro-capitalist groups. Most of the emails they
are sending out are mushy protestations about the personal journeys of these
executives and how they learned to be more caring and empathetic to the plight
of those suffering; with a pledge to do more in the future. If you want to know
why freedom is dying in America and why the left is winning, these people are
the biggest funders of our destruction. Don’t they know that most Americans don’t
suffer anymore?
All destruction is done in the name of the good. This is how ‘good’ people become the agents of destruction. Collectivism is the idea that the group is good and any destruction done in the name of the group cleanses society of an invented ‘evil’. Psychological nihilism is the subconscious urge to destroy values most often done by the most ‘loving’ of people. People do it most fervently. The Nazis were psychological nihilists and so are many Americans today - eager to destroy the freedom and property of some for the sake of cleansing society. Once the ‘people’ give their approval, the open nihilists that the people have ‘justified’ will cleanse society of the good. Very often the good people who allowed the destruction are caught in the crossfire because the sanction of destruction will catch them up. They forgot that once they justified the destruction, there was no one there to protect them and the nihilist destroyer had only used them to justify his destruction of them.
"Many people
have no interest in handing over their property to the "collective"
and therefore, as occurred in Russia, force must be used against any who resist
the great societal transformation."[3]
"For us in
Russia, communism is a dead dog, while, for many people in the West, it is
still a living lion."[4]
“The Communist
system is a disease, a plague that has been spreading across the earth for many
years already, and it is impossible to predict what peoples will yet be forced
to experience this disease firsthand. My people, the Russians, have been
suffering from it for 60 years already; they long to be healed."[5]
"And the lie
has, in fact, led us so far away from a normal society that you cannot even
orient yourself any longer; in its dense, gray fog not even one pillar can be
seen"[6]
I don't have anything
against people who suffer but, prior to the current suffering brought onto our
society by groups funded by the Business Roundtable, the only suffering
experienced was done at the hands of "social justice" warriors who
claim to be "righting wrongs". What I object to is that these
corporations are trying to buy your business by proclaiming an adherence to
socialism. They even declared their conviction that all members of society must
be "indoctrinated" into serving their fellow man. This is not capitalism,
it is capitulation. Why do they do this? Do they believe in socialism? Sure
they do, but more to the point, they think it will get them big government
contracts if they spout the leftist line. If you look at the list, check to see
if any of the companies you invest in are there. I was surprised to learn that
I had invested in some of them. And I won’t patronize them if I can avoid it.
“Most animals
display a natural instinct to be free. When an attempt is made to capture an
animal it flees in terror or else reacts with fierce aggression. When taken
from its natural habitat and placed in captivity, its innate vigor atrophies
and is replaced by lethargy and despondency. The successful domestication of a
species therefore usually requires numerous generations of selective breeding
in order to eradicate the animal’s instinct to roam and live free.
“La Boetie
observed that in human beings this instinct for freedom is especially
pronounced. Various social factors, however, have atrophied this natural
instinct over time to the point where now the very love of liberty no longer
seems natural. One of these factors, according to La Boetie, is the powerful
influence of custom, in other words, our tendency to become habituated to the
social and political conditions we were born into.
Conformity and
Nonconformity
Conformity is a
form of fear. It is fear of being nothing and being empty; without substance.
Conformity comes to the mind that has not fully formed and does not know how to
be formed. So, the form it takes is the form of others. The conformist seeks
the comfort of others, the blanket laid down by others and the pretense that it
all came from others. Others are the "form" in con(form)ity. One
becomes like others in order to find a "form"; any form.
The nonconformist
cringes every time he sees someone conforming, and he is especially sickened
when he notices that others want him to follow their “form”. In a sense, he
hates the form of others because he sees it as false and a lie. The
nonconformist forms himself out of the resources of his mind. He doesn't do
things because others are doing them. When he sees what others are doing, he
automatically does something else. If he sees them playing checkers, he will
play chess. If he sees them playing football, he will play soccer and so on and
so forth.
Conformity breeds
"likeness" and artificiality while nonconformity breeds the love of
the real, the form of the nature-made rather than the man-made, existence
rather than non-existence, substance rather than nothingness. When the
nonconformist sees a vacuum, he will seek to fill it. When he sees the
emptiness of conformity, he will try to change it and make it into something
meaningful. He is the poet, the thinker, the doer, the maker, the creator and,
at some point, he will become what the conformists want to become. By then he
has moved on to something new.
“Just as an
animal born into captivity knows nothing of the freedom it lacks, and hence
does not resist its chains, so those born into state slavery lack the knowledge
of what it means to be free, and thus tend to accept their servitude as if it
were natural. When one spends their formative years observing those around
them, not resisting their oppressors, but accepting them and even adoring them,
the effect of custom tends to override the natural instincts of freedom and
submission becomes habitual.
“"...we
learn to swallow, and not to find bitter, the venom of servitude."
"It is true that in the beginning men submit under constraint and by
force; but those who come after them obey without regret and perform willingly
what their predecessors had done because they had to. This is why men born
under the yoke and then nourished and reared in slavery are content, without
further effort, to live in their native circumstance, unaware of any other state
or right, and considering as quite natural the conditions in which they were
born."[7]
What happens to
the “conforming” mind, after years of having its liberties destroyed and its
desire to live atrophied? Like a long-caged animal, they must strike out at any
creature that is innocent and vulnerable. Violence is the desire to inflict
pain over a perceived wrong. Nihilism is the desire to destroy values, so it is
a special kind of violence, the deepest and most evil violence of all. It is
the violence of hatred of everything without object, without purpose, without
goal; it is destruction for the sake of destruction; a statement of self-hate
derived from a feeling of nonexistence. Nihilism is the fulfillment of the “promise”
of living under slavery and the nothingness it provokes within the individual.
Nihilism is hatred of self because, deep inside, the mind and the body know
that it should have fought and did not. Despair breeds hatred of values and
hatred of life and living. Try sitting in a cage for a few days and then
observe what you have become.
We think that what
we see today on the streets is new. But it has been done before. It was done by
the Romans and they wrote the rules about how to dominate and rule over men. In
order to rule, they had to establish the basis of man's character and they had
to mold it carefully and make sure he worked for them without resistance. This
is how they did it:
· Collectivism (group-think) was how they divided men into warring
groups.
· Moral dualism (good versus evil) was how they created men's hated
enemies.
· Altruism (charity, taxes and self-sacrifice) was how they stole
man's substance and robbed him of his desire for the good.
· Anti-reason/Faith/Irrationality/Emotionalism was how they kept men
confused, docile and obedient.
· If men rebelled, they killed them and erased their history, their
books and their identities - then they gave the survivors new books to replace
their own.
· They gave men religion and Roman gods in order to wipe out their
own gods.
This is how they
plan on controlling you right now. Today's Romans think they are smarter than
you and they think they can control history. But they can't. As with the
Romans, today's dictators are inept and incompetent and they can't rule free
men if those men choose to resist. The question is: Are you going to stand up
for truth or give in to their lies, extortions and tyranny?
"A people
enslaves itself, cuts its own throat, when, having a choice between being
vassals and being free men, it deserts its liberties and takes on the yoke,
gives consent to its own misery, or, rather, apparently welcomes it."[8]
“"Let the
will of the state act, then, instead of that of the individual. Let an
institution be created which shall have for its object to keep correct
doctrines before the attention of the people, to reiterate them perpetually,
and to teach them to the young; having at the same time power to prevent
contrary doctrines from being taught, advocated, or expressed. Let all possible
causes of a change of mind be removed from men's apprehensions. Let them be
kept ignorant, lest they should learn of some reason to think otherwise than
they do. Let their passions be enlisted so that they may regard private and
unusual opinions with hatred and horror."[9]
"In our
dream...the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding
hand...We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into
philosophers or men of learning or of science. We are not to raise up from
among them authors, orators, poets, or men of letters. We shall not search for
embryo great artists, painters, musicians. Nor will we cherish even the humbler
ambition to raise up from among them lawyers, doctors, preachers, politicians,
statesmen, of whom we now have ample supply...For the task that we set before
ourselves is a very simple as well as a very beautiful one: to train these
people as we find them for a perfectly ideal life just where they are...an
idyllic life under the skies and within the horizon, however narrow, where they
first open their eyes."[10]
“Another tactic
for engineering consent used by ancient tyrants was analogous to what we call
the welfare-state today. La Boetie notes that on selective days of the year,
ruling classes used to distribute bread and wine and a little money to their
subjects. And soon after those who were content and satiated would cry out,
"Long live the King." "The fools did not realize that they were
merely recovering a portion of their own property and that their ruler could
not give them what they were receiving without having first taken it from
them."[11]
Recall the
"Cares Act" and the checks sent to us by our government
“"The most
erroneous assumption is to the effect that the aim of public education is to
fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their
intelligence...Nothing could be further from the truth. The aim of public
education is not to spread enlightenment at all; it is simply to reduce as many
individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a
standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in
the United States, whatever the pretensions of politicians...and that is its
aim everywhere else."[12]
“"...what
shocks is that we should so eagerly have adopted one of the very worst aspects
of Prussian culture: an educational system deliberately designed to produce
mediocre intellects, to hamstring the inner life, to deny students appreciable
leadership skills, and to ensure docile and incomplete citizens - all in order
to render the populace "manageable".[13]
We must be
willing to question everything we are taught. I have long fought to understand
history and have noticed over the last two or so decades that our children are
now being taught revised history that has a political agenda. Teachers today
must be willing to challenge bad ideas and realize they have a major
responsibility to preserve the principles that made our country just, free and
prosperous. If we succumb to lies, we are lost, and the responsibility will
fall squarely on our teachers. If they do not question collectivism and the
effort to bring about group thinking and conformity, they will be destroying
the principle of independent thinking and the independent mind. We must not
accept what the group is trying to do - we must challenge the group regardless
of which group it is. All group thinking is dangerous. We can see the
devastation caused by it in our streets today.
"We have to
condemn publicly the very idea that some people have the right to repress
others. In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no
sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a
thousandfold in the future."[14]
“You have heard
it said that this is an age of moral crisis. You have said it yourself, half in
fear, half in hope that the words had no meaning. You have cried that man’s
sins are destroying the world and you have cursed human nature for its
unwillingness to practice the virtues you demanded. Since virtue, to you,
consists of sacrifice, you have demanded more sacrifices at every successive
disaster. In the name of a return to morality, you have sacrificed all those
evils which you held as the cause of your plight. You have sacrificed justice
to mercy. You have sacrificed independence to unity. You have sacrificed reason
to faith. You have sacrificed wealth to need. You have sacrificed self-esteem
to self-denial. You have sacrificed happiness to duty.
“You have
destroyed all that which you held to be evil and achieved all that which you
held to be good. Why, then, do you shrink in horror from the sight of the world
around you? That world is not the product of your sins, it is the product and
the image of your virtues. It is your moral ideal brought into reality in its
full and final perfection. You have fought for it, you have dreamed of it, and
you have wished it, and I-I am the man who has granted you your wish.[15]
"Let your
credo be this: Let the lie come into the world, let it even triumph. But not
through me."[16]
"Resist
much, obey little; Once unquestioning obedience, once fully enslaved; Once
fully enslaved, no nation, state, city, of this earth, ever afterward resumes
its liberty.[17]
Let the liar come
into the light. Let him have the platform. Let's see him so we can judge him.
He will show who he is and what he wants. Then we can decide..."when in
the course of human events."
Now is not the
time to smooth over differences. Now is the time to take a stand. Here are the
choices: Individual rights, constitutional protections and limited government
versus re-distribution, altruism (exploitation) and collectivism (slavery to
the group). Take your choice.
